Sub Btltuttou ol municipal UoihIb bear ing 5 per cent intercut tor war rants bearing G per cent interest to Bluted for tue chief topic or dis cussion at the monthly meeting of the community club Wednesday evening at 6:30 o'clock, according to John V. Hunt, president. The topic in arousing considerublo in terest among Woodburn rosidenie. A former city council disregard ed the 6 per cent limitation law and lesued warrants which were taken up by local banks as secur ity. Finding that a saving of one per cent could bo effected through the proposed substitution, commit tees from the community club and the t'tiy council were appointed to act together and make recom mendations to the club. The pres ent city council Is favorable to the plan provided that it receives the endorsement ol the community club. In order to get the matter in shape to present the plan to the community club, a meeting of the two committees will bo held Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The proposed municipal bond Issue will involve approximately $t4, 000. Proponents of the chunge main tain that the money has been well spent, going chiefly for paving. As a result of the expenditure Wood burn has many paved streets of excellent material that it other wise would not P0S3O33. These streets are. owing to the city's to cation, Its chief asset to attract home owners. The saving ot one per cent on interest Is also empha sized. . Opponents to the issuance of municipal bonds argue that should the substitution be made there ie no guarantee that future city councils would not exceed their authority under the law and re peat the performance. This ap pears to be the main argument against the muufcipal bond propo sition. To meet this argument, Mr. Hunt has ovolved a plan that he will place before the jolut commit tee. He suggeslB that a group of 26 or more prominent Woodburn citizens, not necessarily- members of the community club, cntor Into contract and bind themselves o"0 their heirs for an amount suffi cient to bring injunction proceed ings against any futuro council that might desire to exceed its au thority. This pldn would act as a brake upon the council and pre vent a duplication of present con ditions and an act similar to that committed by the former council, The Woodburn Community club Is not similar to other community clubs In Hie Salem district but corresponds1' to tho chamber of commerce and commercial clubs of other cities. Meetings aro held the thiri Wednesdny evening of each mo m ii.
