ENLARGE PLANT

Directors of the Illinois Oil COM
pany yesterday afternoon tabled
the proposition to proceed at once
with the contemplated enlargement
of the plant at Twenty-fourth street
and Fourth avenue, pending pos
sible action by the city looking to
the raising of the Twenty-fourth
street grade four feet
It was the sentiment of the di-
Tectors that until the city commits
sioners act upon the report of the
city planning commission, and the
matter of the grading of Twenty
fourth street is definitely acted up-
on. it would be unwise TO proceed
with an improvement on which the
board intends ultimately to ex-
pend approximately $4,000
The city planning commission
and the city commissioners are
scheduled to meet Dec. 6, at which
time action on the approval of the
report of the commission is an
ticipated.
The directors yesterday withheld
decision on the proposed enlarge
ment until the grading proposition
is acted upon, or assurance is Civ
en- that the present drop of two
feet in the grade from Fourth to
Third avenue will be remedied by
the city authorities
