Maurice Willows. who is at the head
OF corps OF experts working under

dation, has almost completed q study
OF social conditions In Detroit, and will

BRICK RUSHED TO
CITY; PAVING
JOBS co ON
Commissioner Haarer Assures Man.
ufacturers That Bills Held Up Will
Be Paid and Shipments Have
Been Resumed.
Work on Fort-St. West To Be Hur-
ried; VIII Be Done by Nov. l,
Is Promise.

Although no action has been taken
by the council as yet toward releas-
ing the brick bills held up by Mayor
Thompson's vetoes, the brick manu-
facturers affected have resumed ship
ments to Detroit and Public Works
Commissioner Haarer is going ahead
with the paving operations that have
been held up for several weeks. This
is taken to mean that the commits
sioner has received assurances from
the aldermen that the bills will be re-
leased In time.
One of the big jobs held up by the
mayors veto was the paving OF Fort
ST., from Dearborn-rd to the RiySr
Rouge Commissioner Haarer had as-
signed Medal block, manufactured by
the Deckman-Duty Co., to that street,
but the mayors action held up the
shipments until few days ago. Now
II develops that the brick for this
particular job are nearly all In, and
Commissioner Haarer says that the
street will be open to traffic by Nov
1. Brick for other paving Jobs are
also coming In at rapid rate, and
the commissioner is hopeful Of COM
pleting all the work laid out for this
year before snow flies.
What induced the brick manufac-
turers to resume shipping?" the COM
missioner was asked.
II assured them that they would
get their pay" he replied.
Does that mean that the council
will release the bills?'
IL have not talked with single
alderman on this matter. but l as
sumo that the city will live up to Its
contracts"
1t Is known that many Of the Re-
publican aldermen are in favor OF ro-
leasing the bills vetoed by the mayor.
They take the position that he had no
right to veto the bills after approving
the contracts entered into between the
department OF public works and the
manufacturers last spring. Aid. Allan
and several OF his colleagues had plan
ned to have the bills taken from the
table and passed over the mayors
head In the last meeting Of the oonn.
OIL. but the attempt was abandoned for
some reason or other. the presunip-
ton being that the aldermen could
not muster the necessary two-thirds
vote.
