BOARD OF WORKS
IS IN JEOPARO
Municipal Organizations Hav-
ing Charge of improvements
May Be ReadjuSted.
NEW LAWS ARE PROPOSED
PLAN is TO HOLD CITY ENGi-
NEERs RESPONSIBLE.

To take from the city board of pub
lie works the inspection of all public
work undertaken by the city, whether
on force account or by contract. is the
purpose Of a bill which will be intro
dueed in the legislature this week. The
bill does not emanate from the city
itself. but will be introduced at the re-
quest Of citizens whose property has
been affected by the alleged loose and
careless methods Of inspection under
the existing system
For several years there has been loud
and long complaint about the board of
works inspectors. Mayor Bransford
took official notice of the defects in the
system in his annual message to the
council. The board of works in its
annual report referred to it and ad-
mitted that the cost was heavy. Mem
bers of the city council, on both sides
Of that body, have siightingiy referred
to the inspectors. None of these, how
ever, has taken any steps in the direc-
ton of remedyins it.
May curtaiI Powers.
Should the board of works oppose
the bill. which has been drawn and will
be placed in the hands of Senator Carl
A. Badger today. 1t may have to fight
for it's own existence. There are some
who think that the board itself has out
lived its usefulness. There are others
who think its powers should be more
strictly defined and therefore curtailed.
Opposition to the present bill viii prob
ably lead to the introduction Of more
sweeping measure concerning the board
of works
There has already been laid before
some of the members of the legislature
data regarding the work of the board
and its alleged shortcomings The
strained relations between the board,
the city council and the city engineer
are pointed out as tending in the di-
rection Of anything but the citys in
terests.
1t is not likely that the bill will place
the appointment Of the inspectors with
the engineer, but it viii provide that
he shall pass upon their qualifications,
and it win hold him responsible for the
kind of work they may do. Should the
measure pass he viii be responsible for
the proper performance of all city
work. whether performed under con-
tract or otherwise.

Goshen Against Prohibition.

The Rev. Elmer l. Goshen was the
first speaker and he came out in oppo-
sition to prohibition. He said he had
lived in two prohibition towns. and he
never wished to live in another. He
had seen more drunkenness there than
he had ever seen anywhere in his life.
He believed a prohibition law would
be reactionary; that it would be against
economics. If the state had the power
to prohibit il had the power to regu-
late. and If they can not regulate, how
in the name Of God are they to pro-
hibit?" he asked. He was for temper
snce. but not for statewide prohibit
ton.
