DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE 16 Rochester, N. Y. Tuesday, May 8, 1951 Airport Program Completion Sighted By Next Summer County Public Works Director Francis H. Carroll last night sighted the conclusion of the four million dollars Rochester Airport expansion program by mid-Summer of 1952. A $200.000 fund which the Commerce Department yesterday allocated to the airport for the 12 months beginning July 1, provided the money is made available by Congress, was seen as offering the means of winding up the big project.

The tentative federal grant would have to be matched by county money, making the available total $400,000. About $200,000 of the new money will help to finance the $600.000 administration building off Brooks the new entrance to the enlarged airport, Carroll said. Bids for this construction are to be received May, 22 and $400.000 is available from last year's appropriations. The remainder hoped-for $400.000 will complete water lines, sewers and other facilities in the Brooks Ave. section.

Over the past three the county has spent a total of $2.020.000 on the expansion program, of which half was furnished the federal government, half by the county, which owns the airport. The 1948-49 federal allocation was $675,000, that of 1949-1950 was $435,000 and last year's $400.000. Completion of the program will give the county one of the finest municipal airports in the country. City to Escape Loan Restrictions Mobilization Director Charles E. Wilson's plan to restrict municipal and state borrowing failed to alarm City Manager Louis B.

Cartwright yesterday. Rochester has no long-term borrowing in prospect except for the funding of notes issued for the new Lake Ontario water supply plant, he said. And as for short term borrowing, said the only note issues in contemplation cover projects already under way. A note issue of $3,472,500 to finance in part the Lake Ontario system along with other improve: ments will be held today as scheduled Comptroller Robert P. Aex said.

Besides the waterworks, the issue covers traffic control operations and street improvements, Wilson requested that municipalities and states put off projects that can be postponed without embarrassment until the national emergency is over. He urged that proposed bond issues of more than a million dollars be cleared through regional federal investment committees." While he foresaw no immediate effect on Rochester's financing, Cartwright said he would give careful study to Wilson's request when the full text is before him. Program Planned On Mental Health Local observance of Mental Health Week will be highlighted today with presentation of a play, "Scattered Showers." at 8:15 p. m. in the Hillel School, 1430 East Ave.

Joseph B. Cramer, instructor in psychiatry at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry. The program will be open to the public, according to Dr. Ralph T. Collins, chairman of the Mental Health Committee of the Mention Association of Rochester de County, which is sponsoring the observance.
