Assuming that the bond issue is for $15 million, that the bonds mature in 25 years, and that they are held the full 25 years before redemption, the interest at 7 per cent would total $26.2.0,0110. Thus the city's approximately $10.5 million net share of the project would actually cost $41,250,000 over the 25-year period. However, if the project is successful, it would be reasonable to assume the construction. The city's share of the cost at this point is $12,326,636, partially offset by a federal credit of about $2 million toward the new City Hall and Cultural Center.

This leaves a net of approximately $10.5 million. The agency is about to convert the $10.5 million short term loan it made to meet these costs into long-term bonds. How much will it really cost before the bonds will be repaid? To receive a net of $10.5 million, the ticipated that the issue will be for $13.5 million to $14 million, and that the public bid will be for lesser amounts than indicated." In this case, other costs would be correspondingly lower.

Quinn said, however, that "it is an rally at Democratic Headquarters, 424 W. 7th Unruh lost little time capitalizing on Reagan's altercation at the University of California regents' meeting Friday. In that meeting. Reagan called either Norton Simon or Fred Dutton "a lying son of a bitch." Unruh said, "Yesterday we got the real clue why he (Reagan) won't debate Jess Unruh man to man.

I'm not much of a debater; I'm not much of a public speaker, but I know the issues. And Ronald Reagan, once he's not under the control of his managers, once he's not computerized, once he doesn't have his script, doesn't remember his lines. "His managers know that if he's not controlled, he's not capable of discussing the issues, and heaven knows what he'll say." Unruh, in a dark blue shirt, gray pants and coatless, signed autographs, shook hands, posed for pictures and plugged for local Democratic candidates. About half or more of the San Bernardino crowd consisted of young people. Standing in the bed of a pickup truck, Unruh said Reagan had handed the state (Continued on 5, Column 2) By JOE BAKER Sun-Ttlegram Butinesa Editor SAN BERNARDINO To borrow William Tecumseh Sherman's famous quote, "War is hell," financing a redevelopment project is hell on the pocketbook.

It not only takes a lot of money, but it costs a lot of money to borrow the money, to say nothing of the interest. A case in point is the downtown Central City project. The Redevelopment Agency has estimated the total cost of this project at $100 million, with million in public 1 raining Will you please investigate for me to see if there is a demand for motel or apartment management trained people.

Hemp, Charge of Murder Dropped In Slaying of Black Aelivisl SAN BERNARDINO Democrat Jess Unruh yesterday blamed Ronald Reagan's administration for Southern California's smog problem and said the governor refuses to meet him in debate because his managers fear he'll "blow his cool." "Southern California is still the smog capital of the world because the Reagan administration permits polluters to promise instead of deliver solutions," Unruh said during campaign stops in San Bernardino and Riverside. Unruh said autos put out more oxides of nitrogen today than ever before while "stationary source polluters like Standard Oil Co. and Kaiser Fontana are allowed to take their sweet time unfouling the air we breathe." Unruh said his administration, free of the influence of Detroit and other monied interests, would "say to Detroit that you build us a car by 1975 that is not going to pollute the air or we'll get someone who can. "We'd say to Standard Oil, stop polluting the air.

Shearer gubernatorial candidate By HARVEY I EIT Sun-Telegram Political Editor SAN BERNAKDINO How do you cut the ever increasing costs of education and welfare, the two programs which make up the bulk of the state budgei? "In education," says William K. Shearer, the American Independent party nominee for governor, "you could save tons of money by limiting it to academic endeavors and cutting out the peripheral welfare activities." Shearer, a big, somewhat fierce looking man with a bushy mustache, says schools could save money by not making them "entertainment centers. We don't need those expensive auditoriums so all the culture bugs can be entertained at public expense." Compensatory education programs that provide extra funds for children "who have never seen a banana or an airplane" also could lie cut, Shearer said in an interview yesterday. As for welfare, Shearer said, "There's no excuse for the fraud and subsidy of the kind of illegitimacy and indolence you find in the welfare field." His answer to the welfare problem is to take 1he children out of welfare homes and put them in foster homes RUMMAGE SALE MONDAY. OCT.
