fieaeral Agent. kl In fe-ce of their action in refusing the request of the Land Commission for $150 to send two members to the social agencies conference to be held in Los Angeles May 4 and 5, the city commissioners, Tuesday, authorized W. B. Rohl, building? inspector, to attend the state housing commission conference to be held in that city on the same dates.

Simmons and the motion was carried.
