night. IL a characteristic. optimistic
document. dealing with a number OF
city matters and urging in definite
terms courses OF action along various
lines which the mayor believes advis.
able. Naturally, Its main interest In
the street railway question.
Beginning with resume Of the in
dustrial development of Detroit dur
Ing the past year, with the addition of
new plants employing 10000 work
men. In addition to the great additions
OF older plants, the mayor states the
need or an increase In the bonding
limit so that the rapid growth Of the
city In population may be caught up
with In paving. sewers, schools. Are
engine houses, parks and other NUM-
cipal necessities.
The city government cannot stand
still while all the private enterprises
or the city go forward" he comments.
He reviews the work OF the commit
tee OF fifty and declares his belief that
It's data IN correct and secured at very
low cost as compared with appraisais
conducted In other cities. He urges
council hearings TO work toward q
speedy termination OF the transporta-
ton problem.
"A fair valuation on the street rail-
way property, and no more; fair
return upon this valuation, and no
more" Is his platform as TO = settle
ment. He favors q settlement with
the ID. u. X. IL that company will &C.
cept fair terms for a working agree

the mayor adds that this plan may
not be necessary for an agreement
running only IA years.
He declares for the city's receiving
a percentage OF gross receipts rather
than a share in the net profits OF the
company, as In Chicago.
Considerable space Is devoted to the
matter OF convention hall.

Of twiue annually. and We hope to be
producing ct the prison from 5000, 200
to 100000 pounds in i've years, for
we are going to add at least a million

This year we will make 3.260.000
