Four Plans Outlined For Revision Of City Oil Setup
City Councilman Raymond C. Kealer previewed four charter amendment options to reorganize oil operations under one department.

Kealer stressed orderly government and noted current harbor control lacks a unified petroleum division. He will detail the proposal at next Wednesday’s charter revision meeting after discussing with the Council.
