ASKING FITZGERALD ABOUT
 NEW HAVEN. TAx COILECTION


 The republican state central commit tee issued the following statement on Saturday:
 MT. FitzGerald in hfas feverish eff forts to keep away from the snojee. Of his own financial record, has not re- ferred to the fact that tax collections in New Haven have always been over estimated during his administration 50 that deficits which always appear at the end of the year in New Haven are not apparent in their entirety in the estt- mates given out to the public the first part of the year. We call MT. FitzGe.- ald's attention to the statement in his organ in New Haven, issued editorial,y the day after his election as mayor, in which, thet statement was made, :. There is no doubt that the board of finance has estimated the probable income hb- orally so as not to be compelled to raise the tax rate during this period of wide spread distress and business depression. To have estimated this income conservs- lively would have meant the imposition of thirty mill tax rate. :. .. The board of finance therefore simply had choice between estimating the city's income iiberally in order to hold the tax rate down or estimating it conservativeiy and running the tax rate up. They chose the former course. In our judg- ment this action of the finance board added to the deficit that the city al, ready has Y"
 1 Does Mir. FitzGeraid remember th, controversy between his board of a- nance and his tax collector in New Ha- ven back in June when t was shown 1 that the apparent method of his admin | istration in New Haven was to over-es- l innate tax collections so that the eSti-
 mates of running the city at the frs. I part of the year be radded regardless | of the fact that at the close of the year there has always been an ever increas-
 ing deficit? We would quote the fci- | lowing which was stated publicly by
 Mir. FitzGerslds tax collection depar..-
 ment at the time of this controversy "On the personal tax enrolment 5i l 1921 there are 75383 names, including ! duplicates and names of persons exempt to the number of 24S6. Now if every person on the enrolment, including those exempt, should pay the persona, tax, there would be collected s150,766 The board of finance, however, estimat ] ed that 14S per cent or $225,000 wouid
 be collected this year on this item Therefore, it is up to the collector !, collect 14S per cent or about $75,00t
 more than is collectiblef ?
 Gan MT. FitzGeraId explain this?
 Does he know about it?
 Does he know that his tax collector | in New Haven last June publicly stated that s1,420,349 had been the total mis, calculation in the amount of taxes tt 1 be collected during MT. FitzGerald l term of office?
 ."If MT. FitzGerald believes that this l is sound financial arrangement we can not agree with him nor do we beliey; | the people of Connecticut will agree l with him. If the facts as stated are in
 correct we would be pleased to hays Mir. FitzGerald come out in the oper and discuss them.

Hand-carving is invariably union
made.
Composition-earving Is unfailingly
nou-union made.
So when union men purchase furni-
ture they should be careful and dis
eliminating by demanding hand.
carved furniture. Composition orna-
ment Is nothing much more than a
coloted putty that contracts, expands
cracks and erumbles, and Is moulded
by unskilled labor into the shape Of
carving. The use Of composition
ornament has made the trade very
unreliable for employment; and has
forced carvers TO leave the trade for
other occupations; and makes il 50
that apprentices can seldom be in
duced to learn the trade: Therefore
we would urge that all union mer
give this the widest publicity.
