To regulato tho buying an auditing
system as recommended by Proffei

bureau, will be installed.
City employes, under present con
ditions, do not repair tools, such as
welding broken picks, splicing ropes,
etc., but Instead buy new tools, whon

plies. Tho council Is proceeding on tho
tlieorf ot ono iron in tho tiro at a
time, and will adjust conditions con
cerning finances beforo taking up the
matter ot now appointments.
