Show City Votes to Pay Legion for Interest in Library The City Council voted to frant the American Legion post No. 74 $4,250 as payment in lieu of a Legion room in the proposed library building. Action was taken by the council coun-cil following receipt of a letter from the Legion requesting the matter to be settled. The Legion had requested So,-000, So,-000, but $750 of this amount was deducted for the licensing of the carnival which the Legion had here two weeks ago during the Iron Bowl race meet. Papers for the sale will be drawn up, releasing the city of all obligations to the Legion. The Legion had originally sold the property on West Cedar street where the proposed library is to 1k constructed, with the understanding under-standing that the Legion would have a room in the building. |
