limited, sub rosa, to the mayor that

After period of silence which
seemed quite embarrassing for all, ].

the absence of Major DeLan, came 20
the rescue and relieved the situation by
saying that if he wished to do so Mr..
Howard could state that he made the
request for an extension on behalf of
the company and his statement could
be embodied in the record. Mr.. Howard
then took the cue and said that he had
been asked by an officer. of the com
pany to make the request and introduce
the resolution, but he, like all the
rest, very adroitly avoided giving any
reason why the original contract had
not been completed or why any exten-
