Before the real business was taken
up Clyde w. Saunders had a question
OF personal privilege. Notwithstanding
newspaper reports to the contrary, he
said no meeting of the plans commit
tee was held Monday afternoon, there
being only an informal conference
Therefore, he had been put In bad with
newspaper men who were his friends,
and who had been informed by him that
no business was transacted. but who
were told on the outside to the CON
trary. After the meeting, Frank Fer
randini' OF the plans committee,
against whom Mr.. Saunders's remarks
were directed, apologized, and the mat
ter was ended.
The truth about Wednesdays meet
ing OF the plans committee is that to
get something tangible, Chairman
saunders voted for the majority reso-
luton, which was offered by James Fl.
Price Had the vote come up last night
on the report. Mr.. Saunders would have
been forced to support it, as 1t bore
his signature, SO he looked on with
equanimity when it was tabled, since
he preferred the Darlington resoiu-
ton.
