Miss Myers flushed and stammered

not read Jack Roses stories. She
said that she just had the glove

LAWSON THINKS
MARX WILL OK.
HIS ORDINANCE
Believes, Too, That Measure
Will Receive Support of
the Council
SAYS CRITICISM FAILS
TO SHOW WEAKNESSES
Insists ardent Advocates of
Municipal Ownership" Have
Nothing to Offer

Il believe Mayor Marx will favor
my ordinance says Corporation Coun-
sci Lawson, and il 1t is put up to n
vote of council II will carry.-
Those who have attacked the ordi-
nance have failed TO puncture any OF
the four vital features: The clause
providing for the reduction OF fares,
the city's option TO purchase the sys.
TEN at any time, extensions and the
clause compelling the company to
pave between the tracks.
The ardent advocates OF municipal
ownership have nothing TO offer, They
say, Sit steady in the boat; and let
1t go at that Are the people going
TO calmly sit in the boat, or in the
street cars. and pay five-cent fares UNI
Gil such time as the ardent advocates
OF municipal ownership say they are
ready to proceed with a plan OF their
own making? I hardly think so.
when tho decree is handed down In
the Fort-st. rental case the street car
question will be brought to an issue.
Something will have to be done at
once. The ordinance was drafted for
just such an emergency.
LAS far as the ID. u. X. is concerned
| have not seen nor heard from any
official OF that company on ordinance
matters, and | will frankly say that
do not want to at this time.
I'VE must first settle the disputes
among ourselves. and then the ID. IT,.
r. can be invited TO take up the ordi-
nance. The city will have the power
willingness on the part OF the ID. u. r.
the company must accept that ordi-
nance. hTe city will have the power
within few weeks to put the ID. u.
II. off so miles Of city streets.
The franchise has no jokers In It,.
II was carefully drawn UP and each
item was given great deal or
thought. The ordinance does not give
the company perpetual rights In the
city streets and 1t oes not give away
any other OF the city's rights. II Is
simply a day.to-day agreement be-
tween the city and the ID. U. r. where
by the company is allowed to con-
tinue operation on the city's streets
for certain valuable concessions-all
OF which are plainly mentioned in the
ordinance.
The city cannot wait indefinitely
for extensions and better car service.
The west side residents are clamor-
ing for new crosstown line; all the
other main lines are overcrowded. The
situation demands immediate action.
and as yet no one has advanced a
reasonable argument against the ordi-
nance, or offered anything better in
it's place"

police, who once arrested him, after
a gun fight. when he was found hiding
under the steps OF the late Gov. Pin
gree's Woodward-aye. home, after a
burglar had raided many homes in the
vicinity.
Capt Palmer says that the police
connect keinberg with the safe rob
berry in the charity Office. by the fact
that Feinberg's wife showed unusual
interest IN the loan Office. shortly be-
fore the robbery, and Feinberg is
known to the police as an expert at
