Propose Repairs on All Streets (Continued from Fag-e One; crty owners would allow the street to be concreted, because of the high cost. for one, want the street repaired and done as well and as cheaply as it's put down right, I believe this asphalt will stand up." In urging that some definite action be taken on Coates street. Mayor Willott asserted the street's condition now is due, not to poor material, but to the fact that it was put down wrong. He pointed to Columbia, where, he said "they won't buy anything but colS rolled," and asserted that "if it's put down right here, it will stand up a long time." Urges Other Work Mayor Willott also brought up the question of repairing all other streets here needing repairs, and asserted, "We've got a chance to do this work for only $10 or $1- a lot, and if we don't take advantage of it we're A set of dumbbells. "We've got enough streets here in Moberly needing repairs to put every unemployed man in the city to work for the next two years, if we'd only repair them.

If we don't put those men to work now, it's going to cost us more than $10 or $12 to take care of them during the next five years--and you can put that in your pipe and smoke it. "I will go on record here tonight as favoring the forcing of repairs on all streets under the 60-cent law and if the council will back me up, we'll do it. I don't care whether I'm ever elected mayor again, or whether I get five votes or a thousand votes next time. I'm in here to do something for Moberly in the next two years, and I'm not playing politics. I think if we repaired these streets, we would be doing something for Moberly." All Streets Eligible In making CWA repairs last year five two-course brick streets were resurfaced here.

Under that program, CWA officials refused to permit relaying of single-course brick streets. It was stated last night however, that repairs of single-course streets would be permitted under the PWA program. The council -voted unanimously in favor of ordering all streets repaired, provided funds can be obtained, or other arrangements made for the purchase of necessary materials. The finance and purchase and supplies committees are to investigate possibilities and report at the regular council meeting in September. If arrangements have be made, necessary ordinances will be adopted and the repair program gotten under way as quickly as AS1 request that surfacing Burkhart street, from Sturgeon west three blocks, be included the program was submitted by W.

N. Jennings and approved by the -council. Mr. Jennings sug- gelted that the street be surfaced Stth 13 or inches of tal tion material (gravel and cla and then covered with hot asphalt To'sell CWA Tax B.Us In addition to adopting the street repair program, the councU last night authorized sale of SA IM 25 in special tax bills issued last year during the CWA repair program. It was ordered that tn esc bills be sold at face value.

Mritt the purchaser to have the accrued interest. The tax bills bear interest at per cent Tax bills included in the list are: 34 on South Clark street; 12 on North Fourth street: on Burkholder street; 25 on Franklin street: 15 on South Fourth street 1 on East Carpenter street; 3 on Tannehill street; and 5 on South Clark street. The council also granted Fiorita the right to mo tail beer license from 122 Reed street to 120 North Clark street, the 5 per cent license to fee changed to one for sale of her and granted John Formento to sell 5 per cent beer at 122 West Reed street. A $50 donation was made to property owners along the road Extending west from the JSoy Scout Camp and north to Fusk Avenue for repairs on the route. This road is to be graveled by the Eight Mile Koad District and property owners are to pay part of ihe cost in putting the road in shape for gravel.

Sewage Plant Complaint A complaint on, stench arising from the West Disposal plant was made by Val -Happier, and the council agreed to make an investigation and attempt to remedy the condition. "When I was a boy we had a. beautiful, clean, sparkling stream, out there," Mr. Kappler asserted. "You could catch all kinds of fish there.

From 20 to 30 boys were there every day in summer time at their favorite swimming 1 holes. Some of you can remember old Rocky Bend. "Now what have we? Why the poor old turtles that can stand most anything die if they get in it. It takes the hair off a cow's legs if she wades through it. The stench is something no human, white or black, can stand.

Gentlemen, something has to be done, or I'm going to have to leave ray home, or do something else." Closing his remarks, Mr. Kappler extended an invitation to members of the council and city, officials to visit his home, any evening, and spend an hour with him. "I've got a nice croquet grounds there," he said, "and mig-ht serve a little refreshments, and I know you'll have the opportunity to smell for yourself whether or not I have a complaint coming. After you do this, if you think everything is right, I'll say no more." Bond Issue Needed. T.

R. Bell, commenting on Mr. Kappler's request, stated: "Mr. Kappler has something to complain about, and one of these days when the city is named in a damage suit voters here are going to wake up to that fact. It would take a bond issue to maJcc the necessary improvements, and I'd like to make them, but I don't believe the voters would approve the plan." Other members of the council voiced similar beliefs, but each asserted the bond issue could not be carried now.

It was decided, however, to send a fire department pumper to the plant every few days and flush out the stream.

"That company held the securities of the holding company?" O'Connor asked. "That company held the securities of the holding company which we owned." Hopson replied. "What did the public have in that company?" "Bonds." "How much?"
