form. the government should be taken from the
present heads and transferred TO trustworthy per-
sons

saying it was scheme of the Controllers to re-
lieve the bridge crush. Condemnation of ferry
properties was necessary, he said but when Sen
ator Hinman pointed out that there could be no
real condemnation. since the city had pay the
ferry company price he declared:
