CITY FATHERS
ARE PLANNING
AN 'NAUGURAL'

1t is ~sure-enough inaugural that
the outgoing city fathers are plan
ming to hand to the incoming super
visors. Unless these plans fail, the
last official act of the present board
will be to pass the plumbing ordinance
over the veto of the mayor. which that
official intends handing in tonight.
Under the law the old board ceases
to exist at noon of the first Monday in
January, in this case Jan. s. one week
from today. Under another law the
board must wait. five days after the
mayor vetos a bill before attempting
TO pass it over his veto. Thins brings
the time on which the board can act
on the vetoed plumbing ordinance to
Saturday. Sunday is a holiday and
Monday morning will be the first Op-
portunity for the supervisors to hit
the mayor a crack and pass the bill.
Also it will be the boards last OppOr-
tunity to transact any busine SIS at all
Therefore the need of deferring action
on the bill until that date.
The new board will take the oath
OF office Monday morning. The oath
will be administered by one of the cir
cult court judges, probably Judge
Cooper. The members will then pass
into the assembly hall, where the old
board will be waiting for them.
The old board will pass out and
the new board will witness the swear
