Declines

On
recommendation
of
the
Board
of

the
city
council
de-
elded
last
night
to
notify
the
Bio-
.
logical
Board
of

that
the
city
Is
unable
at
the

time
to
,
undertake
the
expenditure
of
con-
strucUng
a

to
the
new
station
that
is
now
under
construction.
In
a
letter
two
weeks
ago,
the
board
asked
the
council
to
build
such
a
walk.
Speaking
of
the
recommendation,
Aid.
Brown,
chairman
of
the
Board
of
Works,
stated
that
the
committee
had
taken
the
view
that,;
in
view
of
the
fact
that
the
city
was
hard
put
to
It
to
make
repair
to(
streets
that
needed
them
and
to
provide
streets
that-
were
almost
essential,
the
Dominion
government
was
better
able
to
build
the
road
to
Its
own
building
than
was
the
city.
Aid.
Orme
thought
It
would
hardly
be
fair,
under
the.
circumstances,
for
the
city
to
spend
this
money.
Aid,
Pullen
thought
that
no
one
would
be
hurt
particularly
If
the
voad
were
not
built.
