Street Dept. Problems
 Up For Discussion
Mayor PerriellO, Works Board Meet This Afternoon;
 McMahon, Cassin Made Acting Supts.

Mahon and Mir. Cassin would be left in charge until the end of the year. The question of granting them sal- ary increases because of their iii- creased responsibilities was taken up but no action taken.
 The board voted to have Mir. Cassin and MT. McMahon attend meetings in the future.

Men employed there are now working only three days week, and there is only enough money on hand to continue this short work. week sys- tenn for another week or two.
 No funds for wages are available unless transfers from other city ap- propriations are made. Without such transfers, the street and water de- partments will have to close down compeltely.
