e DISCUSS TWO SITES ~ FOR PUBLICDOMPS - Special Council Committee Seeks to End Nuisance Two advantageous sites for dump- -.ing grounds were discussed at a meeting last night of the special ~committee of the common council appointed to consider the advisabil- ity of purchasing land for the pur- surrounding real estate and he felt it was the Jduty of some agency of the municipal government to act, Councilman Sablotsky mention=4 the possibility of filling in the arca behind the abattoir and leveling it off eventually for use as an aviation field. The point was also made that dumping grounds properly supcr vised could be converted into usable building sites, the nuisance feature of their mantenance always arising out of inadequate supervision. Offiers Newington Avenue Site Commissioner Rattistoni said his property on the south side of N-w ington avenue has about 900 feet frontage on the street and a depth of about 1,000 feet. The average nll desired is about seven feet over eight pose and after a discussion of the situation resulting in the appoint- _ment of the committee, it was de-| “cided to make a tour of inspection | Sunday, leaving City hall at 10 =v'clock in the forenoon. | ® Lr.

This lo- Sation, with Mr. Battistoni's pro- aperty, came in for the greatest “mount of consideration, und the TYeehng of those present was that the Zity's problem would be successtully anet for several years if these sites “were utilized. ~ Rengtson on Glen Street Dump 2 Mr. Bengtson said he has been drying for years to have the Glen wtreel nuisance abated and Sanitary nspector John A.

Your present car has only one fundamental basis of value. That is, what the dealer who accepts it can get for it in the used car market. It has seemingly different values because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you s new car. The largest allowance offered is not necessarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is; sometimes it is not. An excessive allowance may mean that the new car offered you has been excessively priced. First consider the merits of each new car in com- parison with its price, including all delivery and finance charges. Then weigh the different allowances offered on your present car. A trade-in transaction is a purchase, not a sale. Its real measure is whether you get full new car value for your present car, plus the balance thatyou payin cash.
