The present City Commercial High
School Building in South Pryor street
will be purchased Saturday by the
county commission at a cost of 3150.-;
000 and will be converted into & home
for the county High school, it was’
regarded as certain Thursday by!
commissioners. '
This will mean that the Commer
cial High will have to seek a new
home. ‘
The failure of the city to renew|
its lease on the building, following
an increase in rental, it was said, is
responsible for the offer of the
property to the county. The* offer
was made by the Kiser Realty Com
pany.
FINAL ACTION DEFERRED. i
The proposition was; before the|
commission at its regular session l
Wednesday, but final actign was de-|
ferred to Saturday on objection
raised by Commissioner C. R. Turner, |
who insisted that the county is not
financially able to take over the
property at this time. |
“We are now facing such a time as
‘we have never seen before in the
matter of real estate values—they are
higher than ever before—and within
the next two to five years this build
}ing may not be worth nearly so much
as it is today,” said Mr. Turner. |
. “The county also {s faeing an in
‘dobtednesx of nearly $1,000.000, with
other projects in view, and I don’t see
’hnw we'can make this purchase.”
~ He asked that the commissioners
‘take more time to think over the
‘matter. and a final vote was then
postponed until the special session
Saturday afternoon. I
PAY RAISE MOVE WINS. !
A spiritel fight developed at the
‘\Vednosda‘v session over a proposi
tion that the commission ask the
Legislature to amend the law creat
in the Municipal Court, so as to give
the county the right to raise salaries
of Municipal Court emnloyees not to
exceed 25 per cent, No opposition
was @xpressed to a raise for the
employees, but some of the commis
sioners said they saw no need of tak
ing action at this time, when the
Legislatare does not meet until next
'summer. Chief Judge E. D. Thomas
“sxp‘.ninod that he feared some of the
employees would quit unless they
‘were given hope of a raise soon. The
resolution, favoring the amendment,
;flna.lly was passed by a vote of three
to two, Chairman Poole, and Com
missioners Ethridge and Turner vot
ing for it, and Commissioner Oscar
Mil's and Dr. W. L. Gilbert against.
. The commission also voted an in-!
crease of $25 per month to the sal-|
aries of Louis P. Marquardt, Plennie
Miner and James Garrison, ass!ct-!
ants in the office of Solicitor John
'A. Boykin. This action was taken on
request of the solicitor. :
