City Buys Five
Generators For
Emergency Use

Police Department is minus it's
radio communications between it's
control board and the cruisers, and
between the city-county hook-up.
Such situation could prove a
serious handicap in the function
ing of the vital police department.
The largest generator, Is kilo-
watt model, will be installed in the
basement of City Hall. 1t will be
an emergency equipment to main
tain radio communications, as we'll
as provide light and maintain fur
mace controls.
A smaller, three XIV generator
will be installed in the radio tower
in Forest Hill Park. These two
pieces of equipment were pur-
chased, on bids, from Nook &
O'Neill Inc, for $3,195. Thirty day
delivery is assured.
On their bid of S508.50 the city
bought from Homelight Corp, a
$500 watt generator to be placed
in the No. l Fire Station. A three
XIV, portable type from Bevier
Sales for S570 will be assigned to
the Service Department. 1t will
power the electric saw and serve in
many other ways for this depart
ment.
Should anything at any time go
wrong with the present police radio
transmitter in the police head
quarters, the new transmitter could
take over until necessary repairs
are made. This equipment was bid
in by Motorola Inc, for S3,25O.

Bohn Cites N Need Of
City-Beautifu| Planning

ditions, when he talked last week
to the Mems Club of the East
Cleveland Congregational Church.
Through his experience in the
Cleveland City Council and in the
Ohio Legislature, Mr.. Bohn has
come to know the problem init
mately in it's social, it's financial,
and its legal aspects. The special
interests of property owners and
the short-sighted concern of law
makers moved Mr.. Bohn to prepare
law on the state level which was
adopted first in Ohio and since
has been a model for control laws
in forty-five other states, in the
effort to close the gap between the
amount that families of low income
can pay and the amount that is
financially profitable for landlords
to demand. He reviewed the efforts
made in both private and public
housing projects, illustrating his
statements from his knowledge of
conditions in Cleveland. The plan
ming by small cities such as East
Cleveland, which has comparatively
little unoccupied sections will be
the wise method to provide better
living conditions for the next two
or three generations.
Z The speaker was introduced by
Harry Windsor, program chairman,
short business meeting was led
by President David Davies, and
music was led by Richard Roger,
with Robert Matson at the piano.
