Opposition to Display
While there Is considerable senti-
ment in favor OF the town display
project Of the chamber Of COM
merce, there are also many who arc
opposed to the plan. One OF those
against the plan said today that the
proposed display would make
Plainville the laughing stock of
Connecticut. We have nothing spe-
cial here to advertise as 4 benefit
and there are better towns in Con-
necticut than Plainville. 1t would
he Joke to put up such a sign
with dump only short distance
away. What We ought to do is get
some companies here to fill up the
vacant factories"
