that Mr.. Bassett should have been the subject of
luton forwarded.
THE request of your association is denied"
Commissioner Bassett said last night that Gov
Hughes would have removed him if he had

The rapid transit law he said. makes
certain things possible that we're not possible un-

ing "a have officials removed because of their
vote year and nine months ago, should try to
adapt themselves to the law"
