To DISCUSS TRACK
PAVING CONTRAC
Board of Works Proposes Com
pany Pay Excess.

A contract requiring the Indian
apoIis Street Railway Company to pay
the cost of paving car tracks in ex'
cess Of the cost for the remainder of
the street was to be discussed by
the board Of public works and officials
of the company at a meeting today at
the city hall.
The street car company, operating
under an indetermlnate permit from
the public service commission Of In
diana, has contended it is not re
quired to pay any Of the cost OF
paving between the tracks, the burden
falling on the property owners.
The new contract would provide that
the railway company pay the cost OF
paving the street where there is car
line over and above the cost of paving
a similar street where there were no
car tracks.
Robert I. Todd, president of the rail-
way company, stated that he would
be present at the board meeting to dis
cuss the paving question, but declined
to discuss the contract.
John L. Elliot, city engineer, stated
that if such an agreement could be
reached, the question of paving many
unimproved streets where there are
car tracks would be simphfied.
