City Market Lot Considered the

operate In the Plan.

The need OF convention hall In Bur-
ineton was again emphasized Tuesday
evening at the meeting of the Commercial
club. Chairman Max L. Powell of the
committee upon the matter reported that
two meetings had been held, at the sec
ond OF which the opinion was unanimous
that the immediate need Is for conven-
ton hall rather than for city hall.
Other considerations that impressed the
committee members in this direction were
the evident local sentiment against bond
ing the city for any considerable sum OF
money at the present time. the fact that
to make q convention hail a part of =
new city hall would add $4,000 to the
latter's cost, and finally, the great ad-
vantage of having the proposed conven-
ton hall on the street level, where dan
ger from fire would be practically elim-
mated, because OF the fact that there
would be no stories under 1t, where fire
could start, and also because of the
ease Of exit In case Of emergency.
II the city market lot were used, point
