<br />Councilman Hawn explained that there had been provision made in the 1943-1944
<br />budget for two new police cars to be used by traffic officers and that he thought
<br />20 bids should be advertised for at this time and if possible these two cars should

<br />:~i new car in the next year for the. Police M~tron. A motion was made, seconded. and

<br />i the right of way at the time of the accident. He said the prowl car was pretty
<br />, badly damaged and he had a tentative bid on a new car of $1,338.g8 to take the
<br />place of the prowl car; that the company would make an allowance of $438.98 on the
<br />prowl caras it ii, leaving a balance of $900~00 ~ith the federal tax~~~
<br />21 approximately $5?g2 to be deducted, which would make a net of about $842.98; that
<br />the estimated cost of the damage to the prowl car was $350.00 and this deducted
<br />from $842.98 would leave approximately $500.00 that a new car would cost the City;
<br />Ii that the prowl car had been run some 60,000 miles and Mr. Hawn said he was recommen<i-
<br />I ing that the City should buy the new car under these conditions. A motion was madd
