Plans For Cutting Of
Delivery Service Will
Be Considered Tonight

Retail merchants of the city will
convene this evening at the Elk's
Club for a dinner meeting. At that
time recommendations of the COM
mercial economy board of the Coun-
Gil of National Defense will be con-
sidered. This especially will pertain
to the conversation of men and We
hicles used in the delivery service
and in branches of business that
could be easily eliminated without
embarrassment to conducting the
affairs.
While it is not probable that all
the delivery system in the city will
be eliminated at the present time,
purchasers of small packages will
doubtless have to do their bit by
carrying their own bundles. All re-
turn of articles may also be elimi-
mated, as will the C. o. D. service.
A letter sent out by the board
points out how necessary it is at this
time for us to conserve our resources
in every possible way. Only the
most unnecessary parts of business
Will receive attention at this time.

DETERMINED TO
CLEAR CAPITOL
ZONE AT ONCE
Remaining Buildings Will Be
Razed; to Transfer Fire
Companies

Governor Brumbaugh and his as
sociates on the Board of Public
Grounds and Buildings are deter
mined to allow nothing to stand in
the way of the prompt clearance OF
the Capitol Park zone of the remain
ing buildings. The buildings still
standing in this area will. be sold al
auction on Saturday, July %, and in
this last list will be included the Mt
Vernon firehouse and the old build
ing of the citizen Fire Company,
both in Fourth street.
City Commissioner Gross has ad-
vised the Superintendent of Public
Grounds and Buildings that both
these fire companies have been no.
tilted to vacate the buildings, and
Superintendent Shreiner is authority
for the statement that there will be
no further procrastination in the
matter
Arrangements have been made for
the placing of the Mt. Vernon equip
ment at the Hope enginehouse and
| the Citizen Company will occupy
| jointly the headquarters of the
Friendship Fire Company, in South
Third street. While each of these
| firehouses will have two companies
all the organizations will maintain
their official relation to the depart
ment.
So much depends upon prompt
ness in clearing the Capitol Park dis
trict that further delay will not DC
permitted. 1t is fully expected thai
all buildings will have disappeared
by the 18th of August and likely be.
fore that date.
