SUPPORT REFUNDING l ‘ l-AN
C ity councilm en breathed easier th is week a f t e r re
ceiving the $20,000 bond refund agreement fro m the W ood
men of the W’o rid lodge. They now believe the c ity can
once m ore become masters of its own finances and continue
to refund bonds at substantial savings to the taxpayers.
Faced w ith $51,500 in bonds becom ing delinquent by-
Novem ber 1, 1036, the fin a n c ia l situ a tio n in S pringfield was
fast com ing to the c ritic a l stage The c ity had to have more
tim e in order to raise the money due and w hich there uad
been no s in k in g fund provided fo r in previous years. There
was no th in g le ft to do but sit dow n w ith the bond holders
and appeal fo r fu rth e r extension on paym ents and also fo r
a reduction in the interest rates w hich have been eating
up budgets fo r m any years.
The agreem ent w ith the W oodmen lodge not only gives
the needed relief, but it also paves the way fo r fu rth e r re
fu n d in g The paving o f the $11.500 default and the a r
rangem ents fo r re fu n d in g o f the .........
'VlXMlmen issue
com pletes the fir s t tw o steps in the c ity ’s program . The
th ird step w ill be the re funding o f the $20.000 due Novem
ber 1, 1936. A nnouncem ent on th is la tte r issue has been
promised s h o rtly as most o f the issue is already under
option.
S u ffic ie n t has been done to straighten up the fin a n cia l
a ffa irs o f the c ity w hich have been d riftin g fro m bad to
worse fo r a num ber of years to dem onstrate th a t the new
c ltv governm ent has a fin a n c ia l program and th a t it is
w o rk in g
Com m on sense should dictate to all taxpayers
th a t they should back the c ity council up in its e ffo rts to
lig h te n the staggering interest loads and also stave o ff
foreclosures on defaulted bonds. F inancial disaster has now
been averted, but there is considerable to do before all the
$113 500 bonds are refinanced and the $25,000 in delinquent
w a rra n ts are taken care o f The city ’s program now has
reached a place where it means dollars and cents in the
taxpayers’ pockets to have harm ony. B e tte r bids are going
to be received fro m a c ity w hich is try in g to do the rig h t
th in g in m eeting its obligations, than one where in te rn a l
dissention prevents in te llig e n t action. The c ity s interest is
param ount to any »dividual's. Let s look tow ard the com
