PROPERTY IN CHICAGO (2) A recommendation from the Comptroller of the University as to the building at the southwest corner of Wood and Polk Street, Chicago, Illinois, known as 1756-58 West Polk Street, Property No. 106 (Page 102 of the Report of the Comptroller for 1918). The property is in bad condition and will require considerable renovation before it can be profitably rented. It consists of a corner store room and five flats which have a total renting value of 3106.00 per month. One of these flats has been vacant most of the time. The building is in poor condition and needs almost constant repair. It is in a section where rents are very low and desirable tenants are not numerous. No action was taken on this matter. SALE OF M'KINLEY SECURITIES (3) A letter from the Comptroller concerning the sale of the McKinley securities donated for the erection of the Hospital. February 18, 1919 President Edmund J. James, University of Illinois M Y DEAR PRESIDENT JAMES: I enclose a statement showin probable present selling values of the McKinley securities, indicating that we could probably nov/ realize at present prices about $83,300. In addition we have realized to date on the income from these securities a total of $9,466.39. I have submitted this schedule to Mr. McKinley and asked for his advice, and he has replied that he does not consider this an opportune time to sell utility stocks or bonds. He suggests that in his opinion, we can realize more on these items later on. Mr McKinley suggests, however, that if we could get 95 on the Booth-St. Louis Cold Storage Bonds, that it would likely be a good sale.
