The reason money from the fund can be diverted into different departments of the city, explained Aurand, is that Decatur is a fifth class city. Money from the fund can be made available without appropriation as in the general fund. Money for the ~ installation of a traffic light at Thirteenth street and Monroe, and the light to b'e installed a Fifth fnd Monroe will probably come [out of t[he fund; predicted Ajirand, ivrther acting, he said, to keep the tax rate down and still provide the city with a necessary safety measure tha popular opinion . and the city council have worked for.
