WOULDCHANGE APPORTIONING PAVING COSTS Chamber of Commerce Starts Investigation to Find Best Plan. An extensive investigation is to be conducted by tbe Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce as to the question of apportioning the cost of resurfacing or repaving improved streets. Following the authorization of the board of directors. the department of civic affairs is sending a questionnaire to all Indianapolis business, civic and community clubs, asking for expression of opinion as to how this cost should be borne. It is explained by John It. Reynolds, general secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, that nner existing laws of the State, owners of abutting property are required to stand the entire cost of repaving streets. According to Mr. Reynolds, the extensive use of automobiles and motor trucks, requiring the comparatively frequent paving of streets, has given the problem •of repaving an entirely new aspect in recent years. The theory behind the present law Is that the property will be benefited by the improvement to an extent commensurate with the improvement itself. Ilowever, such a theory has no application to the law which now requires abutting property owners to pay for recurfaclng costs, since the property receives no increased values as a result of resurfacing and, according to Mr. Reynolds, because of the failure of the law now governing assessment cf resurfacing charges to stand on any sound economic theory, tho community which wears out the pavement and not the owners of abutting property should bear all or at least a part of the cost. FOUR METHODS ARE SUGGESTED. In the letter which is being sent to the various organisations today, it is pointed out there are four different ways of handling this problem. First, the total cost to be paid by the city; second, the property owner and the city can contribute equally; third, two-thirds of the cost can be paid by abutting property owners and on-third by the city; fourth, the total cost can be paid by abutting property owners. These four methods of apportioning this cost are the result of information secured by the chamber from 160 different cities. As soon as all information and recommendations are gathered together by’ the department of civic affairs, they will be embodied in the form of a resolution to he presented to the board of directors for approval or rejection and afterwards the information and deductions will be placed before the city government. Assistance is being rendered the Indiana Sunday School Association, of which A. B. Cornelius is president, in an effort to bring to Indianapolis in 1926 the quadrennial meeting of the International Sunday School Association following authorization at the board meeting. That the public service commission should refuse to grant increased rates to public service corporations except upon conclusive demonstration the denial of such an increase would impair the financial responsibility and constitute a threat upon the continued life of the corporation, was the expression of the board of directors of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce yesterday in a resolution adopted in reference to the petition of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company for an increase. The resolution adopted by the board of the Chamber r affirms its adherence to a previously d< dared principle that for sound economic reasons a community shoulu pay for the service rendered by a public utility corporation, but a* the same time points out during this period of rapidly fluctuating values, when it is difficult to determine what factors may effect the situation in which any particular corporation finds itself, the

public service commission should be duly hesitant in granting an increase. On the recommendation of the manufacturers’ committee of the Chamber, it was decided not to hold an Indianapolis Industrial Exposition this year because of the lack of facilities at the State fairground. It has been pointed out the State board of agriculture contemplates the erection of two large buildings close to the present Manufacturers' building. One of these is to be a duplicate of the Manufacturers’ building and the other much larger. In the opinion of the members of the manufacturers' committee of the Chamber, it would be unwise to attempt to have another industrial exposition until larger facilities have been provided. At the Industrial Exposition last year, thousands of people were turned away each day and evening while impossible Jams were inside of the building. So many applications were made at the close of the

Clark was born in the northern part of New York State April 20, 1814. His early life was spent In Potter County, Pennsylvania, where he followed the lumber industry. About twenty-seven years ago he came to this part of West Virginia. He has outlived five wives and has been the father of thirty-five children, twenty of whom are living, but they are scattered all over America, ne wears a heavy beard, is above the average height and is as erect as a man who has served a long time in the United States Army. Clark attributes his advanced age and perfect health to living a simple life, obedience to, the laws of nature and breathing pure air twenty-four hours a day. He is a great reader.
