NEW PLANS DRAWN
 FOR HIGH SCHOOL

Today City Engineer B. D. Blakes- lee and Architect Richard Wulzen are making their final inspection of the new plans and specifications for Ju- neaus new high school building. These plans are to be submitted to the school board and the committee from the city council almost immediately and a new call for bids on the con struction will at once be issued.
 As soon as these plans have been accepted, the school board will call on the subscribers to the building fund for the money that has been sub scribed and will bring the notes along that are being put up for security to the subscribers. It is not anticipated that there will be any delay in collect ing the money nor will there be any time lost in the construction of the building.
 The next term of school commences September s. It will of course be inn possible to get the new building fin ished by that time. However, the board is already planning for tempo rary quarters that will offer relief for the few weeks that will elapse before the new winge of the building can be completed.

HEAVY USE OF WATER Is
IN DOWNTOWN DISTRICT

Figures obtained by the test of city
water mains just completed by II. ID.
Gerber show that the down town part
of the city uses considerably more
water than the bluff section. The data
is invaluable as aiding to solve the
problem of capacity for the two pumps
which will eventually be installed. 1t
is intended to use a low pressure
pump for the lower districts and a
high pressure one for the hill. The
difference in elevation is now imper-
fectly overcome by throttling down
valves of mains supplying the lower
part of the city.

L. w. Stanton, promoter of the Tri-

pany, attended the meeting of the
East Moline Iawmaking body last even
ing and submitted a new proposition
for a franchise. He offered cut in
rates for business service from $3.50
TO $3.50 per month and the council de-
cided TO give his terms further con-
sideration. An informal conference
Will be held Thursday evening at the
office of City Attorney F. II. Railsback.
When previous attempts have been
made to secure official authority for
the company TO do business in East
Moline the council has insisted on
cash bonus of $4,000. This the COM
pany has steadily declined TO grant,
and finally Mr.. Stanton declared he
was through with East Moline for good
and that the city would be the loser
not his company.
The proposed reduction of rates on
business phones is suggested TO take
the place OF a cash bonus from the
