meeting sponsored by the city plan

bers and the city council, held yesterday. "The plans for the already an-

Financing a Problem
The question of whether to fi-|
nance the structures through reve-
nue bonds or general obligation] bonds was raised but Dwight Peter-| investment banker, told the!
son, group that present, state laws prohibited issuance of revenue bonds! backed by returns from automobile, parking. He did indicate that he thought] revenue bonds would sell if the laws: permitted their issuance. William H. Book, executive secretary of Chamber of Commerce, proposed a finance plan whereby the program cotild be financed through issuance of general obligation bonds. Then, he said, at the next session of the general assembly a bill would be introduced setting up a parking district to which the obligation could be transferred under revenue bonds. Under this plan, he pointed out, the civil city’s bonding power would not be: “obligated for a long period. Limited Parking The four garages would be lo-
cated in four quarters of the down-|
town area and contain four levels providing space for 900 cars. Motorists would park their own cars.
The plan calls for a charge of 10]
cents an hour during daytime with a maximum™ time limit of five hours. At night the length of time motorists could park would be extended. Members of the planning commission = indicated the parking!spaces were intended for shoppers and those seeking business services and not for persons working in the downtown area.

NOTICE to all public and parochial SCHOOL CHILDREN
; | Transit fare for all children in the public and parochial > "schools this fall will be the same as the adult fare. That is—10c cash, 3 tokens for 25c, and 2c for transfers between through lines.
Because final determination of the Indianapolis transit fare question is pending in court, Indianapolis Railways has established a plan whereby refunds will be made available to school children in case the 5¢ school fare, prescribed by the Public Service Commission on July 1, is finally sustained.
Indianapolis Railways has prepared special strips of school tickets, to sell for 25¢ each, which will be good for three rides. Each strip will include a receipt which the purchaser should hold for a possible 10c refund in case the 5c school fare is finally sustained. Students are urged to hold these receipts because they may have future value.
These tickets will be sold in books of $1.00 at the bookstores in all public and parochial high schools. Grade school’ children may obtain strips of tickets in any amount they desire at the following locations:
