how it should proceed in hearing
disputable questions arising out Of
wholesale billing for overdue assess
ments. the common councils special
committee last night threw up its
hands and authorized Chairman
David l.. Nair to meet with Mayor
Paonessa in the hope that 4 solution
OF the problem may be arrived at.

that the board Of aldermen is con-
stituted as the only body to make

the property at the time the work
was done. but who have since lost

Noted Pilot
Colonel Goebel, an outstanding
pilot who won the Dole air race to
Hawaii in 1897. and who holds the
nonstop transcontinentAl flight rec

great deal Of financial backing and
a real airplane.
Frank Phillips. Bartlesville, Okla,

"Woolarac'' in the Dole flight was
suggested ~ one Of the possible
packers OF the flight, while several

indicated they would assist In maxi
