That the municipal ownership

by Corporation Counsel Hally, will
not be submitted to the people with

certain In an informal discussion OF

said Aid. Lodge. II do not think We
could get the right kind OF men to
serve for the salaries the council
would offer. I do believe. however,
that we could get $4,000 and $4,000
men to come In and serve without
pay. and would insist that the
amendment specify that the commits
sioners shall receive no compensa-
tion'
The man who would receive the fat
salary. II was suggested. would be
the man whom the commission would
employ as It's general manager.
Aid. Littlefield raised the objection
that the council would have prac-
tically no control over the commits
sion. II would be In about the same
relation to the council as the water
board Is. and he was not inclined to
favor the amendment as II now stands
for that reason.
No action Was taken by the COM
mittee. and II cannot do SO until after
Aug. 1, when the amendment to the
home rule bill, under the authority
OF which the municipal ownership
plan would be submitted, takes ef-
feet. Secretary Schreiter was in
