Elder FavOrs Project

Elder FavOrs Project
Perry said plans are prepared for
the LII miles improvement. The
park board also cOntemplates widen
ing the 1900 foot strip between
BelIefontaine and keystone which
was built by Marion county. The
eighteen-foot roadway will be
widened to thirty feet if the project
goes through.
The city owns lOO-foot right-of-
way.
Perry said it will cost about $76,-
600 to construct a boulevard from
at Thirty Eighth street, which will
Millersvilie to the Fall Greek bridge
link the boulevard system.
"I would like to see the project
started again, right away" said
Elder, as he reviewed the history OF
the boulevard program.
1.-TWO former boards were favor
able to the plan but the late ad-
ministration was unfriendly to the
project" Elder said.
cit Was Mixed Up"
Adolph G. Embardt, park board
member, said "the first thing to do
is for the board to determine wheth-
er we shall go ahead with the pro-
ject."
"This board has not decided to
make Fifty-ninth street boulevard.
We better talk about that instead OF
how wide it is to be-" Emhardt said.
John E. Minor, park board presi-
dent, favors the Fifty-ninth street
route rather than the SiXty-third
street plan.
"The thing was mixed up when I
came on the board. You couldn't tell
what the status was" Minor de-
clared.
When the board bucked on adopt
ing an improvement resolution,
Elder urged, that the former reso-
buttons which have been on the
minutes two years, be rescinded and
Attorney Edward B. Raub Jr. be
instructed to prepare new resolu-
tons.
II think the board wants to look
over this territory before acting"

 Our policy is not dictated by hatred of England, but by love of Wales and civilization. The SC. curity and peace of England can be better assured by the neigh. borhood of healthy Wales than by the contact of a denationalized and disintegrated Wales, Il pos. sible source of revolt and con. stant unrest"
 The Welsh home rule move. ment really dates back to 12S2 when Llewelyn, the fast independ ent Welsh Prince, was killed fighting the English, and his bro ther, David, captured and exeeut- ed.

 The Colorado school offers ona such scholarship each year for each state or territory of the country, upon the proper recom- mendations of the State Snperin- tendent of Public Instruction. and Milton Lagergren is the third to be awarded it in Alaska, Mr Hen. derson said.
