Driver Has to Chase Boy To Take Him to HOspital

Milo Romano, aged 10. of 121 Whiting street, suffered injuries abo.t the back when he was struck by an automobile owned by Charles F. Dawley of 27Sla Park street and driven by Arthur r. Dawley of the same address, about 7:45 last eve- ming on Park street. He was treated at New Britain General hos- pital after MT. Dawley chased him. tho boy, apparently more frighten- ed than hurt. attempting to run away after being struck.
 MT. Dawley reported to Lteuten- ant Bamforth at police headquarters that he was driving west on Park street and had just passed Maple street when the boy, who was play- ing with three companions, ran from the north side of the street and was struck by the right front fender. Carl Zotter of S5 Shuttle Meadow avenue. who was in the automobile, corroborated MT. Daw- ley's version of the accident.

boards to investigate such petitions thoroughly, and make recommenda- tions concerning the individuals. Merely recommending blanket in creases is not enough. It is not good procedure for the Common Council to attempt to separate the sheep from the goats, with no guarantee that the work will be well perform ed.
 It is time for a little reform in this matter. Let the boards take up each case individually and make in- dividual recommendations. The boards are more apt to know the exact conditions in connection with the men under their jurisdiction on the salary list. If this method were adopted there would be less likeli- hood of individual injustices brought about by the inability of the Council to judge the situation.
 The salary committee of the Coun- cil, which in effect has the final arbitration of the recommendations is expected, of course, to guard the city's money like it would it's own: but on the other hand it should take care not to make it likely for the city to lose the services of some valuable employe through too parsimonious attitude It is for this reason that better information re- garding individual cases from the boards and commissions would be of such reaching advantage.

CHORAL SOCIETY AN ASSET TO CITY

The New Britain Choral society directors are having the annual dis cussion of what 10 do during the present season. Our advice is to put the best step forward and continue in the path of the past, which has been quite successful.
 The choral society is too import ant an asset in the cultural life of the community to permit any other plan to be embarked upon.
 There is much effort and expense incident to giving choral works upon the high standard of past years, perhaps the expense might be cut down without impairing the stand ard. This is matter for the di- rcctorS. At any rate, the city needs the choral society at least once a year. Its splendid presentation of masterpieces Is a credit to the city.

JOB FOR ROtRDS, NOT
 FOR COUNCIL

Why is it that the various city boards or commissions cannot settle the annual salary increases them selves without passing the buck to the Common Council and thus fore ing that body to grapple with ques- tions It is really not in a position 10 settle properly?
 By provisions of the city charter the annual petitions for salary ad- justments must be made in pcccm- Der. These are first made 10 the boards.
 In the past the boards have passed them. with blanket recommenda- tions to the Common Council for ad . judication, giving that body many hectic troubles. Councllmen and aldermen. knowing as much about how much Bill Jones in some city department ought to receive as they know Of the value of q Persian rug dating from 1432 are expected to come 10 an exact and satisfactory conclusion.

TIME TO ACT ON INCINERATOR

It is time indeed that some defi- nite action were taken regarding the proposal to construct a city gar bage incinerator. This question has been a subject for desultory debate for some years, and though nothing definite has eventuated during that time there has been no disagreement regarding the advisability of such an improved method of garbage dis posal. Only the cost, it seems. has been holding back officials from taking the proper step forward one they fully realize must be taken some time.
 The committee of investigation this year consists of four members of the Common Council. two mem bers of the health board, the super intendent of health, and the city engineer. More data apparently is needed, and such a committee If it goes to work wholeheartedly, ought to be able to get all the conviction in the way of data it needs. It is to be hoped that at the meeting of the committee tonight the spirit pre- vailing will be one that the time for action has arrived.
 And after all the data, de- tails and deductions are in, weigh ed, analysed and dissected the next move will be 10 recommend that an appropriation for an incinerator be included in the next municipal budget. This done, the city should appropriate the money. It was Mark Twain, or some other cele- brity, who said the way to proceed is to proceed. The way to get a garbage incinerator-which seem ingly everyone agrees is a prime requisite-is to proceed to get one.

While nothing authoritative could be learned. it may be said that the registrars will withdraw their peti- ton for an increase in salary and will content themselves with s70O a year.
