heads to install parking meters in
the city. When the subcommittee
directed that the Commissioner
draft such q bill, 1t was believed
that installation Of these machines
would net the city government ad-
ditional revenue which could be
used as q cushion fund" in case
other taxes were not as productive
as they were expected to be.
Doubt Revenue
However, the Commissioners
told the subcommittee today that
they doubted if, during the first
year Of operation Of the meters,
they would produce any substan-
tial revenue. They pointed out
that in many places where the
meters might be used to produce
revenue, such as around the
Ellipse, the cit government has
no jurisdiction and therefore could
not install the meters there.
In discussing the business priv
lege tax proposal, which provides
for $40 annual license fee for
anyone in business plus q tax OF
three-fifth Of one per cent on gross
receipts, members of the subcomit-
tee were divided as to whether al
lowance should be made for the in
tangible taxes paid by persons in
business. .. ..
Nichols Objections
Representative Jack Nichols CD
of Okla, commended that the law
should be written so as to permit
persons subject to the business pr.
vilege tax to claim a credit for the
amount of intangible taxes they
pair, while Representative Everett
Dirksen r. Of Ill, argued, that no
such allowance should be made.
The Commissioners explained
that it makes no difference to
them which is done, but that If the
allowance is permitted the income
take rates should be increased.

Delay Cutting

Due to the fact that maps and other data is not yet ready for study, the aldermanic committee considering the task of splitting up several of the city voting dis tricts has postponed its contem- plated session indefinitely. Alder man George R. Guilfoile, chair man of the committee, says he does not know when the desired data will be ready but that as soon as it is he will call the group together.
 The republican members of the board are urging the splitting up of the 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 11th and 14th voting districts. They also contend that the committee should go even further and split up the 4th and 18th districts.

MYTHICAL CASE
 CLEvERLY GIVEN
Believe It or Not, ll=WOm= an-Jury Hears $l,OOO
 Trial Here

Posterity, if it is interested. will know that on the 18th day of April, 1887, an 11-woman jury, in the su- perior court at Waterbury, heard the imaginary $1,O0o civil negligence action of Mary Roe against Jane Doe, and returned a verdict for the defendant. The trial yesterday was an educational feature sponsored by the Waterbury League of Women Voters, and parts in the proceedings were played by its members.
 Judge Frank P. McEvoy, who pre- sided at the action yesterday, has ordered that all testimony be com- piled in transcript form, and filed away in the archives of the superior court, along with similar transcripts of actual cases.
 Although it was all make believe and mythical, insofar as the case was concerned, it was the first all- woman jury to hear an action ill a Connecticut superior court room, with a real judge presiding, and with sheriffs, clerk, stenographer present just as they would be for bona -fide action at law. Women are confident that within 8 short time they will be serving on juries in actual trails. Only Governor Cross signature on the bill, recently passed by the general assembly, is delaying their right to serve on juries.
 More than usual interest was shown by the huge crowd that packed the courthouse to witness the trial yesterday. Included were members of the Waterbury, Nauga- tuck and Watertown leagues of Women Voters, students of St. Mar garet's and Westover schools, and members of the Waterbury Bar as- socia ton.
