A report comparing construc- tion expenditures in the Lake Vista area with those in the rest of the ciily has beea de scribed as "a distortion" and "incomplete" by Lake Vista Ratepayers Association Presi- dent John DeHart. -- "Council is looking at the Lake Vista world through color- ed glasses," complains Mr. De- Hart. "They give us figures for the last two years, but what happened between 1956 and 1962? "The dollars spent in the last two years and those to be spent this year should have been spent years ago," he says. APPROVED BY COUNCIL The report, brought in by the Public Works committee and ap- proved by council, gives detail- ed dollar totals for construction expenditures in the Lake Vista area during 1962, 1963 and pro- posed works for this year. According to the report, im- provements in the Lake Vista a represent 11.94 percent of 1962 city budget and 11.21 1 4 tl t In 1962, $153,429 was spent for'e figures in claim that, in population, the Lake Vista area represents only What boundaries did : percent of last year's budget./in the study?

Provided two- thirds of homeowners have sign- ed a petition, sections of these streets will be considered in 1965: Geneva (1), Jasper (2), Phillip Murray (3), Wecker drive (4), Sharbot (5) and Ox- ford (9 and 10), Numbers are priority ratings. | The balance of the petitions,| says the report, will go on a second list for consideration when "action on the streest on the first list has been taken'. Streets on this list will be moved to the first list if enough signatures are received to re- present two-thirds of property owners.

"There are eight| million people living in a 45- square-mile ¢,* a," Mr. Templin explained, "and there is an automobile for each 1.6 persons, the highest concentration of autos in the world," The audience heard that the smog was caused by a concen-| tration of nitric oxides and hy- drocarbons, the latter given off by automobiles. Mr. Templin used slides and films to demon- strate techniques used in GM re- search laboratories in the search for an engine which would reduce the hydrocarbon output without limiting perform- ance. Mr. Templin emphasized that the smog problem, from which Los Angeles suffered, was unique. "California authorities have asked us to reduce the hydrocarbon output by 80 per cent," he stated, "and we are trying to do so although it can- not be guaranteed."
