City Council 1 Fer one reason or another the tone of Monday evening's council meetint we: the best it ha been for many I long day. The line of com- munication among the council mem- bers themselves and between the council and the precinct: beyond the inner rail appear to have been Pe- stored for the time being " lent. We earnestly trust that this happy sitimtion is not . temporary one. In his report to the council Mayor Ronan announced that March lat had been set as the deadline for payment of motor vehicle taxes. Atr. tomobile owners who have not pur- chased their 1941 city license plate by that date, will be subject to ar.. rest. In stressing the necessity of a Concerted drive to collect the motor Vehicle'tax. the mayor pointed out that to ate out of a possible 4200 registrations only about 1860 have bought their 1941 license. As this tax becune due on January let, the mayor tind the council feel that am- ple time has been allowed the pub- ‘iic tereomptrtvfth this ordinance. '. The brick bat came in the form of ' warning thatany person or per- eonsrlound dumping ‘refuseeon the site of the otdUneinemtor will be subject to arrest and thte. It ap- Jyayythgt not onlyhave some- iiirdd citizens of the city been re- sorting to, this pmticehbnt they. have also been making of with some of the city’s equipment. Commissioner Sharp who was def- initely in a “get things done" mood, also stated that collection of delin- quent real estate taxes which here- tofore have been conducted on a hit or miss- basii is scheduled to start in oar-nest. He deplored the present .terdene, of legislative bodies to make up defteieneUa caused by fall- " to pay real estate taxes, simply by heaping more taxes on the backs of those who make their payments In ul‘arly. Commissioner Sharp “med that the new regime in Wan- lesan has promised its cooperation in any effort sponsored by local thr-h1ind Park groups to alleviate thr situation.

Commissioner Swanson reported that the Women's Garden club had sponsored a meeting " which vari- ous groups went on record as fav- oring a resolution to collect $2500 for landscaping and otherwise im- proving the Central Street railroad station property. If this sum could not be collected within the organiz- ations themselves it was suggested that the council authorize a tag day, or something similar to it, to raise the necessary funds. Acceptance of plans for the improvement which have already reached the blueprint stage is being held in abeyance dn- til the funds are definitely raised. Commissioner Bowes moved that the council go on record as approving the eftortr of the, various groups in bringing about this improvement.
