works yesterday and wanted to know
If it was his land over which the city
wanted a right of way in order to
reach it's rock quarry. He declared If
1t was the city could have Its right
of way at once. The city's right of way
has been secured and Mr.. Jamisons
land is not involved, although the board
was we'll pleased to see such an ex-
hibition of the spirit of cooperation
Through dallying too long Vernon
has lost it's opportunity to connect
with the big Slauson sewer of Los
Angeles The board of public works
offered Vernon the right to connect
with the sewer in exchange for a right
of way through corner of the town,

the proposal, and the city engineer is
preparing plans that will make the
Vernon right of way unnecessary
