PAVING CASE IS UP AGAIN
Effort Will B Made to Arrive at
Decision Today.
VTith a number of important points
regarding paving still unsettled the
City Commission will hold a special
meeting; this morning: at 10 o'clock to
consider finally the proposed new pav
ing specifications prepared by Com
missioner Dleck. Inasmuch as a long
list of paving projects is being held
up pending the settlement of the spec
ifications tangle a special effort will
be made to get the question straight

adopted.
The specifications as prepared by
Mr. Dieck provide for wider competi
tion in paving without lessening the
standard, he says. Other Commission
ers have, taken exception to some of
provisions of the specifications, saying
that they should be broader so as to
open up the use of patented pavements
by all companies .by agreement be
tween the city and the holders of the
patents.
