RETALIATION IDEA IS ADOPTED HERE Appraisal Companys Services
 to Be Engaged USE OF AERIAL MAP, TOO Taxpayers Crowd Meeting to Ex. press Their vtcws-Work of As- sessors Described as "Haphaxarl'' -One Calls 1t Unfair.
USE OF AERIAL MAP, TOO

Revaluation of all taxable prop. erty in Plainville with the assistance of an outside appraisal company and the use of aerial maps was voted by l56-1s4 at an unusually we'll attend. ed town meeting in the High school auditorium last night as the com. mittee Investigating the matter brought State Tax Commissioner William H. Blodgett to Plainville and virtually turned the meeting over to this expert on taxation. An appropriation of $1l,500 for the work was voted and the contract was awarded to the Manufacturers Appraisal Co. of Philadelphia. the lowest of three competing bidders.
 400 Attend Meeting
 Fully 400 taxpayers were In the auditorium when Stanley S. Gwillinl called the meeting. which had been adjourned from three weeks before to order. Henry s. Washburn, chair. man of the committee of seven ap, pointed at that time to carry on the investigation. made his report. He stated that his committee was satis- fled that aerial maps were the cheapest method available of check ing up property and explained the card system which it is proposed to introduce. Inventories of factories and stores must be made by ex- perts." he said. "Revaluaton does not necessarily mean high assess ments, and higher assessment may mean a lower tax rate and actually smaller taxes" Property hitherto unlisted would probably be found, he stated.
 Blodgett Introduced
 He then sprang surprise coup and introduced Tax Commissioner Rlodgett, who gave a good-natured but very able talk on Connecticut tax problems in general and the Plainville situation in particular. How are we to allocate to each property owner his fair share of the tax?" he asked. How can we know if all the figures are in the minds of the assessors and not on cards?" He referred to the system now used here as the guess and be damned system"
 Tribute to Governor
 we have not had a governor in 50 years with a clearer vision in keeping towns out of debts than your own fellow citizen. John H Trumbull," Mr. Blodgett said amid applause. He urged that the town should adopt the pay-as-you-go pol icy which Governor Trumbull has emphasized in state financing.
 The old assessing system of 1851 is antiquated now because of in- crcasing complexity of property, laws, and legal decisions, he went on. In fact. he stated, the practice of having the assessors themselves fill out the lists is illegal and punish able. There is big row if the se-

It is the most unfair thing l have been connected with in my eight years on the board. l Was not asked to helI in fixing the values" Although he had voted against revaluation. he pledged himself 10 help carry out the wishes Of the ma jorlty. MT. Gwillim assumed command once more and drew the wandering meeting back to the motion before it. The resolution tavoring the Philadelphia concern went through with only about 10 dissenting. MT. Washburn moved that a sum not exceeding S12.500 be appropriat- ed revaluation and for tireproot expense to be added to the 1928 budget. Unanimous assent was given the opposition giving up in the face of the increasing majorities for the committees program. A final resolution was carried unanimously providing that the se- lectmen and assessors be authorized to appoint a Plainville citizen to work with the appraisers and re- ceive instruction from them so as to be able to use the system intelli- gently after it had been installed. The town is not to pay this person until after October l. the appraisers, reimbursing him or her for the time spent on the job before then.
 T honestly believe Plainville has taken a great step forward" said Mr. Washourn. A resolution of Charles R. sherman. tabled at the previous meeting and duplicated by one of Mir. Washhurn's. was taken from the table at the instigation of Attorney Cornelius Prior and was Carthy, a rising vote of thanks was accorded the committee of seven. and then adjournment was made.

Growing With Children Is

panionate marriage and de layed marriage are apt to cheat a women of her biggest happiness that of having her children and growing up with them." says Mrs. Teddy Zitenfeld, mother of the famous Zitenfeld twins who hold the long distance record on the Hud- son and expect to swim the English Channel.
 "L have spent most of my time with my children since they were born and ] know of no one who en- joys life as I do. We swim together, dance. ride horseback, play golf and tennis together.
 "For a period lived in the coun- try just so they could spend all their time outdoors. I consider no incon- vcnicncc too great for the pleasure I derive from seeing my girls happy and healthy.
 'Jf women are especially gifted as musicians or artists and want to de. vote their lives to their careers, all right. But it seems to me if women marry. they should assume home responsibilities seriously and keep Eouse and bring Up their children personally.

Keeping Away
 Dread Disease
U. s. Health Service Dis
 cusses Tuberculosis.

Washington. May 12 R'-Al- though the death rate has been greatly diminished in recent years, tuberculosis still is widespread and of tremendous public welfare and economic significance.
 Tuberculosis is primarily dis ease of youth, the present opinion of physicians being that most pco- pie contract it in childhood. The in lection may remain dormant for several years. becoming active at a time when the body yigor Is at low cbb.
 Parents who take the viewpoint that it is not necessary to keep their children from exposure to measles or whooping cough, upon the theory that they are certain to cantracf them eventually, are courting the danger of later development Of tu- berculosis and other serious mala- dies.
 Now, during the outdoor season is the time to build chldrcn's healt | against the attacks Of disease In the years to come. They should be pro tected as long as possible from measles. scarlet fever and whoopinn cough. They should have 10 hour' sleep every night. Parents should insist upon their eating sufficient, of plain, wholesome food. and pro vide an outdoor playground. Physj- clans advocate plenty of exercise but caution against fatigue.
 Statistics show that tho persons most frequently affected are be- tween the ages of 20 and 3o not only incapacitating the worker in his most productive period but de- priving society of his services at that period.
 Desk workers arc advised 10 take outdoor exercise Of some kind these spring days. They should stand straight, cultivate a proper carriage of the body and practice deep breathing several times every day
