carson SAYS LEAD
PIPE ORDINANCE
USELESS BURDEN
Council Receives Quarterly Re-
ports and Begins New Years
Official Duties.

The ordnance prohibiting the use
of any but lead water pipe connec-
tions is tremendous burden on poor
home owners who are installing hy-
drants or making repairs, is the be-
lief of Frank l.. Carson, water COM
missioner, and he is urging its repeal
The commissioners declare that lead
pipe is the best that can be put in
and that any other kind is dangerous
to health. They all agree, however,
that the price charged for the pipe is
almost prohibitive
Mr.. Carson would like to suggest
that the city purchase a large con-
signment of the pipe and sell it to
the home owners at low cost, but
the fact that every appropriation was
shaved to the limit last year in an
effort to prevent an increase in taxes
makes it unlikely that such action
Will be taken.
Commissioner Holmburg last night
presented letter in which he listed
his objections to the plan of allowing
the garbage work to go to the lowest
bidder. He declares that this plan
does not insure good work and in
sisting that the present plan of plac-
ing the garbage collector on a salary
te continued.
Applications were received from
Harry e. MulniX and John II. Baker

CIVIL SERVICE
EXEMPTION BY
TUPPER RAPED
President Williams viii Oppose
Effort to Put Men Back in
SpoiIS System.

Sharp issue is taken with City At
torney Henry Tupper by members of
the civil service commission over his
ruling that a number of city en-
ployes who are paid regular salary
are not under the civil service COM
mission and it's rules.
Mr.. Tupper declares that an en-
ploye must be covered by ordinance
and not by resolution before he can
be considered amenable to civil ser
vice rules. AS a matter of fact Mr..
Topper admits that he and the COM
missioners for several years have
overlooked a striking provision of
the charter which necessitates each
salaried employe being placed in the
annual ordinance. This error will
be corrected at once, in the opinion
OF Mayor Cherrington, but Mr.. Tup-
per's contention that in the mean
time these employees are exempted
from civil service protection is very
strongly objectedfto by President o.
u. Williams of thE commission.
Mr.. Williams,.lin support of his
position, declares that the error is
one of the commissioners and the
city attorney and that "salaried en-
ployes" in the ordinance relating to
are paid q regular monthly stipend.
Wage earners. he says, ARE con-
fined to those paid daily or weekly
sum or employed by the job.
City employees when told of Mr.
Tupper's ruling We're outspokenly
opposed to it and declared that it
was long step backward in a re-
turn to the spoils system. 1--WE as
sumed that we had the protection of
civil service" one man who is af-
fected, declares, ''and we object to
an exemption by attorneys opinion.
The discussion arose over the
question of whether or not A. c.
Schwenker is amenable to the civil
service or not. Mr.. Schwenker was
appointed garbage collector a month
before the civil service ordinance
was passed. Therefore, under the
rules. Mr.. Schwenker retained his
position under civil service without
examination and cannot now be re-
moved without the right to protest
his removal to the civil service COM
mission which may review the case
and decide whether or not he should
retain his position. Mr.. Tupper's
ruling would take from him that
right of appeal and this brings on
hlm the opposition OF commissioner
Hoimburg. The latter favors the re-
tention of Schwenker while some of
the other commissioners would
throw the garbage collection open
t. the lowest bidder as was formerly
the custom. Mr.. Holmburg actively
objects to the proposal and insists
that there are questions of health to
be observed in choosing a garbage
collector which could not be looked
after If the lowest bidder should Sc
cure the job.
Mayor Cherrington is decidedly OPP
posed to the civil service principles
ard declares that he will pay no at
tention to the rules IL he decides that
a ulan is no longer fitted for en-
ploypent in his department.. How
ever, nc, friction between the mayor
and the civil service commission is
looked for.
