authority or approval OF tho CITY
Council. Mr.. Mainland IL reported ne
saying;
"rhe NEWS asserts that the Mayor
appointed Mr.. Pendloton without con-
mlting the Council or asking to con-
firm his action. These are not tho facts

II Councilman wantland OK pressed
himself In this manner he has not
confined himself to the facts. The
DEsERET NEWS simply reported what
was alleged by u member Of
the City Council. In comment
Ing upon the matter, we expressed the
opinion that probably there had teen
some mistake" ami that" the Mayor
may have been under the impression
that he was authorized to proceed nc
cordIng 10 the resolution that was In.
troduced but which failed TO carry in
the Council.p

tion was referred to the Mayor with
power to acb" authorizing him ito
appoint n suitable person for that POSI-.

in tho interest OF the city,s water
rights. In this he takes irsuo with
other members OF the Council, not
with the DEsnRrr NEWS as he pre-
tends. But taking no the matter
on his assumption, we now
ask him TO produce cory
