By RICHARD LEWIS

For the second time in his administration, Mayor Sullivan has issued

+ an official order prohibiting the use| -

of city-owned automobiles after working hours. The Mayor’s order, sent to all department heads yesterday, forbids use of municipal| vehicles for private purposes in| general and for election purposes in particular. The Mayor ‘issued a similar order early in his administration. It was obeyed with. a few exceptions which multiplied until a second order became necessary. - In the order, the Mayor said he hoped hat City Hall workers who could do so legally would give “unstinted aid” to precinct and ward leaders. “But, ” he admonished, “let us not lay | ourselves open to the charge of using the taxpayers’>money for election purposes.”- :

Worried About Election

Caught up in the whirl of ward and precinct meetings, city officials and employees: are having a hard time ‘concentrating on anything else but the election. The Gallup poll has comforted them somewhat, but the - Democrats are worried about the county and state elections. If: Republicans win in Marion County, Democratic chieftains predict, dire rifts are inevitable in the peaceful relations between the Courthouse and the City Hall. Even Mayor Sullivan is not immune from the election fever. And over at the Hall, they've got the fever bad.

Sells $125,000 Bonds

In normal pursuits, the city has gold. a $125,000 bond issue for fire department renovation and other improvements at an interest rate of 1% per cent with a premium of + $1709. The issue, which runs for 20 years, was purchased by the Fletcher Trust Co. high bidder among 10 competitors. City Controller wi E. Deery

was highly pleased th the sale. The . city is now selling bonds, he said, in-an extremely favorable period of “cheap money.” The period seems to be continuing indefinitely as far as municipal issues are concerned. ; . The $125,000 will finance construction of a new fire station at the northeast corner of Prospect St. and Madison Ave. It will be a big, streamlined station housing three LS companies. The money Will also provide for the reconstruction and relocation of the city’s ancient| fire drill tower, located at the northwest corner of 7 South and New Jersey Sts. The new tower will be = 1445 W. Michigan St. In addition, twa. \aerial trucks to enable firemen to reach the city’s highest buildings (with ease and a road patrol for the street commission will be purchased out of the bond issue.

FLYNN SAYS G. 0. P. SPENDING 10 MILLION

NEW YORK, Oct. 30 (U. P.).—National Democratic - Chairman Edward J. Flynn charged today that the Republicans were spending in the aggregate between $10,000,000 and $15,000,000 onl the campaign. He said that corporations and individuals were swelling the G. O. P. funds far beyond the $3,000,000 limit of the Hatch act but expressed the belief that the expenditures were “futile.”

. “Franklin D. Roosevelt will be

elected next Tuesday,” he said. “His re-election would have been just as certain even though they had spent twice the number of millions dis.bursed by the Republican national committee, the Republican state committee and the hundreds of

fanaiful groups that assumed patri-|

otic names as convenient aliases to spread the money about.”
