Bennett asked Heise where he obtained the fiture $2000as the cost of the audit that he quoted in his circular. Heise said he would check his records and he would let him know. Mrs. Hillstrom showed Heise the ledger with the figures ;3671.72 as the total cost of the audit and reminded him that he had signed the checks so he should have known that the figure of $2000 was not correct. It was called to Heise's attention that the phrase "Crystal's Murky Finances It was not one used by the Public Examiner,�e� but that it was a headline on an article in the Minneapolis Morning Tribune written by Helgerson and approved by Mrs. Hillstrom herself after the audit report was received. )03 Bennett asked Heise why their literature had no name and address of the author nor the name and address of any other person or committee causing same to be published, issued or circulated on the face of it as required by law (under 211.08 Election Laws). Printon said they had done it on the first ones but had "slipped up" on this one (the ones under discussion.)

Heise with a pink sheet which had been distributed with his literature in an area in the Village near the Harold Truax property which had been rezoned "multiple dwelling". Mr. mc- Cullagh told Heise they were very unfair in accusing him of "being retained by Truax", "dreaming up the Multiple Dwelling Ordinance" and "railroading this thru the Council." He said he was not retained by Truax. Reference was made to a Council meeting of August 11, 1953, at which a motion was carried instructing Mr. McCullagh to prepare an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance providing for Multiple Dwelling District. Printon and Heise said they had no knowledge of this pink sheet. There being no furlhkrer business, the meeting was adjourned, subject to the call of the chair.
