It would lev5y a heavy assessment upon

giving that district any improvement
The- proceeds from ' the' assessment,
amounting to about $28,000, would go
exclusively to the Improvement of Ter
- race Road, where there, are about 100
, lot -ownera vaU well-to-do people ' and
"hie, to .'pay for their" '; own ; paving.
Qreenway district residents say they
would ' weldome a district Improvement.

to the, .extent of the proposed district.
On the committee are Messrs. Hyskell,
