Supervisor Dundon objected to the adop-
ti0n nf the resolution. be said that there
was a disposition id it to place too much
on the shoulders of Supervisor Ryan, who
was on no less than seven committees.
This was certainly asking too much from
one man, he concluded sarcaStically.
supervisor Denman conceded in these
views and stated that he did not believe in
three or four men getting together and
hogging the committees 10 suit themselves.
1t was not fair. He had never heard of
the arrangement in the resolution, but was
certainly opposed to any such way of
doing business.
The whole matter was laid over for one
week.
The resolution providing for the placing
at public auction of the telephone fran
chiSe recently framed by the board was
hnally adopted, and now goes to the Mayor
for his signature. The franchise will be-
come the property of the highest bidder.

K. Phillips of the San Francisco Labor
Council. inciosing an appeal for aid from
the executive board of the Women Wait
ers' Benevolent and Protective Union.
The appeal stated that since the closing of
the dives there were about 400 women
who have no other way of making liv-
ing. and that 60 per cent have TO support
mothers, sisters and children. The appeal
concluded as follows: You are strong, we
are weak. Help us, we ask you. We i'm
plore you to help u.s."

Ihe resolution granting permission to
the Board of Education to erect three
story frame addition to the schoohouse on
the southeast corner of Stockton and Bush
streets was passed to print. Superintend-
ent Forman strenuOusly objected to the
city violating its own fire ordinances, but
his opposition was of n avail.
The resolution appropriating $500 for
the purchase of a lot al Bay View for the
purpose of pesthouse site was indeti-
nitely postponed.

On the conclusion of the meeting the
members of the board continued to dis
cuss the levy. 1t was stated that on next
Monday night the same point will be
sprung on the Mayor as was used in the
water case. 1t will be claimed that he has
no power to veto the levy, or pass on it in
any way. for the reason that it is not so
expressly stated in the constitution.
which says that the Board OF Supervisors
shall make levy annually. According to
the plan, an attempt will be made to get
enough votes TO pass Kennedy's 81 II
levy. and then deny the right of the Mayor
to veto il.
