In his annual address to Borough
Council last night, Mayor Charles
Brown. OF Linwood, recommended
that plans be considered for new
borough hall, and passage OF ordi-
nances which would make possible
the collection Of a mercantile tax,
and fees from a building code.
He complimented James Parish,
Borough Clerk. who started his
thirt!, eighth year in that Office last
night declaring him TO have set a
record for consecutive service that
could not be equalled in the county
il in the state.
Il certainly think that the Bor-
ough Of Linwood has been repre-
sented by a group of upright, Ell
cient men. The men elected last
term have performed their duties
we'll. We are in line now for new
additions, and we should go ahead
and progress more than last year.
Everyone feels the need OF a
borough hall. We have men here
who can give us such a hall. The
growth of the Borough merits that
its rulers and public officials should
have some place where they can
hold their meetings.

The need of city hall was point

for 1927 would doubtless be larger

hall, where municipal business can
be concentrated and records safely

liminary arrangements for the con-
struction of such a building will
take considerable time, and even
though we may not be in finan-
cial position to begin its erection
at once, most earnestly recon-
mend that immediate steps be TAX

to your honorable body, | wish,
first, to congratulate you upon the
progress and improvements that
have been made in Absecon during
the past year. Land has been de-
veloped. Many new houses built,
and our population greatly increas-
ed. Extension Of improved side
walks By the City and property
owners and Improvement of streets
by the State, County and City have
been of great benefit, adding to the
value of property in general and
making Absecon as one of the pro
gressive municipalities of the coun-
ty.
This general improvement and
increase Of population, however
will add to the cost of conducting
the city business and the budget
for 1927 will doubtless show a con
siderable increase over that for
1926. l am informed also that the
amount required for State and
County taxes will be considerably
larger because of the increased
cost of improving and maintaining
roads, institutions and the various
