 As a result of action taken last evening at meeting Of the char ter revision committee of New Britain, Mayor George A. Quigley of that city will request that the voters of Plainville hold a special town meeting to appoint a commit tee who will confer with the New Britain officials on the proposed an- nexation of a portion of this town to the Hardware City. First Select man James Simpson stated today that he had not yet received word from Mayor Quigley but he would call special town meeting if ask ed to do so and would place the annexation project before the pub- lie.
 New Britain is seeking to annex portions of Plainville, Southington, Newington and Berlin. Mayor Quig- ley will seek to have the special town meetings held as soon as pos- sible by conferring immediately with the selectmen. If the select. men are unwilling to call the meetings, he will seek to have the meetings called by the voters them- selves. People desiring to learn more of this annexation project will find special article on the matter contained in another section Of this issue.
 Change in Relief Plan All persons who have odd jobs for either men or women .re sked to call the first selectmans office at telephone 90 instead of the unem. ployment relief bureau as requested q yesterday. This change was thought advisa ble because First Selectman James Simpson is we'll posted on the unemployment matter and knows what men are Tn need of work and where to reach them.
