This would necessitate our waiting until they were through, or the gov ernment would take part of our appropriation for the purchase of new equipment. The Port3 have taken up the matter with the War Depart ment for going ahead at once with the construction of th South Jetty at a cost of approx imately $340,000. This Jetty is the first unit to be taken up ac cording to the plans of the en gineers, and its competition wil' give us' considerable more water. Should the War Department aci favorably on the proposition, i is the intention of the Ports tc turn this money over to then and let them proceed with th work. Should they not act fav orably, the Ports will ask per mission to proceed with the work under the supervision o a government engineer. o NOTICE BIDS WANTED Notice Is hereby given tha the Board of Directors of Schoo Dist.
