3. B. Johnson. = member o. the
board Of public works of Richmond,
disagreed with Mr.. Garrard In Z num-
Der Of points. He denied that It was
the cities having municipal ownership
that objected to . public utilities COM
mission. The element opposed to such
commission he said was the corpor-
atoms themselves. AS to the cause
Of duplication In public utilities. he
said. this was due to abuse Of fran
chise privileges which forced the peo-
pie to establish competition to bring
the offending corporation to time.
Corporations and the Lawmakers.
Mr.. johnson declared that the rca-
son the public utilities commission bill
was not passed by the legislature was
because the original bill had been so
incumbered with appendages obtained
by the corporations. He was convinced
he said, that the corporations holding
public utilities frachises had obtained
control Of large portion OF the law
makers Of the state. Terre Haute had
three times gone to the legislature TO
get relief from the water company that
Is depressing its citizens. yet each time
its plea was In vain. He said an In
dianapolis corporation magnate had
assured him that the public utilities
bill In its fnaI form was drafted to
conserve the interests Of the corpora
tons and not the citizens Of the NUM-
cipalities.
Mr.. johnson and Mayor Becker Of

sion having complete control OF fran

Disposal Of Garbage.
Mayor Robert L. Johnson of Aurora
and w. p. O'Neal, member Of the board
of public works Of Richmond, discuss
ed the question OF garbage disposal.
It was the concensus of opinion that
the ideal garbage disposal plan was Il
system whereby closed cans are pro-
vided for each house in a city. collect
ed daily and taken to the crematory
and reduction plant, the cans steril-
lied by steam and returned. HI. H.
Thompson. city engineer of Logans-
port and A. p. Melton city engineer OF
Gary. discussed the question Of sew
age disposal, both saying that sew
age publication plant was the proper
solution Of the disposal question. Re-
porting from the legal section. Arthur

favor Of school trustees being under
