Necessity Seen "This Is a matter that should be considered carefully and an expres sion of public opinion should be pro cured," said Mayor Porter. "Some of tha streets are in bad condition and need repairs If they are to be saved at all. On the other hand It is a large undertaking." "There Is no question about the necessity," Larry Schade, -hairman of the streets and roads committee said. He felt that the matter should be submitted to the people for their views.
