ably a silent one-the atmosphere of
his home, created mainly by the first
lady in the land, Mrs. Coolidge. 1t is

more difficult to take action in violent
antagonism to the atmosphere which

Into such home there comes a great
question when liberal views are eX-

change.
One of the most interesting pictures
of Mrs. Coolidge is painted in the new
book "Boudoir Mirrors of Washing

OUR TAX RATE

Almost everyone wants lower taxes.
President Coolidge has made a strong
appeal to the people because he. has
seized upon this popular ISSUE II is
quite possible that the democratic
party will try to go Secretary Mellon
one better and provide what it con-
siders better plan. Be that as it
may.
In New Britain most people do want
lower taxes, although the remark is
heard occasionally, and from men who
are not considered wealthy, that our
taxes are almost too low. There may
be more who will echo this now rare
remark when. they learn that out of
165 cities in the United States with a
population of 10000 or over it has
been found that only IL cities pay less
per $1,000 than does New Britain. In
other words if you own property here
you pay less to keep it up and have
city protection and city service than
you would if'you lived in any other
