PLAN 10 PUSH
IMPROVEMENTS
LOCAL BOARD or COUNCIL HOPES
TO SOON GET PAVING AND
FILLING UNDER WAY.
TO ASK FOR NEW BIDS
City Officials in Communication with
Contractors Who Viii Be Able
TO Finance Bonds--Ordered
Sewer Payments.

In spite of the present money panic
and the general campaign Of re
trenchment along all lines the mem
beers OF the Board of Local Improve
nients, at meeting yesterday after
noon decided TO make every effort to
push the mrch talked OF and long pro-
posed city improvements. 1t was de-
cided to re-advertise at an early date
for bids for the paving OF Washington
avenue and the Hiiing and sewering
of the cross streets from Twenty-iirst
street north, west of of Washington
avenue
A very optimistic feeling prevailed
as a result of a letter read by Alder
man Koehler from certain large
contractor who stated that he ex-
expected to be able to finance the
Washington avenue bonds himself
Other aldermen. it is understood. are
lin communication with contractors
along the same line.
AS soon as certain matters are ar
ranged the bids will be advertised for
and the general feeling seems TO be
that the contracts could be let and
actual work commenced early next
spring.
Several months ago all bids offered
fer the paving of Washington avenue
were withdrawn by the contractors
because of their inability to finance
the bonds. 1t was then feared that
1t might be necessary for the city to
make arrangements to place the
bends below par as result of the
money stringencv or else defer all i'm
provements until money matters re-
laved to such an extent that they
would be accepted at face value
drawing olny five per cent interest.
AS a result. however, of the ener-
getic action on the part Of Mayor
Parsons and other members of the
improvement board, 1t is now thought
that 1t will be possible to interest con
tractors who will accept the bonds at
| par. If they succeed in this it will
be possible for the work to he done
within the estimated cost.
| Reports read at the meeting yester-
day showed that the work on the big
sewer was progressing satisfactorily.
The board members received an esti-
mate of the amount of work done last
month and ordered the issuance of
bonds to pay for the same, amounting
