Prior to that tint oomo eitlaMa
expressed opposition to the iasoe o# various
grounds, and the eity tdnja

of the bonds at the present tUne
I would result In a considerable saving
I on interest payment#, since it in
estimated the bends cad be issne'd at
' a rate not exceeding^ two and ono|
fourth cver^ent. Hie board points out
that present bonds of the city carry '
interest around six percent.
Mayor J. H. Thomson, in a detailed
I statement, said the city did not antie
ipate getting into the full improve[
ments pfogram until materials get
! more available and he estimated that
I the issuance of tlTe^WWis would not
require a tax increase, except for the
I years 1040-50 and 1950-51. with the
| anticipated Increase 10 cents per $100
vHqetlon. This estimate he based oa
present fax valuations, expected to
