nick Asks Question
Official Interrupts George Rem
ner at Weekly Luncheon of
Commonwealth Club

A speech on the rehabilitation Of the
streets OF san Francisco at the weekly
MONDAY luncheon OF the Commonwealth
club threasened Tor lime yesterday TO
result in a bitter debate between George
Renner Of the street repair association
and Assistant City Engineer H D. II.
Connick- The menacing war clouds
were dispelled. however. by the diplo-
macy Of the two near combatants. The
averted row ended in love feast.
: Conniek and Renner leaving the cafe
arm IN arm
Connick clashed with Renner over
some figures which the latter had read,
showing q sharp contrast between esti-
mates OF the city engineer for street re-
habihtaton and actual cost figures for
me work performed under the direction
OF the street repair association. Rem
ner presented a talk giving six Jobs
which he named for basis. This
showed that where the city engt-
reer's department had estimated tl42.-
$50 as the probable cost the work
mad been estimated by Engineer Br0d-
erick for the street repair association
at $21SO0 and actually done for S22,-
5gL This. Renner explained. meant a
saving OF sI20,246 to the city.
Connick arrived late and was seated
a. 3 separate table from the other
6iners- Hs. leaped TO his feet while
Renner was arguing the point OF his
figures and asked permission TO inter
rupt the speaker. RsnneE stopped talk
ing
ASKS A QUESTION
Il would like TO ask you, Mr.. Rem
ner" be demanded, If before you made
up that table you inquired OF the city
engineers department as to what was
rneaut by their estimates II is en-
fireIy conceivable, you know" Connick
maintained. that their estimates called
1or something different from what was
done"
Renner began an explanation, but it
failed 10 explain 70 COnnick's salts
faction.
That doesn't answer my question"
he told Renner. did you ask them?"
No. didn't" hurled back the speak
er. They weren't SO enthusiastically
friendly toward US and We didn't eN-
change many love tokens.
Connick subsided, but when the other
diners had departed he came over TO
Renner seated at the table and again
took issue with him. Renner ex-
planned that he had meant to cast no
reflections on the city engineers de-
psrtment. but that he had tried to show
that the policy of spreading a small
appropriation over g large surface was
better than the plan OF the city en-
gineer to DO higher class work, but
consume all the money within a small
