Quigley Again Talks on Stream
Pollution Before Club

Sewer pollution in streams OF Con-
necticut is running the beauty OF the
landscape, according to former
Mayor George A. Quigley. who spoke
today at the meeting of the Kiwanis
club on the proposed two million
dollar sewer bond issue.
Mr.. Quigley reiterated his state
ments that an expenditure to extend
the local sewer beds under their
present status would be waste of
money unless some way can be found
to eliminate trade waste from the
sewage.
He said only 20 per cent of the
actual waste Is being taken out Of
New Britain's sewage under the pres
ont system. He claims that reclama-
ton after the trade waste had been
eliminated would produce CONNER
cial fertilizer of value sufficient to
pay the cost of operating the plant.
Referring to the question of his
speaking before the common coun-
ell and the threatened opposition on
the part of members of the coun-
Gil. the former mayor said ut is a
matter Of Indifference to me, wheth-
er the council will permit me to
speak or not As long as can come
before the civic clubs and in that
way get this matter before the public
J am satisfied"
Bonds Still Out
Hesaid the New Britain sewer beds
We're built on req clay at a cost of
over a million dollars and the bonds
are not vet paid for.
He explained that one factory
started retaining certain elements
of trade waste. for which there was
A fairly good market. For material
salvaged this way the factory got six
cents a pound. he said. When the
market dropped to one cent a pound
and it cost three cents TO get it, the
proposition was dropped and left to
tn city to take care Of, he added.
He said the city should help the
factories build reclamation plants so
as to keep trade waste out Of the
streams.

ment in Beckley quarter he said.
Representatives f. W. Pape spoke
for few minutes on the same sub
iect He said Senator Walcott is
chairman Of state committee on
this proposition and that the COM
mittee is working towards the elm
nation of stream pollution.
Councilman Samuel Sablotsky who
was present as guest, commented
as follows, when introduced to the
club: George wanted to speak to
the council but one of the members
said he couldn't talk and that was
all there was to it,
Entertainment was furnished by
bill johnson.
IT was announced that Rev. NJ. J.
O'Hearn, a Jesuit priest, who spoke

To Decide Legality of
Sunday Choir Concert

Audubon, Aug. 10 UP) - The
question of whether a program by a
church choir is violation OF the city
ordinance against Sunday entertain
ments, soon is to be decided in court.
Edward B. johnson, theater pro-
prietor, filed charges against a Chau-
tauqua for violating the Sunday ordi-
nance after they had presented the
choir in concert.
Johnson maintains the operation
of his theater on Sunday is no more
violation of the Sunday ordinance
than is the song fest of the choir.

An Old Stoy-amd
q NeW One

The cost Of living about IS per cent higher than it
before the World War; That's an old story. 81
Rates for telephone service in Connecticut have
increased the average only about 20 per cent during
the same period and the story of this accomplish
ment has never been told
Il In 1914 the dollar was worth 100 cents To-day this
dollar has the purchasing power of only 81 cents
in the marketpace of general commodities but it will
buy "a cents worth of telep phone service.
As the costs of labor materials and equipment have
mounted during the past decade and MORE they have
been met by advances in the telep hone art by the
introduction of more efficient methods and practices,
and by the development of further resources Of income
through improved and expanded service. There have
been lean years. times when it was doubtful whether the
income statement would show the necessary margin Of
safety at the close of the year. But through ALL this
business has been maintained on sound financial basis
at comparatively slight increased cost for its service to
hepubGc.
We believe that this accomplishment clearly reveals
the purpose and fairness Of policy in the matter of
rates. We never have sought and we do not now seek
rates higher than required to furnish adequate service
and provide return upon the property which will main
tain the business in sound financial condition.
