 ID BUILDING CODE Objections Expected at Town
 Meeting Monday Evening ADOPTION IS ANTICIPATED

hCJuNi l"Et IbNi
 lin Storc-Local Man Elected to
 40 and s" Onicc-Othcr Items.
 Popular interest is mounting daily as the date draws near for the spc- cial town meetiGg recently called by the selcctmen for the purpose of discussing the proposed building lines and permits law and for con- sderaton of the purchase of two properties for the school board. The meeting will be held in the town hall auditorium on Monday evening at s o'clock. daylight saving time.
 While the proposed purchase of land will have it's share of discus sion, the chief item of interest will tc consideration Of the building laws recently drawn up by a special com mittee.
 Action on the matter was delayed through the death of two of the members of the original committee adn at the last town meeting, First Selectman George R. Carter, a mem Der of tho committee. announced than an announcement would be forthcoming in the near future. No action was taken by the committee until the unexpected announcement in the early part of tkis week brouiSt the matter 10 Bcrlnites' at tnntion with little time to consider the proposed resolutions.
 Popuar opinion on the matter favors the adoption of the building lines and the building permit law. although sentiment against the measure has been expressed in sev- eral parts of the town. Such law would have no bearing on any buildings already erected. The pur- pose of the law would be to pre- vent the haphazard building of cer- tain types of constructions in resi- dontial parts and to minimize as much as possible the inferior grade of buildings which have recently been erected.
 Two sections which will feel the effects of the new proposed law more than others will be tue Fair Grounds property and the Treasure Fields property The issuance of permits would, in a large part, prevent the construction of cheap buildings.
 A large part of the opposition to the proposed law will doubtless come from these two districts, home own ITS in that locality claiming that the passing of such restrictions will pre- vent the home builder with only a .;,nall amount of capital from locat- ing in town.
 On the other hand. real estate ,,ealers point out that home builders will not choose Berlin for the site of their constructions unless some evidence of official restrictions pro- feet their dwellings from dcprcciat- ing conditions liable to arise from haphazard building. The new law, .nev claim, will not restrict building hut on the other hand will encour- age the erection of d finer type or dwelling in this community.
