Attorneys for Fitzgerald renewed
efforts to show that blame for the
tangled finances of the Security Oil
g. Refining Company, which he sold
to Walter r. Varnes and Charles r.
Eddy of Independence, Kan, should
not be laid on Fitzgerald.
William Mesel, Geneva, Ind, oil
man, who charged that Fitzgerald
never paid him for oil leases which
he bought from him, was placed on
the stand and Showered with can
celled checks designed to show that
he had received several thousand
dollars in payment. Messed, how
ever, persistently> chung to his con-
tention that the money was for op-
Grating costs Of the oil wells and
was not in payment for the oil land.

APPEALS BOARD
Councilman Wants Ordi-
nance to Abolish Body. F.,

Councilman Austin H. Todd
coming board member, introduced
an ordinance abolishing the board
of coming appeals, which was created
by the council some months ago, at
council session, Monday night.
1--WE want to abolish the board,
because it just makes an extra
board and the plan commission
can handle its work all right.
have nothing personal against the
board members" Todd said.
Majority faction leaders have
urged the resignation of James
Recap and Jacob H. Wolf, coming
board members. Rumor at city hall
says councilmen we're jealous of the
boards power in issuing variances
TO the building restriction or
dinance.
Another report was that some of
the councilman had conferred with
Gustave G. Schmidt, plan COM
mission president, recently and de-
Cided to give the plan body its for
ner powers.
