Want KENS|NGTON
man As SELECTMAN
Residents Say Berlin Street Is
: Dead Issue in Towns Growth
CARTER is CRITICIZED
Stevens Declines to Run for Select
Inan-Grangers Have Interesting
Meeting at ADMINISTRATORS of the
Towns Churches-Other Items.

This morning we'll known business
men of Kensington expressed the
opinion that man from that section
of the town should be elected to the
/. office of first selectman at the next
election. They stated that Kensing-
ton is now the growing and striving
part of the community and that Ber-
lin street, as far as business growth is
concerned, is dead issue. Kensing-
ton is the center of the town, as all
the manufacturing plants of any size
are located there, they say.
Therefore, they voiced the opinion
that Kensington man with sound
business sense should be elected to
the office at least for one term to see
what could be done by man from
that section.
According to these men, First Sell
ectman Carter is not doing much on
the roads in Kensington. HE is
talking a lot and is not saying any
thing, stated one of the men, a man
prominent in one of Kensington's
business enterprises.
They stated that the roads in Ken
sington. are for the most part in bad
condition. They said that the Christ
ian Lane road is exceptionally bad
and that If the town would scrape
that road once a week for month 1t
would present good appearance and
would be suitable for traffic.
But he doesn't do that, they said.
He goes over the road once a year
and then doesn't touch them again
for another year.. If the roads
we're scraped instead Of filled with
cinders the town would have
thoroughfares to be proud of, they
stated. ~,
They also scored the first select
man on the placing of the traffic
cops in the town. They said that
there are three on the turnpike, one
at Flannery's corner and another at
the intersection of the Middletown
pad and Berlin street and another
walks around and draws his pay.
THE intersection at Upson's corner
is lone of the most dangerous sections
of road in the town." they claimed. |
There is no officer there on Sun
