deterioration. The state therefore bears three fourths of the expense of the roads upkeep to the towns one quarter. The highways in the town of Berlin known as the state aid roads are as follows: from the kilby House past the American Paper Goods towards the Blue Hills dis trict; from the New Britain city line to the top of Damon's hill; from Morses hill in East Berlin to the bridge by the East Berlin Milling Go. al the Cromwell line; the Beach Swamp road.
 The East Berlin road it will be noted is not listed as a state aid road. Why this road is not under this classification has not been eXplaine ed. Very few people in the town of Der lin use this road it being a main high way from the shore to New Britain. In fact all the cities north and north west of New Britain use the East Berlin road to get to Middletown and the shore resorts There is no logical reason why this road should not be a state aid roads. If the town au thorities can put this on the list, they will accomplish more good than any administration preceding them.
