Home Assured To Manhattan Navy Club
At a Manhattan Navy Club board meeting doubts about the club taking title to the property at 18-15 East Forty‑fret street were dispelled. The purchase price was $250,000 with $4,000 more for transfer and tax charges. An endowment fund of $800,000 had not met expectations, so $40,000 additional for title was to be raised before June 1. Directors, under protest, expect the sum to be forthcoming as the campaign ends.
