NO ACTION IS TAKEN ON
FERRY FARM PURCHASE PLAN
Fairgrounds In congested Dis
tricts Are More Needed.

The council chamber was we'll fill
ed, Wednesday afternoon, at the pub
lie hearing called by the council com
mittee fon~olaims and accounts to con
slider the estimate OF $4,000 sub
mitted for the purchase of the Ferry
farm Of 40 acres at Grand River-ave
and the boulevard, a site for a new
high school and athletic grounds. A
large delegation of women was pres.
ent, and the associations of the north.
western part of the city were strong
ly represented. The sentiment was
Overwhelmingly in favor of the pur-
chase Of the property.
Estimator Eddie Barnett, who will
be president of the board of estimates
this year, was the first to oppose the
plan. He declared that the crying
need just now was for Fairgrounds In
the more congested parts of the city
and that these we're more essential
than additional high school facilities.
He called attention to the unusually
large budget this year and the narrow
margin left in the city's bonding limit.
Supt. of Schools Martindale declared
that the greatest need was for schools
and that, even with the Cass high
school, when II is finally completed,
the facilities will not be sufficient in
two or three years to care for all the
applicants. II was foolish, he said, Tor
the city to buy an empty field without
also providing money for school.
Among those who spoke in favor
of the purchase of the Ferry farm
were Police Justice Jeffries, Assistant
Prosecutor Jasnowski, the Rev. w. A.
Atkinson. Arthur j. Lacy and r. L.
Post. Mr.. Lacy represented nine as
sociations, with a combined member
ship of 5000. Mr.. Post made the point
that these associations are doing for
the future Detroit what our forefa-
theirs did not have the foresight to do
for the present generation.
The committee took the matter un-
der advisement.

Juices OF the stomach. The stomach.

LANGLEY & JAMES BID LOWEST.
Will Probably Get Contract For
Fairview Sewer Outlet.

The council committee on sewers,
will recommend the acceptance of the
bid Of Langley & Jaynes, to build the
outlet and inlet of the Fairview sewer
pumping station for $4,000. The city
engineer had estimated the job at
SIT 900, but because OF the uncertain
ty of the soil, contractors would not
touch IL at that figure. As the APP
preparation for the various sections
of the sewer and the pumping station
are Jumped in the estimates, 1t Is pos
sible to overrun In individual items.
The committee deferred action for
one week on the petition Of James
Hanley to be relieved of HIS contract
for the first section Of the sewer, a
stretch OF about 100 feet. Hanley
has completed about half the con.
tract, but declares he has found II i'm
possible to do the job without ruinous
loss, because of alleged miscalcuia-
tons by those employed to make the

that the Insurrecto chiefs do not ex-
