SUGGESTION OF TERMINAL BACKED (Continued from page 1) 5 per cent to sell at par, leaving the city a margin of 24 per cent, which if prope-.lv Invested would retire the principal ol the issue at maturity. Maintenance of the plant would be a charge against the operators and would be under the city's super vision. So far the offer of the company is but tentative, but In it Mayor Livesley and others who have been informed of Its general terms see encouraging possibilities. On the strength ot this favorable reception of the Idea the navigation company is working out the details of the scheme, Including rough plans for a plant together with more detail ed specifications as to financing and operating arrangements, and wiui these In hand Mayor Llvefley pro poses to lay them before a repre sentative unofficial committee of businessmen, bankers and others for studied analysis and recom mendations. If the proposal stands uch scrut iny without revealing serious de fects which might unduly obligate the city It will be laid before the! council formally with a request for action to submit the required bond proposal to the people at the earli est practicable date. Unless held over until next May It would be necessary to call a special election. There are In connection with tne company's proposal several prob lems to be worked out, none of which, however, are regarded as be ing serious obstacles. The city al ready owns an adequate and well located parcel of land on the river front and immediately adjacent to Front street and the railroad spurs there, which eliminates the problem of a site. The company's estimate that $100,000 would be the approximate cost of the plant remains to be ver ified. Until a tentative survey of the freight situation here had been made, Including a census of those shippers and freight handlers who would cooperate in the use of such a terminal, the required size of the building. Its arrangement and the needed equipment could not be ac curately forecast. There are also the matters of Just what arrangements art to be made for leasing and operating that must be worked out. If the city is to build the terminal there is the legal requirement to be met that Its use must be open to til who desire to utilize It on equal terras and without preference. Aside from the tentative esti mates made by the navigation com pany officials the city has no means of knowing whether such plant can be built for $100,000. whether a smaller investment would not be ample at this time It pro vision were made for expansion as required. It is not known what type of construction the company fig ures on, but those who have been approached on the plan here have been unanimously of the opinion that the plant should be of a per manent type and as modern as is po&ible to make It, The problem of protecting the city under the financial arrange ment Is another to be worked out. although the company's offer In cluoes the tender of a bond to cover its lease. These are the principal problems that Mayor Livesly will submit to the public for determination when the company has presented its per- i-v-d plan. dllauisotrum?'
