In connection with the latter it was learned that a so- year debenture issue was being sold and that property owners who benefited from the new streets would" be taxed on a lin- ear foot basis.

Charles Wilkins. who was chairman. introduced the Coun- cillors and they were thanked by the President of the Club. Bill Agnew. In his vote of thanks Mr. Agnew expressed the feeling of every member present when he stated that the dl uasion was ex- tremely interesting and was en- joyed by all present.
