faxpayer Petition Asks Completely
City-Owned Airport; Improvements
A petition signed by some 100 local taxpayers, including a ma-
jority of business and professional men and endorsed by represen-
tatives of the major oil companies which are the life blood of the
city, asking a tax bond election for improvement and city purchase
of the jointly owned Seminole airpon will be presented to the City
Commission in next Tuesday night's regular session.
Under the present set up, the city owns the land and the airport
buildings were constructed and are owned by G. L. S.anfield who
operates the field and the government approved flying school there.

city, which now derives no
source of income from the air-
port, could profit by purchasing
the present buildings and mak-
ing it an entirely municipal air-
port.
He has agreed, he said, to ac-
cept the city's appraisal price for
the buildings, a figure consider-
ably below the bottom estimate
for reconstruction of the struc-
tures under current costs for con
struction and materials.
Fire Proof Buildings
Buildings include an all-steel
50 by 80 foot hangar which ac-
commodates 10 planes, a fire
proof shop 50 by 26 feet with
concrete walls and floors, and the
combination classroom, office
which measures 16 by 32 feet
The airport site, purchased
several years ago by the city,
represents an investment of $5,-
000 from which the city should
be netting some returns, Stan-
field said.
The field embraces 160 acres,
puttinn the airport in a class
with those of many larger cities.
Improvements asked in the peti-
tion include chiefly surface treat-
ment of the runways with oil
pending black topping.
Value of the buildings and the
field have not deteriorated since
construction was completed last
July 1, the operator pointed out.
higher with improvement of the
runways.
The operator emphasized that
in the event an election should
not prove successful both he and
the city would stand to take a
heavy loss when the present
builfi'nfs were moved.
Biff Transportation Role
In operation for the past three
years, the airport has rapidly as-
sumed a major role in the local
transportation picture, providing
speedy ingress and egress for oil
company officials, local business
firms, professional men and in-
dividuals.
H'js role is doubly important
considerin gthe absence of rail-
road transportation facilities in
Seminole, supporters of the
movement for a completely city-
I owned flying field said.
In addition to planes available
for charter trips, increasing num-
| bers of local persons are becom
ing air-minded to the extent of
purchasing private planes and
■ the airport also accommodates
ambulance aircraft which may
i mean saving the lives of persons
! needing specialized surgical
treatment.
Concensus today was that the
! election would win approval of
j the general public and it was ex-
' pected that the city would offer
no opposition to the plan.

City Cooperating
In Battle For
Water Rights
Seminole's city government to-
day was on record pledging
support of the Municipal Water
Rights Committee of the West
Texas Chamber of Commerce In
defending Articles 7471 and 7472
and b and c or the 1931 Water
Priority Acts, giving municipali-
ty ti' st priorities on water use
and right to recover water ap-
propriated for inferior use.
The pledge, signed by Mayor
D- H. Starling, also promises op-
position to any legislation to
change the protective privileges
of Articles 7471 and 7472 and
other sections which would make
appropriations of water for other
than domestic use a fixed and
superior use.
City commissioners pledged to
make necessary contacts through
legislative representatives to as
sume support of defense of exist-
ing water rights.
A local representative to se»ve
on the water rights committee
will be appointed soon, Mayor
Starling said.
Here Monday to discuss the
fight to maintain rights with lo
cal civic leaders was Max Bent-
ley, organizational director of
the West Texas Chamber of
Commerce, Abilene.
He discussed drastic ally
| dwindling water supplies with
city representatives including H.
C- Kyle, manager, local Chamber
of Commerce, H- B. Gates, local
C. of C. director, and Dr. J. R-
Coats, city commissioner

Seminole citizens ill go to the polls Saturday, March 12, to
vote on a $150,(XX) bond issue slated to provide for the most exten-
sive water and sewer program expansion on record in the city's
history, the City Commission announced in special session Tuesday
night.
Of the total, $3(1.000 will be for waterworks revenue refunding
bonds now outstanding. The larger remainder of $114,000 is ear-
marked for extension of city water lines, laying of new waler mains
to replace old ones and installation of sewer pipe to augment the
♦ present system.
I Motion of Mayor D. H. Starling
for a resolution calling the bond
'election was carried unanimous-
1 iy-
The resolution provides for ma-
■ turity of the bonds not more than
35 years from the date of issu-
ance. The combined issue will
bear interest of three and three
fourths per cent.
Payments on interest and prin
clpal will not call for any in
crease in the local tax rate but
will be payable at approximately
$7,522 annually out of water
works net income This figure is
approximately half of the nei
income of $15,000 annually for
i the water department, according
to records of City Clerk Jack
Mc Combs
New Water Supply
Of the $114,000, slightly moiv
than $14,000 has been estimated
as the cost of a mile of 10-inch
water pipe needed to connect city
mains with the new water tank,
in southwestern Seminole; $9,000
was estimated for the cost of In-
stalling the pipe; $15,000 for a
large quantity of six-Inch water
pine needed to replace some pres
ei,' ones which are smaller ana'
not up to state standards for fire
protection.
Sewer connections needed im-
mediately to provide for perman-
ent growth of the city in a num-
ber of new residential districts
such as the one in north Semin-
ole were estimated at $1,000.
It is understood, the commis-
sion said, that waterworks in-
come will increase proportion-
ately with the expansion of the
system during the next three to
five years.
Although the $150,000 will
leave a margin of money accord-
ing to present estimates for the
expansion planned. L G. Daught-
erly, president, Seminole State
Bank, advised the commission to
issue bomfc for the higher figure
to allow for still-fluctuating costs
of material and labor
Present to complete the con-
tract for the bond issue were C.
V. Cecil and 1. B. Moss of the
Moss-Moore Investment Securi-
ties Company, Dallas.
Bonded Debt Minimum
Seminole would not be taking
any financial risk in issuing the
bonds, Moss commented, since
the city, still growing, holds a
record far below the average-
city of comparative size for- tax
and revenue bonded debt
Tax valuation of the city for
1948 was listed at $2,225,000 and
i his is expected to be increased to
