MAYOR AWAITS
MOVE OF CLUB
FOR new LIGHT
Haas Says Committee Wants
Copy of 1915 Acts Before
Taking Steps Before
Works Board.

Mayor Robbins today expressed hope
that some definite action would be
taken in the near future for the in
stallation of ornamental lighting sys-
TENS in the Main street business dis
trict and section Of Fort Wayne ave-
nue. and North E street: He said the
board of public works was looking to
the Commercial club to institute the
necessary proceedings to provide for
such Improvements.
I'VE have been waiting to secure a
copy of the law passed by the last
legislature, which provides the method
to be pursued for the installation of
ornamental lighting systems" Secre-
tary Haas Of the Commercial club said
today. "The public improvement CON-
mittee of the club hopes to get busy
on this project soon, as it's thoroughly
familiar with the procedure it must
follow"
Copies of the acts of the 1915 legis-
lature were received by a number of
local attorneys and city and county Of
ficials over two weeks ago.
The ornamental lighting law pro-
vides that petitions to have such sys-
TENS installed must be signed by at
least seventy-6ve per cent of the prop
erty owners in the block or blocks to
be improved. Property owners must
also be assessed for share of the
cost of installing and maintaining such
systems.
Under this law it will cost property
owners a little more to install orna.
mental lights than would have been
the case if it had been possible to
make the improvements under the plan
which was originally agreed to by the
board of public works and the Com
mercial club.

three months and the only expense

twenty-four miles, and the troops occu-
plying them were exposed 70 a conesn-
trated artillery fire.

lows:
