1t is no easy matter to make pro
vision for the future in the matter Of
public improvements as is illustrated
in what is designated as the Pequot
avenue cut, where Pequot avenue joins
Howard street at the overhead bridge
of the New York, New Haven 81 Hart
ford railroad. When this cut was first
bridged it was of the same width as
the one that leads the way to Fort
Trumbull and to the freight depot.
Just about twenty-five years ago there
was necessity for widening the Pequot
avenue cut to accommodate public traffic
and it was decided that as the change
was to be made TO make the cut wide
enough fo- all future uses, and the
railroad company and = committee OF
the court Of common council had sup
posed that this had been done.
But the traffic has SO much increased
since that time that the cut is now IN
adequate and is considered one or the
danger spots of the city and almost
equal TO the crossing 10 the Groton
ferry near the railroad station. Some

There is general desire that politics
will be given no consideration in the
appointment of the new official, as he
should be free to act for the good of
the whole people and to do his duty
without fear or favor, and this could
not be done if he was bound hand and
foot by strong political lines. The Of
ficials should be competent and
courteous and his coming welcomed
by all who use weights and measures,

ty OF square dealing.
