Optimistic prospects for 1928 are

the basic conditions underlying the
prosperity Of the last few years are
still operative. The only important
change is the higher level Of money

INSTITUTE NEEDS
MONEY FOR BOOKS
Bldga d M,lN Explained to
Band d Klllcs ],

Education forces appeared last
night before the board of finance in
support OF the New Britain Insti-
tute, the only library in the city.
Among those who attended the hear
ing on the financial requests Of the
institute were Henry T. Burr OF the
library committee. Principal Marcus
White of the State Normal school,
two school principals and an officer
of the United Parent Teachers as
ISOLATION.
The supporters of the library's re-
quest explained that although there
was an increase Of 100000 books in
circulation during the past three
years, the institute has received no
additional financial aid. An increase
of SS.445 or a total of $54,470 is be-
ing sought.
The only means by which the Ii
brary increases the money 1t receiv-
ed is the failure of New Britain citi-
zens to return books on time. The
slight fines levied for this procrasti-
nation amounts to about $1,000 a
year. There are about $4,000 books
in the library, Principal White esti-
mated.
The annual circulation at the H.
hrary Is about $4,000 books. &C.
cording to the speakers. The frequent
usa of the books wears them out
faster than they can be bought
with the money allowed by the city.
Failure to have the latest books and
replacement OF old ones, Injuries the
educational facilities for the children
of the city.
The speakers asked $4,000 in
stead Of $4,000 for new books and
increases in the salaries of those en-
ployed at the library.
Public Welfare Department
Superintendent John L. Doyle of
the Public Welfare department made
a modest request for an institutional
washing machine and a tractor. He
said that about 30 patients are in the
city institution and because the farm
there grows about 1900 bushels of
potatoes there. the tractor is badly
needed. His department wants $685.
~ instead of se1.3s2 received in
1888.
The heads OF the water depart
ment were quizzed by members of
the finance board. Chairman James
