NEW LONDON AND ITS BOND ISSUES

lt developed at the meeting that there was need for an increase in the water supply and that ic why the commissioners asked for a substan- tial bond issue. But the plans of the water commissioners do not include Miller pond, but rather a pipe line from another source to connect with Lake Konomoc. The bond issue was authorized by the city meeting. with all power of expenditure left with the water commissioners. and that means elimination of the Miller pond deal.
 The same city meeting voted to stand by Former Mayor Rogers agreement with the United States Housing corporation. whereby the city is to pay over to the corporation $54, for streets and sidewalks, and which exempts the property from direct tax ation, so long as the property remains within government control. The pro- ject was opposed by Mayor Morgan and the corporation counsel and it was supposed that this much discuss ed issue had reached the end. SubSe- quently the mayor announced that, acting under advice of the corporation counsel, he would not affix his official seal to the document, not yet, and in QeIldnC6 city meeting assembled. Perhaps Mayor Morgan is right. but it sure is an unusual proceeding. All the bond issues authorized by the legislature have now been approved by city meet ing, including the half million issue rejected at a previous meeting for the improvement of the water front for commercial purposes.
 When authority to issue about s2,- 100000 in bonds was favored by legis- lative committee it was explained by representatives of the city that there was no intention to have these bonds issued at the same time. as that would push the city of New London away over the debt limit. It is there fore presumed that the bonds will not be issued complete for several years although the action taken would indi- cate the contrary. It was explained that there is urgent need for the is suance of the water bonds and the half million for the junior high school and some other blocks of bonds.
 If the legislative committee agree ment is violated. it means a burden some taxation and that the owner of the little mortgaged home will be the heaviest sufferer, as he has no come back. He has no tenants upon which to saddle the increase in taxation in increased rents. There has already been -an increase in valuation and ir tax rate as well, and the taxes next due will be the high record for New London. But the worst is yet tc come, if the people continue to pass every recommendation of the court or common council and the members or that body continue to exercise the power in general salary increases. IT the present era of high cost of living the average taxpayers ought to be en- titled to just little bit of considera- tion.
