NEW CHARTER COMMISSION.
Judge Cray Has Not Decided Whether to
Appoint One.

Judge Cray has not decided whether
or not to comply with the request of
the city council and appoint new
charter commission. When asked
about his intention by Free Press
reporter, he>stated that he had not been
formally notified of the action of the
council as yet, nor had any committee
waited upon him. He said that he
had not yet looked up the law on the
matter and was not in position to
say what he would do.
It is believed by those who know
the situation best that Judge Cray will
be glad to appoint new commission
as soon as he is convinced that it is
the general desire that he do so.
If the new charter is to be prepared
in time for submission to the peo-
pie at the spring election, giving
them time to think over the changes
made, something must be done very
soon. A commission should be ap-
pointed that will avoid the mistakes OF
the former commission The latter
undertook too much. A few of the
most needed changes should be made,
and the commission should halt there.
The more changes that are made the
more people are antagonized and the
less the chances of adopting the charter
are
