Refuse Problem Dominates Chamber Dinner Discussion
Chamber of Commerce members at their annual dinner debated refuse disposal methods. Guest speaker Donald Cummings of Metcalf and Eddy reviewed 1961 style incinerators, noting 3 workers suffice per plant, and showcased a White Plains center site as smoke free. He cited Marblehead Massachusetts with a similar setup costing about 201000, plus engineering costs. Cummings claimed 100 percent efficiency and dramatic reductions in pestilence versus open dumps. Town Solicitor Frank L Martin asked about Federal Aid via Bristol and possible engineering studies, with loans for planning but not construction and grants contingent on town commitment within five years. The discussion touched on site proximity to housing and potential government support.
