T'The. city .suggested a one-cent a gallon royalty for each gallon sold, � but Southwest said this isnft financially possible at this time.�P This may lead your people to believe that Southwest_ - wanted to go� into the busiress of selling fuel at � � the airport �vhich, � as you= know, � was`not the case�:'" -� Th�e' unde"rground refueling`� faeiTity as planned� was' for the exclusive purpose of refueling Southwest aircraft. . . .. _ s ,. . : : . . . . . _ ; . ., . . ., . 3 . �MORRISOlI declared no one should Tmonopoi"ize" our` pro- perty.Yt There was no intention to monopolize anything.

A Kiddie car ride, a Kiddie boat ride .and a Kiddie aeroplane ride ._ These rides will be new equipment and are considered safer for small children than the �Ierr.y-go-round, as the rate of insurance on them is quite a bit less. It will take time to ,get this equipment,_ hence the request for approval at this timea My lease covers .plenty of land for these extra rides, but there should be a .little leveling done over there .
