'FLEECING' is
CHARGE FLUNG
AT WATER co,
Property Owners Declare
Charges for Connections
Much Too Hiqh.'

Charges for water connections
made during construction paving
projects were protested again today
by East New York street property
owners who appeared before the
works board
The ten property owners, who
said they represented all owners
along the newly resurfaced and
widened street from Colorado street
to Emerson avenue, charged that
sl5 for moving water box a few
feet is much too high.
Their demands for relief from
such extra charges" were similar
TO those issued by Emerson avenue
property owners few days ago.
Owners on both New York street
and Emerson avenue argue that the
81 foot, paid the contractor for
water connections, is exorbitant.
Works board members informed
both groups that property owners
have the right to hire a private
plumber to do the work, providing it
is done before the contractor starts
the improvement project"
Special notices to the effect now
are being mailed to all owners of
property where connections or wa
ter-box changes appear necessary.
New York street representatives
contend that the expense of water
connections ought to be borne by
the water company.
"Other utilities do not impose
high charges for bringing their
products to our DOORS" they told the
board, referring to the gas and cleo
trio companies. A charge of about
SIS is made by the gas company for
connecting homes with the gas
main, it was pointed out.

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Fenton An
nOunce Birth of Daughter.
Pessismism which has pervaded
Republican state headquarters for
some time lifted bit today with
the announcement that one sure
new vote has been pledged the
party.
Of course the vote will not be cast
for twenty-one years, but it's a sure
one for the G. o. P, protests Harry
Fenton, state committee secretary.
The new partisan, to be known on
the poll books as Martha Lou Fen
ton, arrived at 11:30 Wednesday
night.
Latest reports from the Methodist
hospital precinct say mother and
new voter are doing well.
