FOUR MAY BE NECESSARY IN
MOTORlZING THE PUBLIC
WORKS DEPARTMENT.
COUNCIL SOON TO DECIDE
Report of Special Committee to
Be Submitted at Meeting of
Council to Be Held on Next
Monday Night.

In order that the committee can
ascertain just what the auto trucks
necessary to motorize brunswick's
public works department will cost, the
city is this morning advertising for
bids for these trucks, which, it is con-
sidered, is another step toward re-
placing the various wagons, dump
carts, etc, now used by the city, with
motor trucks.
The advertisement calls for bids for
one two-ton truck and three one-ton
motor truck. The bids must be in by
noon on next Saturday
Although the question of motorizing
the department has never come up
officially before city council, it has
been hmndled by council as a com
mittee of the whole, which authorized
the advertising for bids.
1t is understood that the bids will
be opened on next Saturday, and that
on Monday night, Feb. %, the special
committee composed of Mayor Hop
kins, Alderman Dart, chairman of the
public works committee, and City En-
gineer J. B. Hfgt, wffi submit to eoun-
ell a full report showing the cost of
the machines, together with compar
lson as to the cost of the present

sus OF opinion that the showing viii
be such good one that the change

Brunswick, Ga, Feb. 10, 1916.

The above is the first formal an
Nouncement made for county of
flee, although rumors Of a number of
candidates have been current during
the past few days.
The News announced a few days
ago that it was more than probable
that Mr. Butts would be a candidate
for clerk of the superior court, and
therefore his formal announcement
will not come as a surprise to his
many friends.
In announcing for the office, Mr.
Suits stated yesterday that he would
make an active campaign, and added
that he was greatly encouraged by the
many offers of support since the pub
lication a few days ago that he was
being considered as a candidate for
the office
AS was stated in The News few
days ago Mr.. Butts is one of the best
known young attorneys in the city,
and in. the past has figured more or
less in politics. He has represented
Glynn county in the legislature, has
served as mayor for one term, is at
present at the head of the Brunswick
Board of Trade and secretary of the
Glynnn county Democratic executive
committee.
The office of clerk. as is well
known, is now held by H. F. du Bignon
and while he has not as yet formally
announced, he has stated that he will
be a candidate for reelection.
