Bradford Favors Old ordinance

~ dIFCf TdHOFS via OFGlhShCe.
The committee reported 70 the mass
meeting ard Mr.. Bradford suggested
that the city sick by the old ordinance
and insist that the council see thar it is
enforced. He further declared that the
ordinance should be so amended as 20
provide for 4 penalty. by fine Of from
81 20 800, for violation of the terms Of
the ordinance.
He believed that if It cost the com
pany more none to install new
phones ard to maintain a larger svs-
tam, then the citizens should order
1000 or 1900 phones removed in order
that the company might realize a pro-
fit on its Investment.
Herman Wants Phones Removed.
Mr.. Herman stood for the emoval Of
the phones. He had been to Cedar
Rapids. where he had seen Congress
mar James Good, who had advised
him that such means would be the
most simple and easiest way to ac-
cnmrlish the ends the citizens had
started out to gain.
Mr.. Herman suggested that a petit
ton be circulated for the removal of
phones. fearing that if Mr.. Bradford's
suggestion was carried out the city
might become involved IN IeSaI enCAn-
clements that would mean a heavy
and Unnecessary expense.
Insledue Explains Action.
Mayor Ingledue explained his action
in not signing the new ordinance. say
ing he withheld HIS signature because
he believed that the company would be
pleased to see the new ordinance
adopted, giving them a greater oppor-
tunity to eventually win their point In
the courts.
Mayor Ingledue raised the question
as to what was meant by a single party
line, and believed the courts would
have to decide Just what the ordinance
meant. and 1t might resrilt in the single
party line being defined as a line 70,
two Or four patrons.
He suggested that as a compromise
the following rates might be adopted
