8AVIS IN STATEMENT EXPLAINS BRIDGE CASE

In response to the statement of Councilman Waltermann at the council meeting last night that South Fifth 1 street property owners were complaining because practically the entire as- .' pessment for the condemnation of a Rite for the South G street bridge was to be levied against them. President Bavla of the board submitted the fol- ' lowing explanation of the board's ac- ; tion: Bavds Issues Statement. When we first instituted proceed- ! lngs In condemnation to acquire the i ground to serve as the site for the I South O street bridge, it was our in- ' tention to include the widening of ! South G street from 5th to 8th street, I in the same resolution and make the f total damages a general charge for 1 benefits against all the properties on i 6th. 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th streets north ! and south from Main to South I street. - . . 1 - A 1 A 1

After looking over me territory u occurred to us that some difficulties might be encountered in determining to the satisfaction of the affected

property owners just what would be a fair value for the land and properties taken, difficulties that might have to he ironed 'out in the Circuit Court, all of which would mean a delay in the commencement of construction of bridge. In view of these possibilities we decided to separate the proceedings and condemn the land on the east and wett banks of the river, constituting the site for the bridge, and assess the benefits against the properties on South Fifth street only, and exempt thein from any and all assessments incidental to the widening of South "0" street, east. Gives Boarfds Estimate. The board's estimate, even if it was acceptable, for the widening of G btreet will be 6 or 7 times greater than the bridge site, and the South Fifth street peopte would find that no properties assessed for the widening of G street will pay less than are now being assessed against the Fifth street properties. We apportioned the benefits as fairly as we thought it was possible to do,

grading the amounts proportionate to the benefits, to-wit: Front Territory. Percent. Foot. Main to South A St... 2 3c South A to B St 5 9Hc South B to C St 8 14c South D to E St 16 25c South E to H St 40 30c South H to I St 21 25c The maximum charge is 30c a front foot or $12.00 for a 40 ft. lot. Every property on South Fifth street would be benefited by the bridge and the impression of the board was, that the people on Fifth street, was particularly anxious to have it started. It seems however from the remonstances that are being made, that they don't want the bridge at all. NAME TRUSTEES OF NEW BOARD

There is no one now in the office who is acquainted with its business. The old assistant, E. Bode, joined the army the same day that Murdock disappeared and the other assistant is new at the business. This makes the checking up tedious and slow. Murdock did not tell anyone he was going away. The last seen of him was Thursday evening when he was going toward the interurban station with a suit case. He did not notify the home office about his intention of leaving. Mrs. Murdock is somewhere in Ohio and Murdock had told some of his friends that she was not feeling well and that he was intending to visit her.

WASHINGTON, July 4. The senate today celebrated Independence day by smoothing the way for legislation destined to restore the United States to its proper place among the great military and naval powers of the world. The naval and military affairs committee put the finishing touches on two of the biggest of the preparedness measures the $328,000,000 army appropriation bill and the $500,000,000 naval program. Both of these measures are scheduled for immediate consideration. The army appropriation bill, carry

ing i4t,000,000 more than provided by the house, will be reported to the senate tomorrow by Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the military affairs committee. On account of the

acuteness of the Mexican situation, indications are that the measure will be passed by the senate in recordbreaking time. Difficulty in keeping the full $328,000,000 appropriation In the bill will be encountered, however, when the bill goes to the conference.

Yes, Richmond is patriotic. When the younger generation of the male citizenry swipe the American flags used to mark the foul lines at the city ball park, and when the younger generation of the opposite sex incorporate in their make-up American flags instead of the usually worn red or vari-ctolored ribbons, it must

be admitted the younger folks, too, have some sense of patriotism. Perhaps you haven't noticed the latest wrinkle in the make-up of Miss Richmond. American flags used as hair ribbons, the Stars and Stripes as middy ribbons, the Union Jack as a pocket kerchief of the militant, are things to be looked for when you are down town today.
