Clauses Questioned by Councilmen

to correct tne somewhat generax mis-jadc Kose, who has peen the head
apprehension that the Realty Sales
Contract now being signed is a new
form, Mr. Leo B. Jacobs, manager of
the A.R.R.C., met-with the new and
retiring Civic Councils Monday

night. It was explained that,
this contract is the same as/
the one which some Colonistp
have already s ignffljwij

ever, TTTere
some misunderstanding /
caused by the fact that (
these Colonists were caljled
in to sign the Realty Sa^.es
Contract a second time. _
However, according to Hr. Jacobs
the reason for this was that
it has recently been confirmee
from Washington, D. C., that
an additional 20^ reduction/ / of
the adjusted figure as
explained to each Colonist \ /at the
time of his debt adjustmenty would
be in order and there will be no
interest payments until 1940, when
payments on principal and interest
will be due. This does not affedt
payments on the chattel mortgages.
Mr. Jacobs did not attempt to con
vince any one that he should sign
the contract but rather -tried to
.clear up some of the misunderstand

not a deed, Dut rather the sane as
a conditional sales contract or
agreement to purchase. When the

"is paid up, the owner will receive'
a deed to his property.
There was considerable discussion
at the meeting with regard to the
clauses of the contract regarding
