Some details of the development plan remain to be checked, and the WPA project will then be worked up for formal submission at an early date. The North Alton playground site was secured by public subscriptions after an organization had been formed by residents of the North Side area, to promote it.

Madrid Western Front Rumbles As Drive Resumes MADRID, Aug. 10. western front rumbled into new life today in what appeared to be the start of a second big insurgent push to hammer a government wedge out of insurgent rear-guard territory.

Generalissimo Francisco Franco's infantrymen, based in shell- ripped villages and on the sun- broiled plans west of this besieged city, renewed their attack on Vil- Innueva De La Granada, the point of General Jose Miaja's spearhead. Although the onslaught lacked the intensity of the former counter-offensive, it seemed to be the first move in a new attempt to re- all the towns which Miaja's sweating "Miliclanos" seized during the first two weeks of July. The government command asserted that the Madrid troops repulsed today't onslaught. A tremendous explosion could be heard above the confused undertone of rifle and machine gun fire who na ninsurgent munitions depot, not far fram the government's trenches, was blown up. Many Insurgents were believed killed or wounded by the splintering shells.

(Franco's daily communique reported artillery duels in several sectors, out gave little detail on the fighting anywhere In Spain.) The government forces on the Teruel front in eastern Spain worked feverishly at a widespread system of fortifications even while Franco's artillery tried to blast further openings for his month-old thrust toward the strategic Madrid-Valencia road. The Alton town board, composed of all the altermen with Mayor Struif as pretldlng officer. Monday night approved a change In its meeting hour. Heretofore, the town board has gone Into semi-monthly session following each stated meeting of the city council finance committee. Under the new arrangement, the town board meeting will be held first, and the city finance session will follow.

The rule adopted Is that the town board shall meet at 7:30 p. m. on the Mondays prior to the semi-monthly City Council meetings, which fall on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month. All aldermen are expected to attend meetings of the town board, but there are only six aldermen on the City Council finance committee, and it it not obligatory that aldermen not on the finance body attend its sessions. Purpose of the new rule on town board meetings is to get the board session over early, and leave aldermen who need not attend city committee meetings free for the rest of the evening.

Some of the aldermen are employed at night. They can get away long enough for the town board sessions but sometimes cannot remain the entire evening. The new rule will better suit their convenience. When there was much business before the city finance body, It sometimes happened that the town board session could not be held until nearly 10 p. even later.

Before the town board acted to change its meeting hour, the finance committee voted approval to the new plan. Mayor Struif was not present last night, having not returned from a vacation trip. Chairman Winkler told the finance committee that the mayor had asked the change in town board meeting be considered. Alderman Cox said he had talked to the mayor a week ago with regard to the plan suggesting It would best suit everyone's convenience to have the town board meet first. Aldermen are paid for town board attendance at a rate of $2-50 "per meeting attended." The town board has the duty of checking accounts of the poormaster and monthly reports of the supervisor, Frank Girard.

When the town board met last night, relief accounts aggregating $8278.64 were audited and approved, and the supervisor's report for July showing status of town funds as of Aug. 1 was read and accepted.

AUGUST 10, Finding city funds to provide for the Installation of on Rock Spring drive, between College and Brown street, is a problem the lights' committee of City Council is seeking to solve.

Pointing out that the drive affords the only entryway to Alton Memorial Hospital, now near completion, Alderman McPherson, who recently made request for the lights, called up the matter for further attention at the city finance meeting Monday night. Chairman Burns of the lights committee responded that his committee has not been dilatory in looking into the matter. A survey has been made on which he accompanied the city engineer, he said, and it was found that five lights would be needed to properly Illuminate the new drive a sort of parkway lined over much of its route with trees. Lights of 250- candlepower have been suggested, he said, making total annual cost for their- maintenance $162.50 a year. "I have not reported before this," Burns said, "because we have been trying to work out a financing plan to take care of the lights for the remainder of this year." At a recent council meeting it was brought out that surfacing of Rock Spring drive with oil is proposed under an oiling program to be carried out with MFT funds on which state approval has been asked.

As soon as heavy hauling to the Alton Memorial Hospital job is past, the engineering department plans to have the drive regraded and shaped, then given the oil dressing.
