Gen Callan in the Senate denounces new use of town funds for aid to nonworking residents. He cites the Emergency Relief Act of 1933 and cites state and federal money totals, urging Bristol taxpayers not to fund “town dependents.” He notes available funds exceed projected needs and mentions potential highway and sidewalk jobs using relief funds.
