the utilities committee of the Sa

City Recorder Poulsen.
The revised valuation Is $170.
000 less than the valuation made
as of August 31, 1930. Salient
reasons for the marked reduction
in value given by the engineers
lie in the fact that material and
labor costs have fallen markedly
in the 15-month interval, as well
as to the failure of the engineers j
in the new valuation to assess any
value to the incompleted filter
plant now under construction
here.
A Bum of $41,557 appraised as
the value of the incomplete filter

An observatory, military police
