City Council in
Regular Grind
Monday Night
Routine Reports and First of Month
Business Discussed by Members
Scouts Visit Meeting.
The city council Monday evening
held their first session of the month
which was given over to the routine
reports of the various departments
of the government and also in the
discussion cf matters of city work
projects as well as the revival of a
neighborhood dispute in the west part
of the city.
City Treasurer M. D. Brown had
an excellent report for the month and
which showed $14,52S.92 in the city
treasury.
City Clerk Albert Olson had also
found April a very good month for
collection and -$1,703. 4G had been
gathered into the city strong box.
The report of Chief of Police Lib
rrshal showed two arrests and $27.75
in fines and costs had been paid.
Judge Graves gave a report for the
last two weeks of April and in which
$13.25 and $9.55 had been collect-
ed from the wrongdoers.
The council received a reminder
of the long standing disagreement in
the west part of the city when a com
munication was received from James
Holy, Sr., relative to the repair of
an alley in block 26, Duke's addition,
also asking for work on Duke street
and place it in good shape as others
using the street and alley were tres
passing on his property. This mat
ter was referred to the streets, alleys
and bridges committee and the mem
bers of the council from the third
ward.
The application of Charles Peter
seen for a license to operate a re
creational parlor in the city was re
ceived with the license fee and on
motion the license was ordered grant
ed. Mayor Lushinsky reported that the
physical health of the city was ex
cellent and barring a few childish
diseases there was nothing of a ser
ious nature. The city had completed
their cleanup of debris over the city
and the fire department also had
made an inspection of the city.
City Attorney J. H. Davis reported
on the Hazzard case in the supreme
court where a rehearing had been
denied and also that various proper
ties here would be affected by the de
cision. Chairman Comstock of the lighting
committee reported that it had been
urged that the electrolier posts be
painted and that the globes of the
electroliers also be cleaned. There
was also some discussion of the South
Fifth street electroliers where two
are out of commis&iou owing to de
fective conduts for the cable. It was
decided to have this repaired and
Kobert Cappell, who had made an
offer on the work be engaged.
Mayor Lushinsky gave a word of
welcome to the members of the Boy
Scouts .who were present in a body
to witness the process of city legis
lation, the maj-or inviting them back
again. E. H. "Wescott responded for
the Scout group.
Councilman Vroman stated that
he had several requests from officers
and others for a stop and go sign
at Sixth and Main streets. He thought
the cost would be small to have the
intersection covered by this form of
sign. No definite action was taken
on the matter.
The finance committee presented a
resolution transferring $300 from
the city general fund to the gasoline
tax fund which ha3 but $4.75 at the
present time. This brings up the
amount now due the general fund
$1,612.10 for transferred money.
Chairman Webb of the TVPA com
mittee stated that as far as he was
concerned if the city had any more
WPA projects that they have a city
purchasing agent. The council was
constantly paying out large amounts
for gas, oil and repairs as well as
tools that were being constantly pur
chased. He wanted the forman of
the work on any of the WPA proj
ects to make a check of all tools and
report the same to the city council.
The committee also had purchased
some cable from Floyd Richardson at
a very good price.
Councilman Vincent of the fourth
ward reported that he had found tools
used on the Wintersteen hill project,
scattered all over that section where
they had been dropped by workmen
at quitting time and he had on sev
eral occasions picked them up and
placed them in places of safety.
Mayor Lushinsky stated that the
city had lost money on the tools
because of their being lost and also
constant purchase.
Councilman Tippens of the streets,
alleys and bridges committee, com
plained that tools of his department
had been borrowed and never return
ed to the city tool house.
Councilman Vroman criticized the
condition of the WPA pavement on
north Sixth street where in rainy
weather or when the water was used
in that section to wash off paving, it
stood in the street like a fish pond
and that the condition should be
remedied.
Councilman Tippens suggested that
a drain be placed in the affected area
to carry off any surplus water.
Councilman Comstock also re
marked on the condition of the street
and the need for some action to have
it drained or else have a change
made in the paving.
H. A. Schneider was a visitor, at
the meeting and was called on by the
mayor to offer a few remarks as a for
mer mayor of the city and a large
taxpayer. Mr. Schneider suggested
if any WPA work is granted here
that it be for the repaving of the
paving on Sixth and Vine streets
where at times it is almost im
passable. Mr. Schneider also urged
that some change be made in the
parking on Sixth street where there
is much congestion when large cars
or trucks are parked there. As to
the stop and go sign on Sixth street,
Mr. Schneider was uncertain as this
is the intersection of two federal
highways, whether or not this would
be approved. Mr. Schneider compli
mented the council on the financial
setup of the city and which was
gradually reducing the city obliga
tions and in all ways had striven to
make savings by reducing interest by
refunding bonds. He hoped that the
jcity would continue this safe and
j conservative policy. He also urged
the councilman to serve with the
best interests of all of the people of
the city at heart.
A representative of the Turk-Sum-merfield
Insurance company of Des
Moines was present and addressed the
council on the matter of special forms

ance. The following claims were ordered

PILLAGE CEMETERY
Again complaints are coming of
the removal of flowers from the
graves in the cemetery. This practice
is most regrettable. Surely if flow-j
ers must be taken, they could be se-!
cured from other sources than the
'graves of the dead.

YOU hear a lot about "the low-price field" these
days. A good many cars claim to be in it.
) So whenever the low-price field is mentioned,
rrmemlxT :
Until Ford came, no average American could
own a car.
Today all Ford prices are still low with the
prices of the 60-horsepower Ford V-8 $30 to
g-60 lower than those of any other car of rom-
parahl
e size.
But with Ford, "low price" doesn't merely;
mean low figures on the price tag. It means much
more than that. It means low prices and low
costs all the car'g long life. Low prices for ser
vice for parts and, above all, for operation.
Both Ford V-8 engine sizes are economical to
operate. The C horsepower gives greater gas
oline mileage this year than ever, and the "60"
delivers the highest mileage in Ford history.
Private owners, cab companies, fleet operators
all report that the "60" averages from 22 to 27
miles per gallon of gasoline.
Check and see how much Ford saves you.
Ford Founded the Low-price Field
Ford Keeps That Field Low-priced Today
Ford V-8 Prices Begin at $529
AT DEARBORN FACTORY. TRANSPORTATION CHARGES, STATE AND FEDERAL TAXES EXTRA
This price is for the
60-hp. Coupe equipped
with front and rear
hampers, spare tire,
horn, windshield wiper,
sun visor, glove compart
ment and ash tray.

usual down-pay
