VOTE ON SEWER
REPAIR TUESDAY
East Moline TO Ballot On whether
or Not to Issue $50 900 to
Improve System.
Especial Moline Service. }


Next Tuesday citizens of East
Moline will vote on whether or not
the city of East Moline should is
sue bonds in the sum of 100000 to
be used to improve the city's sewer
system and to erect pumping sta
ton as demanded by the govern
ment before it undertook to build
the federal houses in that district.
The special election was author
lied by the aldermen at a recent
meeting.
Second ward voters will go to
the polls at the Peoples Power
company Office instead OF to the po-
lice station, because of the lack of
room at the station since it has
been rearranged. This announce
ment was made by George D. Long,
city attorney.
Surveyed By q. S. Agents.
When the United States Housing
corporation planned on building
houses in East Moline. it made a
survey of the city's sewer system.
1t claimed that the condition of the
system was very bad and that it
was entirely inadequate. The
houses were built, however, on the
promise Of the city to improve the
system. The engineers say that
following a rain the sewer backs
up and fills Easements of the homes
in various districts with water.
The pumping station would be
built in the vicinity of Fourth ave-
nue. and Eleventh street. Payment
of the $4,000 bond issue, which
will bear interest at per cent. will
spread over a period of 20 years.
