PREDICTS VICTORY
FOR BOTH PLANS
LOOKS As THOUGH THE ALDERMEN
WILL CONCUR WITH THE
LOWER BRANCH.
DON LEAVY IS HOPEFUL
UNDERSTOOD THAT WHITsTET
WILL INSIST ON ONLY MA
JORITY VOTE on TWO
ORDINANCES.

Both the four-ward and administra-
tive board plans will be approved by
the Board of Aldermen tomorrow
night without further amendment. ac-
cording to a prediction made last
night by Alderman John F. Don Leavy.
Of Clay ward.
Though personally in favor of the
original board plan as drafted and
submitted by the special committee OF
which he was a member, MIR. Don
Leavy says he is willing to yield
point or two in order to insure con-
currence with the Common Council.
Under the committee plan of ad-
ministrative board, the police. fire. ana
health boards are uEnoiested.
Eleven other aldermen are reported
to take the same view as to this
measure as Mr.. Don Leavy. but like
him most of them are not expected
to make fight to carry their point.
Majority Assured.
A majority is assured for the four
ward plan by the promise of at least
thirteen aldermen to support it. These
are Adams. Bennett, Butler. Don
Leavy. Gilman. Grundy, Gunst, Hob
son. Kahn, Mitchell, Moncure, Moore
Rennods.
Aldermen who favor the Hirschberg
plan Of administrative board. as
adopted by the Common Council, in
Guiding fire. police and health depart
ments, are. Grundy, Hobson. Mitchell
and Patram. This is the guard that
proposes TO stand firm and bring
enough votes over them to carry the
board ordinance as It reads at present.
Favor COMMITTEES Plan
Those who favor the committee plan.
excluding fire, police and health, are:
Bennett, Bliley. Butler. Don L.eavy,
Gilman. Gunst. Kahn. Moncure, Moore.
! Perdue. Rennolds
Those reported as opposed to the
administrative board are. Adams,
Grimes. and Donahoe.
MIR. Adams says he Will insist on an
amendment providing for appointment
! of the commissioners by the Mayor,
/ with confirmation by Council. in lieu
Of popular election of the board as
provided by the ordinance.
Mr. Adams will doubles play the
role of floor leader for the opposition
i Hobson Stands Pat.
Alderman Graham Il. hiodson, of
/ Henry ward. declared himself as EN-
! phaticaiiy in favor of the plan as II
now stands. at the meeting of the
! Clay Ward Actiyes Saturday night
/ AT the same time. he gave warning
! that he would vote down any COM
promise. Sentiments of the other
| speakers We're practically to the same
effect with the exception that some o!
them favored keepin~ the police. fire
| and health boards intact.
! Latest advices are to the effect that
| President Whittet. of the Board OF
/! Aldermen. will rule that only a ma
Jority vote is necessary when the
| measures are taken up for consid-
| Grafton by that body, despite reports
TO the effect that he Will insist on a
| two thirds vote to insure their pas
| sage.
