mo MONEY FOR
ALLEY WALKS

Mayor Thompson has vetoed the
appropriation made by the common
council OF $4,000 for building and re-
pair of alley cross walks.
His action is based on Section 4.
Chapter S. OF the city charter which
provides that, In cases where the
board OF estimates has specifically dis
allowed an item, Ii shall be unlawful
tor the common council to pass-that
item again.
I'VE must uphold the law" said
Mayor Thompson, Tuesday noon. The
law Is very clear in this instance. IL
the board of estimates had allowed a
thousand dollars for this purpose, the
common council by two-third vote
could have increased the appropria-
ton. But as II is, the fund Is wiped
out and cannot be renewed"
A serious loss to the city may result
through this bl,oder OF the estima'
tors. The city is responsible for the
crossings at alley entrances and any
citizen suffering injuries through fails
or other accident resulting from their
poor condition would have cause Tor
action against the city. The fund of
Sc, 900 was insufficient last year to
build all the alley crossings demanded
by citizens and many are said TO be- in
poor condition now and liable To cause
lawsuits through personal injuries.
