COUNTY AND
CITY CONFER
Barnett Represents COun-
ity Board at Meeting
This Afternoon.
BRIGHTON LOOMS UP
Town of Brighton Sends Peti-
ton for Development of
Burlington Road.

Negotiations were pending this af-
in the office of the city attorney, c..
E. Randall, between representatives of
the city and county, in order to find
a way in which the county and city
can arrange for condemnation proceed
ings of the still unacquired property
on the new courthouse site.
The county board in closing its SEES
sion Tuesday left the matter with the
district attorney and the new build
ing committee of the board to find a
way of cooperating with the city with
out jeopardizing the county board in
any way Morris Barnett together
with city manager Osborn and others
will confer with attorneys Cavanagh
and Mittelstaed who during the ill
ness of Clifford E. Randall are repre-
senting him as counsel for the city.
Board Adjourns until Call.
The county board adjourned late
Tuesday afternoon after a session of
one day in which all supervisors were
present except James Filbin and Rich
ard Dowse, adjourning until called to-
gether by petition.
The county board listened to petit
ton containing 108 signers of the town
of Brighton, asking the board to re-
turn an appropriation for road con-
struction to the two unpaved miles
of the Burlington road. The petition
stated that Brighton had raised GER
tain amount of money for the i'm
provement of this stretch and that
subsequently the board voted to trans
fer the money for the Improvement Of
the road north of Brighton.
Oratory blossomed upon the subject
until the gathering in the court room
resembled fourth of July celebration.
Supervisor Gull of the town of Bright
on declared that the raod was in good
shape for travel and that there was
room upon it for two vehicles to pass
one another. He said that the only
people the road could not benefit were
speed demons and auto bandits from
other cities.
A Great Highway.
Attorney Ward Of Chicago, repre-
senting the petitioners replied in a
Patrick Henry speech, mentioning pa
triotism and the world war and other
subjects, and called attention to the
fact that the Burlington road was
an important highway destined to have
great future.
"The Burlington road" said Attorn-
ey Ward, SIS travelled by people from
all over the United States, while the
road north of it serves no other pur-
pose than to benefit one or two men.
This great display of oratory about
the Burlington Road being in repair
is all bunk"
Supervisor Gull replied that when
/ the question of improving the Burl-
| ington road was submitted to the peo-
pie of the township, 100 said they
were satisfied and only % were not
The other orator replied that many OF
/ these 100 had signed the present pc
tition asking that the money be re-
| turned.
Board Kills Action.

on a par in this regard.
Both Are Overcrowded.
Both Racine and Ke~o-tt are en-
titled to new post Office lings." he
SAID. "Kenosha must nave such
building on account of the adoption
of Identification city plan which
provides for the widening of Market

Will take away the present post Office

Present Building Too Small.
Mr.. Cooper spoke sse etbw0,
condition Of the post offices in both
OF the cities and in regard to the sit
uation at Kenosha, he said:
THE present post Office building at
Kenosha is entirely too small to ac-
commodate the great increase in the
business of the office and it is very
much overcrowded.
"The government officials recon-
mended that $125,OOO be appropriated
for site for a new building for Ke-
nosha and $275,000 for the building
itself. But nothing has been appro-
priated for Kenosha. These were
merely recommendations of govern
ment officials.
"The post Office in Racine is even
more overcrowded and inadequate
than the one at Kenosha.
To Provide for Both.
Mr.. Cooper received repeated as
surances that when the omnibus pub
lie building bill was reported to the
House that both Racine and Kenosha
would be amply provided for.
In long letter Mr.. Cooper received
from the first assistant postmaster
general, the latter says that condi-
tons at Racine, as found by postal
presented by the congressman and that
his appropriation bill seems to meet
the requirements here
! While there is nothing definite as tn
the position of that official in the case
of Kenosha, Mr. Cooper said TODAY
that there is. no doubt but that the
first assistant postmaster general is of
the same mind about Kenosha.
Nor is there any doubt" said Mr..
Cooper, "but that when the omnibus
public building bill comes in that both
cities will receive appropriations for
post office buildings to which their
needs clearly eutit1e them
kenosha Started Movement.
Kenosha was in the lead in seeking
new federal facilities. Several years
ago when the civic center plan was
first discussed, business and Industrial
leaders here sent az petition to the
proper officials for am investigation Of
the present facilities here with an
idea of securing new post office.
When Kenosha recently appeared TO
have taken the inner track due to the
fact that the government officials had
recommended that $125,0OO be appro-
priated for site here and S275,0O0
for building, great hue and cry
i'arose from Racine.
Encouraged by the new turn in af-
fairs, Kenosha citizens will continue
their campaign to convince govern
ment officials that more adequate ia
cilities are absolutely necessary here,
Postmaster German and others at the
post Office have done much to aid in
the various inspections which have
been secured and made to show the
/ situation here.
