The establishment of Terryville avenue as q state road is the wish of many local people and Terryville residents are also in favor of fur nishing a direct route between that town and Hartford.
 The new state road between the Stafford section Of the city and the town Of Pennington, which was opened a few weeks ago. affords a direct route between Bristol and Hartford and also reduces the mile age. IL is understood that the original plans called for the opening up of Terryville avenue as a state highway but so much other work was lined up that it was deferred until later.
 Pennington avenue at the present time furnishes a speed way for motorists and 1t is understood that requests have been mada for the as signment Of a state policeman to discourage speeding.

PLAINV|LLE FACES
 BIGGER TAX RATE
Grand List Must Be Raised to Meet Expense Budget
ESTIMATE IS INCREASED
kimmel Gets Opinion on Taxes on Martin Property-Plain,illc Blues Meet Corbin Red Sox Tomorrow Churches on Standard Time

Plainville faces either an increase Tn its grand list or a boost in the tax rate for the coming year in or der to meet the budget of expenses as outlined in the 1927-2S estimate of the board of selectmen and, con- talned in the town report, copies of which are now available.
 The total amount of expenses es- tlmated for the town during the coming fiscal year is S171.S10.25, an increase of approximately s26, ,ooo over the budget of last year Added 10 this IS the S5,000 appropriated st the recent town meeting for state aid road work in the town, making a grand total of increase in expenses Of approximately s31.O0n.
 Nlth the tax rate at the present time at 2o mills, in order 10 meet the required expenditures as outlin- ed in the appropriat ations for the Va rlous items in the budget, it will be necessary to increase the grand list Sl.250, ,00o or else set the tax rate in the neighborhood of 30 mills.
 The grand list last year was sS.- 400, o,h00 and al 25 mills. this will not be sufficient 10 cover the increases as outlined in the town report. IL will be necessary at least to raise the grand list to s7,65o,o ,o00 to find money enough 10 cover the total amount of expenses as figured out.
 4 slight raise in the grand list would mean q raise in the tax rate 10 2S or % mills while no raise at all will mean 30 mills or higher.
 The estimated expenses Of the town for the coming fiscal year show increases in several departments that must he met. The expenses for the schools net is given at sa5.- 6S5.@5 while those of the town treasurer are given at so7.00o. The expenses of the schools last year was SS1.000 leaving an increase this year of approximately sl4.oo0. The treasurer's expenses last year were giren as sl3.ooo leaving an increase here also of s14.000 making soS,O0o as an increase for the schools alone.
 The difference in the estimate for the treasnrer's expenses is because of the fact that the extra money is needed to take care of the interest on High school bonds and to retire any of those bonds which come due during the year
 There is also another item of ey- pense to the town which has not been included in the list of expenses for the year. Under the law the entire property owned by the Plain vile High school must be fenced in during the coming year. There Is o,500 feet 10 be fenced in and this

CONSIDER BERLIN
 FOR AIRPORT SITE Members Of New Britain Com.
 mitt$ Inspect Land Here FIELD IN WASHINGTON
Rams of Marriage for Kensington Couple Published Selectmen Meet to Administer Electors Oath-Church News and Items,

That this town might provide the site of an airport for New Britain Was made known today when it was discovered that the aviation commit tee of New Britain had been inves- tigating suitable property for the To- cation of the field in this town. The advisability of selecting the present temporary landing field on the New Britain Machine company's property here was thoroughly discussed by the New Britain committee and several other suitable properties were visited it is said. No definite announcement concerning the probable outcome of the investigations has been made but the opinion has been expressed by several New Britain authorities that chances are good for a Berlin site for the New Britain airport.
 Local officials have notified the New Britain authorities that the town would cooperate in every way towards the acceptance of local field as the future airport and op- timistic views are being held regard ing the possibility of kensington be- ing the scene of the incoming and outgoing passenger and commercial planes of future days. Such a loca- ton would be a big step forward for the town. Berlinites claim, and the residents of this place as whole are anxious to see the acceptance of To- cal land by the aviation committee of New Britain.
 In the event the Hardware City authorities decide on a Kensington location for the field. Berlin will have the, distinction of having two muni- cipal airports within Its boundaries In the spring. Meriden acquired a szeable tract of land located in Blue for the Silver City. At that time several planes were tested out on the ground. making landings and taking off at the dedication exercises. Since then little activity has taken place at the Blue Hills landing field but it Is generally believed that the Meriden authorities will grade and improve the property when the.needs of avia- tion demand a municipal landing field for that city.
 Small Vote Seen
 With the annual town elections only little over a week distant, To- cal politicians claim that a small vote will be cast at the polls this year. Last years large vote will not be cast this year. they claim. as little interest has been shown in any of the towns activities.
 Both republican and democratic town committee heads will urge a complete turnout on election day during the coming week, but it is the general opinion that the lack of contest in any of the primaries and the meagre attendance at political meetings during the past few weeks has discouraged hopes for a large vote.

ROAD STATE AID
 ASKED BY TOWNS
t62 Apply for Their Share Of
 Allotment

Application for state aid for the construction Of town roads, under the s2,00o,o00 biennial appropria- ton enacted by the last general as scmbly, has been made by e of the states 169 towns, according to an announcement made today hy the Connecticut highway department after a compilation of the returns made to the department headquart- CTS before midnight October ] , in accordance with the provisions Of the appropriation act.
 In making application for state aid however, these towns exceeded the amount of the appropriation by a quarter Of million dollars, the total amount applied for exclusive Of the share of construction costs which must he paid by the towns themselyes, being $2,25O,o00 This will necessitate sealing down each Of the 1G2 applications proportionatcly so that the total will come within the appropriated amount.
 The seven towns which failed to take action in accordance with the appropriation act in their town meetings on or before the first Mon day in October and to notify the highway department before mid night, October l5 were Bridgeport, Chester, Marlborough, Chaplin, New Canaan, North Haven and Union. Due to failure 10 take action these towns will be unable to participate in the state aid appropriation this year.
 Action was taken by the various towns after a series of meetings con- ducted by Commissioner John A. Macdonald and Supervisor of State Aid Roads W. F. Hulse at the fol- lowing cities: New London, Torring- ton. Middletown. Hartford, Bridge port, New Haven, Rockville and Willimantic. The meetings were at tended by delegations Of selcctmen from the towns in each county.
 Commissioner Macdonald at these meetings explained the department $ new policy toward state aid which permitted the towns q choice of two methods of construction. It was made optional with the towns 10 se- lect either standard state aid con- struction, or stage construction. The stage construction method permits the towns to undertake part Of their road construction with their share Of this years appropriation and tc complete the work under future ap- propriation. This would permit q final completion of several miles oi road after period of years. instead Of the completion of short stretch of road each year. Thus a town un- der the stage construction method might choose to grade several mile: of road under the present appropria. tion and to pave it under futur' state aid. instead Of completing the construction of only part of tha mileage with this years sum.
 Engineering costs of the worl done by the towns under the stat aid appropriation. including survey ing. mapping, etc, will be paid hl the state. Provided they request it the commissioner has offered thu towns the services of MT. Hulse il an advisory capacity and has also offered cooperation in the matter 0 road building machinery.
