morning and who died on his wa. to the New Britain General hospital
 To Issue Warrants.
 Prosecutor C. F. Lewis stated last evening that within the next few days he expects to issue warrants for the arrest of delinquent personal tax payers. He also stated that a larger percentage of the personal taxes have been collected this year than any year since he has been tax collector. They are due in February but the time limit There are several however, who have failed to pay and Prosecutor Lewis in tends to collect.
 MT. Lewis also stated that the property taxes are coming in as well as can be expected and that he has met with little trouble in his collec- tions. There are some who have been unable to pay because of the fact that the head of the family has been out of work or there has been a great deal of sickness.
 This has been remedied, it has been asserted, as the labor situation has bettered itself in Berlin and there are very few people out of work.
 Cutters On Turnpike.
 Although there has been no official word received by local authorities from the state highway department in Hartford, it is understood that plans have been discussed for the erection of gutters and curbs along the Berlin ,il 10 ,ofn n the bridge down in the flats.
 The property owners along this stretch of the roadway have been com plaining during the past few weeks because of the washouts along the side of the road which have been caused by the heavy rains. 1nasmuch as there are no gutters along the road the water, in time of rain, rushes from the banks on the south side across the concrete road and down on- to the property of the people living on the northside of the road.>
 Some time ago, it is understood that First Selectman Carter took up the matter with the highway officials but they want the town to pay part of the expense. Mir Carter, however, feels that it is a state road and that the state should pay for the gu.ters Some of the people have expressed the opinion that the Worthington Fire district should take up the matter with the highway officials.
 There are still others who believe, that the town should ray a part of the expense as was done about nine years ago when the gutters and curbs were laid from Pennington road to Hudson street. At this time it cost could be learned the highway depart ment figures that it would cost ap- s5,ooo to put the gutters and curbing in place from Farming. ton road to the bridge. Further ac- ton on the part of the town officials or the state highway department will be watched with interest by local resi- ients
