| berg's voice of the council speech,
| saying that the chamber Of commerce
! was closer tofthe people. Mr.. White
speaking for the Chamber of Som
! merce, said he favored two-man
| board of assessors, appointed by the
| mayor. This was the original plan Of
| the charter revision committee and
| was adopted by it.
The only issue on all the charter
| changes, he thought, was regarding
| the assessors and he believed it wouNl
| be only fair to refer it to the people.
John w. Allen, a member of the
| board of compensation and assess
ment, spoke strongly in favor of three
! full time assessors appointed by the
| mayor. He didn't think the city
! could afford to scrap" over "a few
| dollars on such an unimportant mat
ter.
Representative Schultz.
Representative Schultz referred to
| the fact that he was member of
! the charter revision committee AMI
had pledged himself to help New
Britain get a better charter. He fav-
! ored a city court but didn't favor high
! salaries.
Bipartisan Plan Beautiful Theory.
Regarding bipartisan boards, Mr..
| Schultz said it was a beautiful theory
but did not work out in practice. He
| referred to the dispute over the Sc
| lection of fire department apparatus
| and the choosing Of patrol driver.
| He believed it would be step back
| ward to abolish the board of public
! safety. Two boards might spend
more than one, he thought. Two
boards would increase salaries also,
he said.
Mr. Schultz advocated permanent
man and two part time men for the
board of assessors.
The appointment Of assessors does
not take that department out of pol
tiles, Mr. Schultz said. He referred
to a recent appointment to the board
when, he said, two democrats made
a very vigorous campaign for the Of
fee One of them thought he had it
UP to the very afternoon of the APP
pointment, but the other got it.
"Politics Not Efficiency
..Jt, was not matter Of efficiency
bu+ of politics." Mr. Schultz said.
Taking the power of electing asses
sors from the people is a reflection on
the people he SAID. He did not press
his suit in favor of their elections,
however.
Alfred e. Magnell, former clerk OF
the board OF public safety, sald IL
would be for the best interests CT
the city to separate the police ana

fire departments and abolish the
board of public safety.
Mayor Quigley expressed the fear
that politics would enter into the case
too much should asse ssors be elected.
He favored two permanent assessors
appointed by the mayor.
QuigIey Replies to Schultz.
1T has been insinuated by Repre-
sentative Schultz that the last ap-
pointment to the board of assessors
was made because of politics." said
the mayor. That was not so-it was
a matter of efficiency"
The mayor spoke strongly in favor
of the separation of the police and
fire departments Ito get politics out
of them"
President Christ spoke against any
referendum on the ground of econ
omy. ..
Another alleged error in the draft
was discovered by Judge Cooper as
the section regarding giving the
mayor the power to break a tie on
the board of public safety had been
omitted.
Edward F. Hail. who was previously
IN favor of electing assessors, said
he was satisfied he was mistaken and
was now in favor of their appoint
ment by the mayor. He favored three
assessors, one permanent official.
- II. Curtis was opposed to allow
ing the mayor To break any ties eX-
lstlng on bipartisan boards He
was also against separating the police
and fire departments.

that is not done it would be best to
leave the board at four. There is
plenty of political patronage now in
New Britain because of the frequent
changes in, the parties in power. He
did not believe the assessorships
should be made a political plaything.
Councilman Z. J. Danberg urged
the committee to listen to the voice
of the council which is the voice of
the people. He was in favor of no
change in the present system of APP
pointing four assessors The council
spoke in favor of a city court and he
asked the committee to listen to it's
voice in that respect also. Mayor
Qulgley's veto on the ground Of
economy was very commendable, he
said, but he didn't think the city
court would be as expensive as the
mayor feared.
Alderman M. Irving testers views
regarding the assessors conceded with
those of Alderman Warwick. He did
not care whether there were three or
four but there should be at least one
permanent man. He didn't favor the
elective system and thought public
sentiment favored three appointed by
the mayor, one of them to devote
all his time to the office. Alderman
Jester feared that political debts
might be paid off under an elective
system.
Dispute Over Referendum.
Corporation Counsel Cooper report
ed an error in the bill as presented by
the city, saying that it did not permit
Senator Klett took issue with Judge
Cooper on the point of a referendum
and said there had frequently been
amendments to the charter without
any referendum. He spoke in favor
or three assessors, appointed by the
mayor, one to be a permanent man.
Senator Klett spoke in favor of a
city court to do away with justice
courts.
Senator Kiett apparently leaned
toward the majority report to the
common council regarding the city
court.
Judge Cooper replied that the
charter revising committee intended
the incorpora ton Of a referendum in
its report.
O. II. Ccrtis expressed himself as in
ldVOI OIL the appointment Oh aSSeSSOiS.
Regarding the number of assessors,
he said at consolidation some Of the
city officials were in favor of nom
partisan boards as it made all par
ties satisfied because of the distri
button of plums.
Mr.. Curtis said the democratic par
ty is not entitled to more than one,
member Of the board of assessors
He thought it should be left to the
council to say whether an assessor
shall be a full time man and what
salaries shall be paid.
Against Abolition of Safety Board.
4. "Unwise,'' was the term used by
Mr.. Curtis regarding the proposition
to place the police and fire depart
ments under separate commissions
He didn't consider it necessary to
have eight men and two clerks to run
those departments. Other cities, lar
ger than New Britain, have one man
jurisdiction in each department.
Bipartisan boards inject politics
into city business, Mr.. Curtis said. He
spoke of one regulation which says
appointments to the police and fire
departm ents must be politically equal.
In this Mr.. Curtis was wrong as this
regulation has been abolished.
