plans for Thanksgiving.
The President hoped to have Col.
John Coolidge down from his Ply

That Restraining Order

Is Impossible.

Intervention by South Side
business interests may halt
Marion County opposition to
the city's $2,176,OOO flood pre-

Harry B. Dynes, vice president Of
the Belt Track Elevation League
which has battled for elevation OF

tracks since the Jewett administra-
ton told Harry Dunn. county audi
tor today that action to halt the
flood prevention plans would delay

did not want to be put in the posi-
ton Of opposing relief for the South
Side and that If the board of works
Monday confirmed resolutions calling
for immediate start of the project
acted to aid the South Side. 1t threw
a different light on the matter"
Dunn said the county was object
ing largely, because the board of
works had acted without giving the
county a voice or chance to let It's
own engineers investigate the
project. County Attorney Ryan was
to appear before the board TO register
the county's- protest, but arrived
after the resolutions had been cons
firmed.
