George J. Marott, Indianapolis shoe store and hotel owner, today asked Mayor Boetcher to “give us a clean sewerage system and a clean

waterway and forget a downtown coliseum at this time.” In a letter to the Mayor, Marott termed the present system
“deficient” and suggested that the
State Fair Grounds coliseum - be heated as a substitute for a new municipal building. He suggested that Fall Creek be cleared and made fit for boating
through the use of Government
funds. Urges Creek Use
The text of Mr. Maroft's letter follows: “I notice in the newspapers, you - recognize the inefTiciency of the sewer system and it is your purpose to give prompt attention to this very important service to the health of the people and the welfare of our-good city. “It is a shame that our Fall Creek waterway is contaminated by com-
_ bination sewage that often, particu-
larly in the summer, has an unbearable stench along the waterway, which makes plain the necessity of clearing this Creek from such a nuisance and give us a waterway that would be a credit to the city and a pleasure for boating. I believe more than a million dollars is spent every summer by our citizens vacationing at lakes and other waterways when they might enjoy the waterway of Fall Creek with White River. r “Our Government has been most liberal in relieving such conditions in other cities at much Governnient expense, and what is more valuable to Indianapolis than to accept the
+ Government's assistance on this
most deficient sewage system?” : Puts Sewers First
“I believe comparatively all thinking citizens of Indianapolis but a few would say, ‘Give us a clean sewage system and a clean waterway and forget a downtown coliseum with a hotel at this time.” If we must have a coliseum, why not the State Fair Grounds coliseum, fitted with a heating system with added seating capacity in the bowl of the coliseum,’ I feel certain it would be ample for any needs. A great ad--vantage in the location is the fact that the railroad service is directly to the place and no coliseum should be built without a track connection for delivery of utilities and other things "important in promoting commercial enterprise’ ‘as well as politics. Taxpayers know they are burdened, hence it is time to forget unnecessary expenditures.
“I wish to congratulate you on :
your prompt attention as Mayor to the consideration of this important situation, and wishing you every success and support.”

An earthquake in the Philippines was described by High Commissioner Paul V. McNutt in a letter to his parents, Judge and Mrs. J. C. McNutt, Martinsville.
