 The supper was served at 6.30 o'clock to the large number of members pres ont. After the oyster chowder menu had been taken care of there was a finely rendered solo by Rev Alexander H.

Abbott and Gen. William A. Aiken comprised the committee ap pointed to consider the adyisability of holding a lecture course, stated that two out of three prominent speakers they set out to secure have consented to come to Norwich.

Henderson. Renounces. Treaty,

Prof. Yandell Henderson, of Yale who did not synpathize with the all lies at the outbreak of the war. but who gave valuable service to this country when it entered the conflict, has written the following to Senator Brandegee:
 440 Prospect, Street,
 o December g, 1919. My dear Senator Brandegee:
 I want to urge you to do all in your power to hasten the passage by con- gress of the joint resolution declaring the war ended.
 Thus only can you effectively re- move the possibility of America un- derwriting any phase of the cruel and imperialistie treaties framed at Paris.
 So far from this being step against freedom and ultimate peace in Europe, one need only read the state ments of leading European liberals. such as Lord Bryce, regarding some of the features of+the treaties, for in- stance the treatment of Tyrol, to real ize how fearful a crime it would have been if America had accepted these treaties without reservations, and had guaranteed them with the lives and wealth of her citizens.
 By the same sign, the best outcomc

harnessed. But when an industry knocks at our door and asks what the tax rate is. that is the last we hear from them, he said.
 Mir. Church said he believes the town should be gone over at least every ten years. But it is not a healthy job for the assessors. he added. At present Norwich has a grand list of $1a 2o9,33I, but it should, be not less than S35,000;- 900, said MT. Church. and our tax rate
 should not be over IS mills on the, dollar Merfden lids. < tax rate of about is mills, nlade possible through
 the increase in 1908 ot the. tax list by
 50 petecent. In 1879 the population of
 Norwich was about 15.000 and the grand dist about S14,000.0O0. Tn 1906
 the population was nearly s25O00. but
 the grand list was about where it was
 in 1SF9. s Mir. Church says he7is of the opinion that the city and town should
 be under one government>as he thinks 1.-two, governments are more expensive than one It is much easier to get industries with a high tax list than with a high tax rate. It took over two years 10 establish . card system in the as- sessors' office Before that it was practically impossible to find out who owned any particular piece of, property 1 unless the records were searched
 | Some people say if you are going to raise the grand list you should go on Broadway and Washington street. Mir 1 Church said he believes that this is a mistake He spoke of a, certain p1ec. of property in the city which sold fo1
 over s10eo o0o and which is in the tax
 list for $5o,00O.
 l After his talk. which was of about ltwentT-fiVe minutes duration MT Church answered a number of ques- l tions, and there was a general discus
 sion on the valuations in the city ant l of various methods which might bt
 used to remedy tte local situation. rising vote of thanks was then giver MT. Church for his talk. The gather ] ing broke LID about 9.15 o'clock.
