ternined for this year. The levy

The street resurfacing fund was
clipped from 24 to 2 cents and the

upon from the gasoline tax" Mayor
Shank said in explaining the slicing
of the general fund.
For Plan Commission
Shank was surrounded by four
belligerent members Of the city plan
commission today and yielded to
their demand for levy of 1 cent to
