stating the members of Pony /Colt League can see no real need for
lights on the Recreation Park Baseball diamond, and giving their
reasons. Ordered filed.
2. ELVIN G. WALKER, President American Little League, Inc.
concerning the issue of lighting the hardball diamond at the Recreation
Center, and urging the accomplishment of the project. Ordered filed.

X 1412
Councilman Frederick brought out the fact that these funds
are Federal funds only sacondarily, as the money had been paid into
the Federal government through taxation; that he would be inclined
to refuse tol accept any Federal funds rather than increase the total
burden of taxation on the people; that he recently returned from a
trip to the East and noted that the amount of Federal aid some of
the communities received was out of proportion to their population;
that if all cities in the United States received the same amount of
aid that one particular city did, it would cost the Government 496
billion dollars this year alone. He further pointed out that it was
the same with the recent Flood Control program when Governor
Brown after declaring this a disaster area stated we would be
entitled to receive $17,000.00. This amount would not help the
people who really suffered - it would merely permit the City to be
reimbursed for overtime pay to some of our, employees. He further
stated he would like the matter analyzed to show how much we are
paying for what we would receive.
Director of Public Works Webb stated 'it was his understanding
of the basic tenets of the Legislation, it is due to the urbanization
of many areas; that heretofore FAS funds could only be used in
County territory; now the Government wants to reallocate the money,
not change the formula or the rate of taxation, but permit certain
FAS funds to be used inside of cities which has heretofore been
impossible. He felt we should look with some favor in applying for
money from the County.
Councilman Tandy stated he felt the Council should go on
record as being opposed to used Federal funds for strictly local
purposes; that he agreed with Councilman Frederick after seeing
some of the Federal handouts and that we should do all we could to
stop this sort of thing and keep our dollars at home.
6. JAMES S. MIZE, Chief Deputy Clerk, Board of Supervisors,
Los Angeles County, re city - county cooperation in the planning and
programming of Master Plan highways. Ordered held for further
study.
