City Council ‘Approves New CAA Lease; 5100-Foot
Runway Planned.
Additional government improvements worth $230,000 at municipal airport were made possible last night by the city council’s acceptance of a lease agreement with the civil aeronautics administration. " Most of the government grant will go toward construction of a new 5100-foot runway, extension of two. others and installation of modern lighting facilities at the field. The new lease agreement will enable the CAA to continue municipal airport “improvements begun in 1841. It was necessitated when another CAA department with which the city had an identical lease agreement, had exhausted its funds.
” » ” Oppose Roller Rink Another ordinance introduced last night met vigorous opposition from four mémbers of the Baptist clergy here. The measure, held in abeyance by the council, would constitute a step toward erection of a roller skating rink within 12 feet of the Twenty-fifth Street Baptist church, 25th and Ethel sts, the clerygmen charged. The new ordinance would supersede one which forbids construction of a roller rink within 100 feet of a church or schoal and would leave responsibility for location of new rinks in the hands of the board of
Zoning appeals, without code re-
structions. Representatives of those supporting the ordinance, said construction of the 25th st. rink would “be in the interest of civil and military morale,” but opponents of the measure declared, “you can’t improve morale by contributing to delinquency.”
” 8 = Urges General Raises Edward R. Kealing, council vice president, took issue with an ordinance which would grant some 100 city sanitation workers wage increases on the grounds that other city employees should be given the same considerations. “What about raises’ for the police, firemen and other city employees?” asked Mr. Kealing. “Won't this ordinance stir up trouble?” Harmon Campbell, works board president, replied that salary boosts for sanitation workers were found to be imperative after the board had compared their pay scale with those of other city utility employees. The measure would appropriate $17,472 for the pay increases. !
‘Backs Pound Changes .
Mrs. John Sloan Kittle, a director of Animal Welfare League, Inc. voiced support of two ordinances designed to better the city dog pound. One would establish a downtown municipal pet shop under | pr, sponsorship of the pound, and the other calls for an initial appropria-. tion of $1100 for a “dog pound emergency” fund. Adoption of the measures also would enable the city to employ a part-time veterinarian at the pound,
ta step which Mrs, Kittle termed
“urgent in order to end this cruel, inhuman disposition of dogs by carbon monoxide.” A veterinarian, she explained, would be able to discharge the derelicts in a painless manner. x
Study Pool Foe ©
An ordinance introduced by Councilman Willie B. Sullivan which would impose a $15,000 license fee on pool ticket printers was referred to the welfare committee. - Appropriation measures asking $2866 for purchase of fire department equipment, and $2950 for acquisition of a garbage grinder were submitted to the finance committee.
