Mayor Ostendorf told the council that he Is asking the chamber of commerce to pre pare a brief setting form tne community's position with re spect to potentially surplus wur property here, such as the air port and housing projects. Houslnp Projects The planning commission filed with the council a recommenda tion that whan the housing projects are no longer needed, they be offered for prior sale to the city or county and the build ings be torn down.

The fuel that ono flro caused a small loss, he suld, is of no conso quenco, and tho insurance com pany ought to bo big enough to foot this little bill. The council agreed, and or dered a letter sunt to the corn puny expressing thut thought. The council told Joo Gllck man that It would act next wock on his application for permis sion to opornto a private club in the former CPO club rooms on Klumuth avenue. It also promised to do some thing next week about the urn bulunco which the Klks lodge has offered to the city or coun ty. Councllmen engaged in a long and confused discussion of tho sawugo project proposed for t h e military bousing projects which also would serve a part of tho city nearby. The city vot ers authorized local expendi tures for this Job, which would bo mainly financed by the fed oral govornment. Tho extent to which the city could commit it self to aid In tho financing wus the subject discussed. When the long talk got nowhere, the mnt tcr was laid on the table. Coun cilman Newton opined the city probably won't get the sewer, anyhow. Several properly holders were told by tho council to cut down poplur trees which allegedly are interfering with operation of the city sowago system. The council accepted plana to move a house from the Veterans Memorial park area near Ewnu na lake to the site of the city dog pound, to be used as a home for the poundkeepcr.

"Hew 5eon Con I Get My New Ford?" Wa , sincerely believe the answer is: "Sooner than you think!" And here's why Ford, first with assembly line production of postwar cars, first to stock dealers for a nationwide display, is first in quantity production 1,000 units a day reached last week . . . 2,000 a day in prospect within 30 days. I . "How Much Wilt My New Ford Cost?" We think the answer to this is, found in Ford's unvarying policy through more than 40 years of operation: always the highest quality at the lowest possible cost.
