other recess until April without elect.
ing officers.
Many are of the opinion that they have
overdone the whole business and II the
matter could only be contested II would

Aldermen for the appointment OF Super

convention was illegal and their meeting
on April 4 to count the votes Will also be
irregulsr unless the Joint convention Is
dissolved In the meantime.
Under the charter the convention can
not be dissolved until the election OF off,
GERS Is completed, and one might say right
here that ordinances have no right to be
adopted and have no force unless passed
by concurrent vote.

political sense, but there Is such thing
sometimes as OVERRIDING 1t.
