The letter signed by Drs. Char
les S. Campbell, Lewi D. Clark;
Horace D. McGee, Mayard Sniffer
and Robert F. Wulf stated:
"We cannot allow this scheme to
even approach reality without ut
tering a most vigorous protest. We
will use every means available to
us, legal and otherwise, to fight it."
The council list month had ask
ed City Manager J. L. Franzen to
call together railroad and civic of
ficials to discuss the plan. Alder
man David OUara, who served
last night as mayor in the absence

my s Mothers club, appeared in be
half of the proposal.
City Manager Franzen reported

12th street and South Commercial

change in present parking limita
tions on one hour in the former
