Mayor Perriello Will
Demand Street Paving
Conn. Railway & Lighting Co. Has Not Repaired Some
Streets-Corp. Counsel Sullivan Is Called
on For Ruling

Mayor Patrick M. Perriello de-
clared today that he would demand
that the Connecticut Railway and
Lighting Company complete the
work Of paving over its abandoned
trolley tracks, claiming that the
statutes and O ruling Of the Public
Utilities Commission require that 1t
be done. The mayor called on Corp
grafton Counsel Timothy s. Sulli-
van for a formal ruling before pro-
ceeding.
A published report this morning
quoting q spokesman Of the utilities
commission as stating that the city
could not force the company to
pave over unused tracks. was not ac-
curate, the mayor said. He said that
both the statutes and the commits
sion's own rulings obliged traction
companies to do such paving on de-
mand.
Work Was Halted
The G. r. & l.. Lines, after several
conferences between its officials and
the mayor, recently paved over I'M
used tracks on North Main street
Similar work was started on Bank
street and West Main street, then
halted, presumably because Of the
companys belief that such work was
not obligatory.
Corporation Counsel Sullivan be-
gan an immediate study of the
statutes and the commissions ruiz
ings, preparatory to drafting an
opinion for the mayor.
The story which quoted the COM
mission spokesman was In error, the
mayor pointed out, In stating that
the city street department is now
covering with asphalt iall trolley
raEs In the various streets Of the
CITY," The street department die
none Of the work whatever, the
mayor said, the paving being done
by a construction firm hired by the
G. r. & L. Lines.
The mayor Is prepared to go to
court If necessary to force the COM
pany to- complete the work. He had
agreed to plan whereby only part
of the work would be done this year
but now may insist that all trolley
rails anywhere in the city be paved
over.

CONSIDERABLY enrich the Guy treas.
ury.
The start Of the long-awaited
drive was made possible by the COM
pletion Of @ voluminouS card index
system in the tax collectors office.
The early phase Of the campaign
for back taxes will be concentrated
on past due taxes, on personal prop
erty. The campaign, will then go
on to the collection Of overdue real
estate taxes, personal taxes, and old
age assistance taxes.
Taxpayers Notified
Notices have been mailed to hum
dreds Of taxpayers directing them to
pay within five days unpaid taxes
or personal property which were
levied between 1917 and 1928. Those
falling to heed the notices by making
fun payment or making q satisfac-
tory arrangement with the tax coll
lector for payment will have war
rants served on them.
Under the law, the warrant Is In
effect o body writ and the delin-
quent taxpayer can be taken to New
Haven county jail at once, without
benefit Of being booked at police
headquarters or being presented IN
city court.
Back taxes due the city on real
and personal property as Of March
81, amounted to about $1,475 900.
The total now listed as due Is 81,
274,700.75.
Still Owed 100000
In addition, the city is still owed
about 100000 on the old personal
tax, which superseded In 1885 by the
old age assistance tax. About $780,
900 Is due the city In old age assist
ance taxes.
Those who have warrants served
on them must not only pay the back
taxes and interest, or 60 to jail, but
must also pay the sheriffs' fees. City
Sheriff Nardona estimated today
that the services Of about half q
dozen county sheriffs will be neces-
sary. Police may be used to serve
the warrants later In the collection
campaign.
Tax warrants against former Wa
terburians now living out Of town
or against out-of-towners owning
personal property here will be
served by Sheriff Nardona himself,
as required by law.
Drive Long Advocated
The tax collection drive has long
been advocated by the board Of fl
nance. Commissioners John H. Goss
and Major w. Judge some months
ago led a move to have the entire
tax records re-indexed so that the
collection campaign could be carried
on. The completion Of the re-index-

(United Press STAN COfreSpOnuent)
New York, Nov. q - (U.P) -
General Sessions Judge James q
Wallace denied series Of mistrial
motions in the Fritz Kuhn grand
larceny trial today and indicated he
probably would submit to the jury
Ave counts on which the German.
American Bund leader, II convicted,
could be sentenced to O maximum 0f
20 years in prison.
In q stormy session preceding
sunmations, the Judge, In the jurys
absence, accused Defense Counsel
Peter L. F. Sabbatino Of trying To
goad the court into action to bring
about a mistrial"
"At the proper time" he told
Sabbatino, II will deal with you on
that score"
Murray Fee May Convict
Wallace last week had dismissed
five Of the indictments 10 counts
which, on conviction, would have
made the total maximum sentence
81 Ia years. At the conclusion OF
today's arguments Kuhn stood
charged with the theft OF q $500 le-
gal fee raised by the Bund for At
torney James D. @. Murray and OF
$7l7.02 in Bund money used to pay
moving costs for his one-time gold
en- angel, Mrs. Florence Camp.
Wallace rejected sabbatino's argu-
ment that Kuhn's love letters to Mrs
Camp were prejudicial and said the
attorney gave "too much weight To
trifies."
Were not going to convict this
man because he wrote love letters
or because the letters were silly" the
Judge said. Were not going to re-
gard Mrs. Camp as tiInid virgin.
I'm sure the Jurors consider the In
cident trivial"
The defense had reopened the
case before arguments to present
additional testimony designed to
show that the Bund attached no
strings to Kuhn's use of its legal
defense fund and that he had paid
attorneys fees In instances similar
to the Murray case.
