"Inside Story Told '

The -Inside story" ef the rer-

statement by Nice to Alcala Zam

proclaimed "president of the re
public" on Saturday. From his
rison cell he told how the plot

to have flowered In a general

"We've built good bridges and
-no repairs are needed on them;
the corners on streets have been
rounded in needed places; we
have completed the repair of the
major street replacement jobs and
I don't feel we need so much
money In 1931 for this work,"
Paulus said.
I know there's the argument I
'that we should provide more work
but I do not believe we should
provide work which does aot ne
cessarily need to be done. After
all 1932. 133 and all years will
fcrlng demand for. as much work
as possible."
There Is some talk this week
that - the atreet repair fund was
being used as aMslush fund, its
revenues being dlrerted to other
outlet than those of street, cul
vert or-bridge repair as provided
Tor -under the charter. Investiga
tion of tb recorder's records
shows that the only sums diverted
vers S1000 appropriated at a re
lief to the overloaded and ssder
financed incinerator operated by
the city.

Considerable support for the

that -the increase will pass.
One of -the trenchant reasons
Tor the -increase lies la the fact
that the county court is virtually
committed to such a change In its

take the lead. If both levying
