ART COMMISSION PLANS
TO CONTINUE FIGHT,

The Montclair Municipal Art Com
mission has decided that the recent
special election should be accepted as
a decision of the people adverse to the
town plan act" in the form proposed
and that the efforts of the commission
in the immediate future will be di-
rected to ascertain the real and valid
objections of the people to the act as
proposed and framing such amend
ments as shall satisfy these objec-
lions.
The commission will apply to the next
Legislature to amend the act by pro-
viding a referendum on any bond issue.
This will remove. it is believed, one of
the principal objections to the act.
The commission has appointed a COM
mittee to prepare a plan for enlarging
the membership of the body OF a more
representative basis.
