PROTESTS ON PAVING CHEK NITES? SECTIONS PROJECT Hostile Property-Owners File Challenge to Petitions of Other Residents CITY GETS GRADER BIDS) Asphalting Proposal Put Off to Wednesday, Machinery’ Choice One Week Street paving plans in the north- western section of the city were thrown into confusion at Monday eve- ning’s session of the city commission by the filing of signed protests from property-owners who object to the expense of the improvement at this time. The upshot was to halt all action on the project by the com- mission, which decided to consider the paving issue at 1:30 Wednesday afternoon. The protests of these objecting property-owners were filed by E. L. Faunce. Some of the petitioners for the paving were present to defend their project, led by Harry P. God- dard, who is a resident of a particu- Jarly muddy block on Mandan street, that above Avenue D. The matter was largely discussed informally. It was brought out that the paving will cost about $3,600 to the block. Some of the property- owners are figuring on $4,009. The protesting owners add to this interest charges over 20 years and base their protest on this cost. Open Grader Bids The commission had before it the opening of bids to furnish the city a new grader. A series of bids on six types were received, but decision was put off until next Monday night. The J. D. Adams Road Machinery cae offered graders from $911 to The Elkens Tractor and Equipment company, Minot, offered machines for $707 and $808.50, with additions to these prices running as high as $220 for scarifier and $495 for back sloper, with additional cost for increased feet in blade. The Russell type of grader was of- fered for $508.50, with $112 for back Sloper, $150 for scarifier, $16 for 10- foot blade and $17 for 12-foot. From the Lewis Tractor and Ma- chinery company the bids ranged from $775 to $860, $905 and $1,220, with $75 added for scarifier and $14 and $18 for increased size of blade. The Austin We Road Machin- ery company made offers of $825, $890, $1,070, $1,145, $1,200, $1,290, $1,370, $1,520, $1,630, and $1,680, in one set of bids, with $75 extra for Timken roller bearings. Another set of bids ranged from $570 to $705, $808, $915, $1,050, to $1,400. These carried additional prices of $290, $295 and $375 for scarifiers. For the old grader the city was offered an allowance of $100. Plumber License to Go Up The Northwestern Sheet and Iron j 2 ‘Works offered prices of $580, $1,200 and $1,300 with an allowance of $100 for the old grader and an increase of price of $225 for scarifier. The proposal of the plumbers that | ; the city increase their license fee to $25 a year was reported legal by City Attorney C. L. Young. The opinion of the commission was that, as they wanted the increase, there was no reason for withholding it, and an ordinance was ordered drawn increas- ing the fee from $5 to $25.

Announcement the “action has been disposed of without prejudice to the contentions of the respective parties” was made in a statement signed by attorneys for both sides. The formal announcement made no mention of a financial consideration. Sir Joseph’s attorneys refused to dis- cuss the subject, but S.

The radio business has passed through its hectic period of inexperienced manufacture. Companies which, through lack of knowl- er financing, flooded the country with poorly made sets, have finally succumbed to the hollow knock of the auctioneer’s hammer. Cut-throat competition on the part of those seeking no permanence in the industry, but seeking only the public’s dollars for a quick clean-up, is also fading out of the picture. All new industries (and radio rs old) have passed through these stages. The radio industry could not hope to come through unscathed. it all, Majestic has loomed like a guiding star. It has offered a permanent and fixed value to the eye of the beholder, seeking a product which would not be use- less and out of date within a few months, but which promised continuous pleasure and unceasing satisfaction. The first Majestics made are playing today, bringing happiness and satisfaction to their own- ers. Only the legendary 1-10 of 1% of Majestic owners are willing to part with their sets atany price, regardless of the price they paid for the model they chose. Majestic, with the larg- est production in the in- dustry, has always offered the publicthe largest value in the industry, because of Majestic Prices will be Advanced BE is tremendous buying power, tremendous pro- duction and tremendous engineering knowl- edge. Majestic will continue to exert the same type of leadership. But the time has come to prices for quality sets must be advanced. In the past, raw material manufacturers took tremendous losses from fly-by-night radio manufacturers. They, like the public, are more wary now. Cut-throat competition and sloppy selling practices, resulting in heavy losses, are at an end. Majestic will never put the highest quality merchandise and while prices must be slightly increased, Majestic will still offer the public the greatest value in the world from the standpoint of both price and quality. Majestic sets never have and NEVER WILL BE. Beware of radio sets where $100 can be knocked off the price at the wink of an eyelash. This frank advertisement is to urge you to buy your Majestic NOW. The present Ma- jestic sets are the finest radios that science and expert manufactur. ing knowledge have ever produced. You will make no mistake in buying a Majestic immediately. You will be proud of it for years to come. We can honestly urge you, therefore, to buy your Majestic today. We sin- cerely believe it is the greatest buy that the radio industry has ever offered or ever will offer.
