ALL EXPRESS HOPE
FOR SPEEDY DECISION
Say Commission Form Law
Should Be Either Upheld
or Invalidated.

The action OF J X Mcleod in bringing
The action 10 test tho new law providing
for commission form of Govcrnm ent

Lake City were recently elected. fur
pshed a topic for general discussion
yesterday. While some regretted that
there appeared to he any question as 10
the validity of the law, the consensus OF
law was advlsedly taken and that no
matter what the outcome, the suit was
we'll worth while
A prominent attorney. one OF the
orlClnators OF the movement for COM
mission form OF government for Salt
Lake and q. strong supporter OF the can
didates of the Citizens committee at the
recent election. said that IL the suit had
ing the action himself. He said he be-
lievcd the courts would sustain the Va
lidity Of the law and sinccrely hoped they
would. but that an Immediate judicial
for the protection Of tho newly elected
officers.
This attorney took the position that so
long as there Is any question AS 10 the
constitutionslIty of the law. that uues-
ton should he Immediately tested, so that
"A final decision might be had and I'm
order that no further question might

ously embarrass the officers Of tho city
and place the municipal government in
chaot condition pending tho decision,
II the question we're brought up at some
future date after the new officers we're
in power and the courts decided that the
law was unconstitutional. all of the acts
OF the new city officers would be inyaIi-
dated and the city would be in a serious
predicamsnt.
The first legal battle in the contest
arising from the passage Of the new law
by the last legislature Will come OH Fri
day In Judge Morse's court. Judge
Morse issued temporary restraining or

is returnable tomorrow and at that time
efforts Will he made To secure a perlna-
nent injunction, 1t Is probable that fur
thcr time Will he granted and the areu-
ments on the question will come next
week.
No matter which way Judge Morse de-
cldcs the question, an appeal 10 the state
supreme court Is certain. Both sides are
eager for an early decision and 1t is
probable that the suit will be definitely
decided by the supreme court within a
few weeks.

VALIDITY Of PARK
LAW TO Be TESTED
Members of the Board Desir-
Gus of Having Authority
Defined.
OPINIONS ARE SOUGHT
Attorneys Will Be Asked to
Give Views Upon Mooted
Questions.

Steps are to be taken 60 determine the
validity and constitutionslty OF the new
park law passed by the last legislature
and also to ascertain To what cxtcn, IT
conflicts with the commission law, This
was decided upon at meeting Of the
city board or park commissioners yes
terday afternoon. held In the office Of
Mayor John S. Brausford.
That there Is a. conflict between the
park law. under which the board IL ap-
pointed and acts. and the commission
law, the consti,utionalty OF which Is 10
but thus far il has not been ascertained
TO what extent this conflict may exist.
Under the new commission law com
missioner OF parks and public grounds is
naturally usurp his duties, II is claimed.
Still Another Question.
Another question Is involved in the fact
that the park law was approved by the
governor the day following the commits
sion Law. Thus the commission bill be-
came law previous 10 the park LAW and
as the park law carries with 1t q clause
repeating all statutes in conflict with it,
IL Is an open question as 10 whether OF
not one law approved the day after an
other law passed by the same lcglsla
ture can repeal any conflicting provision
or the law which was approved first.
Also tho constitutionality of the park
law has been questioned by some on the
GROUNDS mat IL permits tls BOARD TO lcNS
8 tax for parking purposes. The MEM
hers Of the park board are very desirous
OF learning the extent OF their author
ity in this matter. and at the meeting
Yesterday afternoon II was decided 70 get
the opinions OF several attorneys on ,the
matter,
\. Fred wey. chairman Of the board
thought that some action ought TO be
taken 10 ascertain what the facts OF the
matter are, whilo the other members de-
clsred that they do not intend 10 be
ousted from the offices as members ot
the board until the matter is settled by
the courts
Opinion to Be Asked.
b. F. Redman suggested that the mat
ter be taken into court TO test the law
but finally. otter a discussion. IL was
agreed to secure the opinions OF several
attorneys first. Mr.. Wey suggested that
the board engage the services Of An at
torney, but George Aucrbach declared
that he could secure counsel without
the board being compelled TO engage it.
II the members are not entitled to hold
their places by law each one Of them ex-
pressed himself as being willing TO give
them up, but In that they have been prop
erly appointed they intend to find out
what the law Is on the matter first.
In any event. Mr.. Wey declared thai
he knew the people were with the park
board, owing TO the showing which I:
has made. What action Will be takei
by the board depends largely upon tho
opinions of the attorneys, which are
asked.
