A't this point, Ilr. Clint Iloore appeared and dis-
cussed more fully his proposition to contraot with property O1IIJlers tor
the tilling in 01' the lands lying between the Canal and ocean ridge,
in an a'ttempt to reclaim said property and rid the cOllllllUllity 01' sand-

could be arranged to start on this work within a week's time he would
be glad to cooperate with his dredge, and recOIIIIIllInded that the City

the necessary permit tor dredg~ in the Canal right-ot-way. The need
ot 1Jmnedia'te aotion lIDd the cooperation ot everyone, was stressed.
I't was further reoOllllllended by lIr. Cromer that we hire some compe'ten't
