CHARTER REVISION
 HEARINGS SHORTLY
Many Important Changes Will Be
 Recommended This Year

The charter revision committee re- gently appointed by Mayor Quigley in accordance with the vote of the common council at it's October ses- sion will meet soon. As designated in the resolution by Alderman Cur tis, the commission consists of mem hers of the council, the representa- tives to the General Assembly, and the corporation counsel Changes in the charter have been quite frequent and were necessitated by the unex- pected rapid growth of this city.
 There seems to a general opinion existing in the minds of members of the common council that that body should have more authority over the other city commissions. Under the charter as it now stands the commits sOns are to be appointed by the may or and they are responsible to him and him alone, he, of course, always being responsible to the people, In the administration of departmental affairs the council is without author ity. Authority to enter into contracts and approval of them must be se- cured from the council. The coun- Cil is without authority to order any definite action but may request such action Some of the departments are limited as to the amount which they may expend without the authority of the council while other departments are unlimited. It is the opinion of the members of the council that the council should have a closer rela- tionship in general with all the com- missions. Some charter change rela- tive to this may be introduced
 Alderman PaoneSsa has from time to time brought to the attention of the council the advisability of having all the city revenues collected in one office. He has urged that taxes, wa ter rents, receipts for licenses, and the like be received in one office, Under present conditions the city has a per sonal tax collector, property tax

The Herald is in receipt of a conl- munication from the Polish Citizens Committee of the Polish National De- partment which it does not feel at liberty to print because numerous as- mane to the subject originally under discussion the possibility of pogroms among the Jewish population in Po- land. The communication airs com mercial rivalry between the Polish and Jewish people in New Britain, matter that mas no bearing on the situation abroad #~
 This is an age in which all men must have mental breadth and no word, spoken or written which would have 8 tendency to promote racial hatred, should be given circulation. Distrust should not be engendered, .Du mon end. the ameliorat ton of human suffering and universal democracy.
 Readers of The Herald have been interested in the duel between Dr. Rupert and Mr. Levitt, which has occupied a prominent place in the forum of this paper for the past week. Concerning this dispute, the communication Of the Polish Citizens Committee says:
 The Polish people of New
 Britain are entirely dissusted with the controversy that has arisen without serious cause. The matter was not represented in light, truth, justice and equal ity. Amicable settlement should
 have been fostered and striven
 for. Men of common sense could
 not have used the language and
 expressions of the parties of the
 controversy.
 The communiCat tiOn. which is signed by L. Bojnowsl>i, ends with the fol- lowing sound advice:
 Tn conclusion we want to say
 that the controversy must be left
 to people who do not recognize
 the value of time and the good
 qualities Of people. It should
 behoove us to live with others in
 peace With a justful considera-
 ton for their aspirations: we
 should elevate our ideals to sym
 pathy for people of other coun-
 tries who live under conditions of
 oppression, circumstances other
 than ours.
