Commission members rejected an eleventh hour request from a member of the family that once owned the land to return it to him for expenses the city incurred in foreclosing the property a number Of years ago E. F. Wiegand wrote the city was "morally" bound to sell the property to him as he cited a number of unsuccessful attempts to regain the property. He submitted a bid of $3,141.59 which he said covered the city's cost in taking over the land for non payment of taxes.

Other substantial bids received for the realty included $11,400 by Lawrence Johnson; $10,700 by Francis St. Lawrence; $10,200 by Dr. and Mrs. Walter Blogoslaw- ski and $7,663, bv Arthur Gauer, developing property near by.

Service Stations, Inc. said it wanted to put up a building to house retail stores. The matter was presented at last month's meeting but was tabled until Monday so that new notices could be issued to opposing neighbors. A motion to deny the request was made by Commissioner Sa- uel D. Salowitz.

When no other member came forth ivith a second, Atty. Antirony J. Monteros- so moved to grant the request. It was seconded by Nathaniel S. Howe.

When it came to a vote, Mon-terosso, Howe and Chairman Har-ld J. Eisenberg voted in favor of granting the request. Salowitz and Mrs. Raymond Lawson, attending her first meeting, voted to deny. Another new member, Laurence Cloutier, abstained from voting, claiming he was unfamiliar with the matter.

Since the affirmative votes of at least five of the seven board members are needed to grant an exception, this meant rejection. Eight property owners in the vicinity appeared in opposition. Beauty Parlor Approved The board, by a vote of 5 to 1, granted the request of Mrs. Fred (Mary) Ashworth of 51 Prospect St. to operate a beauty parlor in her home.

The dissenting vote was cast by Atty. Eisenberg, who said he was against "businesses in houses." However, the board stipulated that the business is to be conducted by Mrs. Ashworth herself and -is not to be leased out to others. The petition of Mrs. Warren R.

(Ergie) Gates of 568 Stanley St. to operate a beauty parlor in the basement of her home was ta bled for a month upon her own request. Trumble Associates, Inc. was granted a special exception for permission to maintain a wire fence around an automobile parking and display and sales lot at the rear of South Main and Whiting' streets. Atty.

Carlos A. Richardson appeared for the Trumble group. Clinton Richardson was granted a special exception to build a house, costing approximately at 100 Christian Lane. However, the board agreed that no permit is to be issued by the building inspector until the prop er deeds are recorded in the town clerk's office. Building Permits The Tanager Construction Co.

He is the third chief to serve the local department since its organization 40 years ago. The first chief was the late Andrew Granniss, one 2 Hearing Dates Set On Charter Sessions on Changes Slated Dec 18, 19 In Council Chambers NEW BRITAIN, Dec. 8 rSpe- ciaI)Because the Charter Revision Committee faced a "tre mendous amount" of material to be handled before the end of next month, Atty. John L. Eric- son, chairman, suggested Mon day night that it set two dates for public hearings on the measure.

Members agreed to hold the hearings on Thursday and Friday, Dec. 18 and 19. in the Common Council chambers. Mayor Ldward B. Scott said it may also be necessary to call a special meeung of the- Common Coun cil to consider xharter revisions alone.

This session would be held after the committee meets in executive session Jan. 3 to recommend or project the changes. The committee took no action on matters presented Monday. One of a number of new proposals brought up Monday would affect the committee itself by establishing it on a permanent basis. Atty.

Samuel S. Googel, state representative-elect, said a committee functioning during the two years prior to regular General Assembly sessions would be able to give proposals more attention. Present committees, "can't do a good job." he said, because they meet only two or three months before the General Assembly meets, and must race against time to introduce bills before the deadline. There is at present no provi sion in the charter for the committee, which is appointed by the mayor on authorization of the Common Council. It serves as an advisory committee for the Common Council, but bills can be introduced intothe General Assembly without going through either of these bodies.

Some of the major changes be introduced into the General Fnina.rc oadBga est mr mf which received them, from the city's auditors. Mayor Edward B. Scott said they would centralize' fiscal controls of the city. A finance offi cer to be appointed under the proposals would function as the "executive arm" of the Finance Board, the mayor said. Most of this work is now done by William H.

Judd. chairman of the board. Aid. Robert H. Hausman said the proposals would result in manv changes to the charter and he called them, "far too complex to asK tne committee to vote on them in one State Sen.

Paul Amenta pro posed that local bidders be given preierence over out-of-town competitors by establishing a sliding percentage scale under which New Britain concerns would be allowed to bid higher, but still be considered as submitting the lowest bid. This would range from five per cert on bids up $1,000, down to half of one per cent for those over $100,000. Mayor Scott said a plan to establish centralized city purchasing would have to be considered in connection with this proposal. Aid. Hausman declared city pur chasing agents agreed most unanimously that the low bid is no.t necessarily the best, all matters considered.

Galfnev Asks Changes Acting for the Municipal Joint Council of City Employe Unions. Atty. Leo V. Gaffney proposed several chances in the Mpppppop One would allow persons in a de partment in wheih a vacancy oc curs to have first opportunity to take tests for the post. If neces sary, thereafter, the test would he open, to all city employes and, finally, to the general public.

Another qhange provide that tests could be taken by one person if he was the only one to qualify. Sen. Amenta asked that sme arrangements be made to provide pensions for city employes not included under present pension plans. He said about 54 employes are affected. After some discussion it was agreed that this matter might be handled by the permanent committee and that, in the meantime, legislators would introduce invididual pension bills in the past.

The state senator also proposed that widows of city employes might be included in a pension system but other com mittee members said that is also a matter for future. study. Would Bar Rentals Alderman George E. Parker in troduced a proposal to have the city operate all of is heavy ntupmen, instead of renting it. He also asked for a charter change placing the present elective posts of city clerk and tax collectr under Civil Service.

The Plice Board asked that it be exempted from using the Mu nicipal Garage for service to its vehicles. The board proposed that the police department take over this work. Another measure introduced would raise the pay of aldermen from $500 to $750 yearly to conform to the scale for chairmen of major boards and commissions, the Board of Health asked changes altering the title of the department head from health officer to director of health and cnahRing inspectors to sanitari ans."

Xow Rrilain Pension Flaw Is Claimed By Attorney Asks Repeal of Act To Put 15 Men on Fire, Police Systems NEW BRITAIN, Dec. 8 (Spc cial) -A question as to the pension status of 15 firemen and policemen who have been made regulars since July .1, 1953, was raised before the Charter Revision Committee Monday night by Atty. John M.

Scanlon, representing some of the affected men. He wrote that the situation represents a "complicated problem" because a special act seemingly putting those employes under the Municipal Employes Retirement Fund provided that the long standing police and fire pensions funds should be amended to exclude the new men. This amendment was not made, according to Atty. Scanlon. He asked for the repeal of the whole special act to put the 15 in the regular police and fire pension systems.

Atty. Scanlon wrote that the special act, which put new police men and firemen under the same pension plan as other city employes in the service, was adopted following a referen dum in 1953. It was approved by a 779 to 770 vote, he said. Since that time, according to the 11 regular firemen and four policemen have been appointed. Atty.

John L. Ericson, chairman of the Revision Committee, said he will look into the matter and will refer it to the State Attorney General for an opinion if that step seems necessary. on Lions To Hold Annual Sale Of Electric Lights SOUTHINGTON, Dec. 6 Spe cial) The Lions Club will conduct hs second annual electric light bulb sale on Tuesday.
