HIGH Rentals MAY
BALK new Library
CContinued From Page 1l

about the statement of Mr.. Wales he
admitted that the negotiations for the
lease of the church property had been
dropped. because the terms proposed
for the lease of the site for a library
for a term of two hundred years were
regarded as unsatisfactory and that
the rentals proposed were too high.
From another source it was learned
that the tentative terms of the lease
provided for an annual rental of S10,-
600 a year. to be increased $500 a year
every ten years. BY this graduated
rental plan il was figured out that the
gift of 100000, promised by an uni
Identified Wilmingtonian for an endow-
ment fund to pay for the rental of
the library site. in reality would not
nav the rental fifty years or so hence.
Not only do some members of the
committee negotiating for the site for
the proposed new library feel that
the schedule for ground rents fixed
by the First Presbyterian Church
trustees would be exorbitant, but
they also claim that if the trustees of
the church are so disposed they can
sell the tract desired as a library
site.
There has been an impression in
some quarters that the property OF
the First Presbyterian Church could
not legally be sold. but it now is
claimed that the way could be cleared
legally for the sale of the property
should the trustees of the church care
to sell II.
While negotiations have been bro
ken off. so far as the rental schedule
as outlined is concerned. it is alto
gether likely that the committee rep
resenting the library may submit a
proposition to purchase the site from
the church trustees.
Some persons familiar with the sit
uation point out that the church prop
erty is not taxed and should not be
held for speculation by the church
trustees.
