COLONEL SLOWER OPPOSED
CITY SOLICITORS VIEW

A resolution, which was suggested
by City Solicitor Hastings and was
adopted by City Council last evening,

been prepared for the use Of the VIII

new joint city and county building.
Councilman Stover chairman OF the
finance committee, said that he did not
agree with the city solicitor that the
law directs that the bonds be execut-
ed as soon as provided for. He beliey.
ed the lav' on this point was conflict
ing. and he pointed out that while one
clause stated they should be executed
Immediately, another clause states
that they are to be executed when
Council so directs. He pointed out
that the bonds might be idle for a
year or so with the city treasurer be-
fore being sold.
Councilman Draper said this present
administration may not dispose of all
the bonds. II they are held until an
other administration takes charge the
city will have the expense OF preparing
new bonds for the ones signed now will
not be good if not sold under the pres
ent city government. The resolution
prevailed despite the objections offered

the question of good roads. How

You may measure the cleanliness

also measure the progress of ma

come to stay interest will be Kept at
white heat until the entire country is
gridironed with good roads.
There was a time when any kind
of road pleased the people. There
