CLASH LOOMS OVER PERMITS SOUGHT BY MOTOR BUS LINE Trolley Company Ready to Oppose Grant— City Council Defers Action Till Next Week— Auburn to be Link in Big Transit System— Hewitt Promises to Press Spur Proposal Novelties at j Valentine Party I When the City Council’ convened last evening it looked like a protracted meeting would be the order -of the night. However, when the Question of permits for an extensive system of motor buses was put over for one week, it did not take very long to run 'through the routine business ' which confronted Mayor Adam P. Burkhart 'and his’ felloe councilmeu. Councilman W illiam B. Haeffner moved that the subject of bus permits bo held over for one week. The motion was curried unanimously. The coun- cilmen were confronted with a peculiar situation when representatives of the Unity Bus Line arrived at the Conncil Chamber to ask for a transfer of per mit granted last year to Walter L. Snyder and F. Glenn Rexford. Of ficials of the Auburn & Syracuse Elec tric Railroad were on hand to protect their interests'. 1 As it turned out, neither party got into action in open meeting. Formal application for transfer of permit for a motor bus line through some of the principal streets of Auburn and from Auburn to Moravia and Cortland was filed with City Clerk Charles- A. ’Day ton by representatives of the Unity Bus -Line, with which George B. Wins low and Charles A. Deveraux of Syra cuse, .well -known- motor line men, are connected. ■Mr. Dayton read the application. Corporation Counsel William S. Elder informed the coirncilmen that he had advised the petitioner to present the original permission- for the inspection of Hie C{ty Council. Councilman Haeffi- nct thed moved that the matter be laid over for one week and the motion was adopted’. The application made last night was for a link in an extensive route by which Unity Bus Line officials declare they propose to link up Syracuse. Au burn, Moruvia, Ithaca and Cortland by motor bus. They pointed out before the meeting that Rochester already is the center of an extensive system of motor bus transportation. W. .T. Harvie. general manager of the Auburn & Syracuse, and William J. Lee, general passenger and freight ngent of the same railroad, were on hand to watch developments. John M. <•> <S> ,'4^° Cirls Missionary Union of'?'.

The councilmeu approved the action of City Manager John P. .Taeckel in renewing the lease of tbe present Quarters of tho City Water Depart ment for a period of fiv^: years, at a rate of $G0 per month, with tho privi lege of renewing the lease for an ad ditional five years, if the city so de sires.

Schell that the mayor appoint a committee of twoi councilmeu, to act with the mayor and officials of tho Library in determ ining th# annual appropriation by tho city to the free library. City Clerk Dayton also read to the couneilmen a letter from State Sena tor Charles J. Hewitt on the subject of the proposed spur of the P.arge Canal for Auburn. The letter from Senator Hewitt was as follows: “I am in receipt of your letter of February S, euelosing resolutions passed by .the Council of tho City of Auburn, which I assure you will have very careful consideration. \ I am also pleased to advise you that I will do auytbing that I can to further the building of a spur from Port Byron to Auburn.” The letter was received and filed. The councilmeu approved of a rec ommendation by City Engineer M. Frank Dullea that the sum of $103.18, duo Thomas IT. O’Neill, for work on the Pearce Avenue sewer, be paid. Buudy Avenue was added to tbe. streets designated fpr coastin: <$> <S> <J> <s><3><s><8><s><j><5><s> RECORD CLEAN Name Appeared on War \Depart ment’s List of Alleged Draft De serters When He Was Already in Service -t hours during which the avenue may be used for that purpose were restrict ed to 2 to 5 aud 7 to 10 p. m , Sun days excepted.

In building a home, you arc building for the future, and the life of your home depends to a large extent upon w\iat kind of hardware and other materials you put into it. The use of cheap materials will sooner or later be the cause of heavy repair bills, so that the building will cost just as much if not more t an good materi als would have cost, Builcl well and you’ll have n o ‘ regrets - buy building needs here and you’ll be sure of getting the best at reasonable prices. Here are a number of items which arc worthy of your judgment. p u i r a Russwin Distinctive Hardware GRAN1 AVE. PROBABLY WILL BE ONE STREET PAVED THIS SEASON Auburn's paving program for n'ext spring and summer is not likely to be as extensive as during tho last season, if tho City Council adopts the same view of the matter as is held by City Manager John P. .Taeckel. Manager .Taeckel is of the opinion that the largo amount of 'street work done by the City of Auburn 'in‘‘recent years and the present tendency toward economy in mulcipal expenditures will justify tho city ia following a more conservative policy in regard to further paving. Whether or not the couneilmen are in agreement with this view point will appear within a week or two, when the paving program will be formally presented for their ap proval. However, there are some streets which urgently need attention, in the opinion of Manager Jaeckel. Grant Avenue is a street whteh Manager .Taeckel believes must have attention this summer, if Auburn is continue a center for motor tourists, thousands of whom use tbe Grant Avenue route into •the city every season. With City Manager Jaeckel .and City Engineer M. Frank Dullea agreed as to the im portance of Grant Avenue as a route for motor vehicles, it is likely that this street will be tbe scene of work early in tho season. Engineer .Dullea has sent to Man ager Jaeckel a communication urging that an early start be made on street work this year. Tbe work got tinder wuy promptly last year, with the re sult that a record breaking season was recorded. In addltlou to Grant Ave nue, Hamilton Avenue aud South Street have a strong backing for pav ing or resurfacing th.s ySar. Federal Tax on Works of Art Cut, Several Other Modifications Listed and eommun.cation were sent out to i clear up a misunderstanding regarding j Newport’s war record, his name having , appeared on tho War Department’s list of alleged draft deserters. Tho communication regarding New port’s service in the United Status Army follows: , “William Newport, Order No. 1070, Local Board for the City of Auburu, New York. Tho War Department states that the draft records show that this registrant was directed to re-1 port to the adjutant general of the State of New York for military duty not later than June 15, 101S, and that because he failed to so report, he was subsequently certified to the adjutant general of the army as a deserter ; that tiie records of those who served during llie World War show that he enlisted in the United States Army on October 22, 10.17, and was discharged on Au- i gust 10, 1019. The War Department further states that .this man’s name appeared upon tho published list of alleged draft deserters as the result of the final report of the draft officials showing him to be a deserter and that there is no record of his having noti fied ills Local Board of his entrance Into military service as was required by the draft regulations; that the rea son why his service was not discov ered in tbe check of the list of alleged draft deserters against the records of the army is because he enlisted at Newport News, Yirg u!a, giving bis name as William M. Newport, whereas his name is borne on the draft records as W illiam Newport. •Ti.

With the repeal by the Revenue Act of 1921 of the so-called \luxury tax” on articles of men’s and women's ap parel, aud other changes in tax legis-1 lation the Bureau of Internal Revenue I lias issued new regulations (47 and -JS t .relating respectively to the excise tax j on sales by the manufacturer of cer- . tain articles— automobiles and acces sories, cameras, candy, firearms, cigar and cigarette holders, liveries, hunt- j ing garments, carpets, rugs, trunks, etc.—and the excise tax on works of art and jewelry. According to collectors of Internal revenue tiie principal changes in the latter taxes are that the tax on works of art Is reduced from 10 to 5 per ce!it. and that the tax on jewelry and similar articles, which remains at 5 per cent., no longer Includes gold or silver ornamented glasses and spec tacles.
