sands OF sales for the frequent best

Back in those days OF hand presses

The following resolution on fire

Whereas. damage and destruction
amounting 10 nearly $500, 900. 900 20

100000 BOND
ISSUE FOR HARBOR

City Council last night accepted
three invitations TO participate in
anniversary exercises 10 be held IN
the near future. Tho occasions are:
Stationary Engineers. in Eden Hall
October 81; Sons OF Italy, Column
bus Day celebrations; Community
Service celebration next Monday.
The first and second readings OF
an ordinance providing for a bond
issue of 100000 for the continue
ton of work on the harbor terminal,
were given and the proposed ordi-
nance referred to the finance com
mittee. Final action on the matter
is expected next Thursday night.
This is the amount recently asked
for by the Board OF Harbor Commits
Eioners 10 meet heavy payments fall
ing due the first OF October.
The original bond issue authorized
for the harbor work was S2,50O,00O.
When the $500 900 bonds have been
sold there will remain about $780,
600 OF the original bond issue. The
bond Issue OF 100000 will provide
for the Installation OF practically all
machinery apd equipment and con-
struction bills. The remaining $780,
600 will be held in reserve as an
emergency fund 20 be used by the
board as the occasion requires for
the finishing touches 20 the terminal.
Arrangements for the sale will be
made by tho Sinking Fund Commits
sioners so that the proceeds from
the $500 900 bond sale will be avail
able not later than November 10.
First and second readings were
given TO an ordinance, amending an
ordinance passed May IL, 1921, au-
thorizing a bond Issue OF 100000
at per cent for the public library
site. As money is more plentiful
the rate OF interest IS considered too
high by members of council. and the
proposed ordinance reduces the rate
Of interest 20 4 y per cent. No time
has yet been fixed for the sale of
these bonds.
Council received a communication
from Mayor Harvey recommending
that Council appropriate money for
the restoration OF the portraits OF
Lincoln, Washington and Lafayette.
which hang on the Council chamber
walls, and a portrait OF former
Mayor william B. Virgins. which
hangs In the mayors Office. The
communication, containing estimates
for the cost OF the work, was re-
ferred to the public building com.
mittee.

a number of people had complained

and suggested that the ordinance |
might be amended so that the clocks !

Councilman Abrahams pointed |
out that the local ordinance, cover
