SOCIALISTS ARE AGAINST
 THE PERSONAL TAX
Want Council to Direct Representa- lives and Senator to Favor Bill Re- peaIlne 1t.

At their regular meeting Thursday evening in their rooms in the Stead building, the Norwich socialist party recorded it's opposition to the g per sonal tax, denouncing it among other things as unjust and un-Amerfean. and passed resolutions containing request that the common council in- struct the senator and representatives from this district to demand the pas- sage of a bill repeating the tax.
 The text of their opposition was con- tained in the following resolution:
 Whereas The electors of this city pay on the average s75 each in excise internal revenue and tariff taxes as a yearly contribution to the support of the federal government, and
 Whereas, The revenue for the sup port of municipal government is raised largely by a tax on homes which tax is paid by home owners and those who rent the dwellings in which they live, and
 Wheeras. The properties of the great rnanufa curing and railway corpora tions are much t1ndertaxed, and
 Whereas. The burden on the workers has been increased by the imposition of personal tax of s2, and
 Whereas, The said personal tax is unjust, iniquitous and an attempt to revive an ancient and American irnpest on the heads of the people;
 Therefore. We are opposed to the personal tax and demand the repeal of the law infficting 1t and request the common council of Norwich to pass resolution instrueting the sen ator and representatives from the Norwich district to demand the pas sage of a bill for the repeal of the personal tax.
 Another feature of the meeting was a paper by K. Raisifi upon the topic Inheritance and Environment, which was greatly enjoyed by the members
