complied with a mandamus order from
Justice Shearn yesterday, rescinded its
former actor and approved three sub
way contracts which retained the clause
permitting contractors and the Public
Service Commission engineer to agree
upon lump sum payments for extra
work.
At the same time the board protested
that 1t has the right to pass upon the
all subway contracts and that II neces-
sary II would assert that right in the
future. But for expediency's sake. in
order that the dual system be no longer
della yed. the !. ard was willing to back
Gown and permit the contracts over
which long litigation was threatened to
go through in their original form.
Mayor Mitchell said he still believed
taat the board could change legally con-
tracts that had been awarded by the
Public Service Commission and II" hoped
there would he a test in the highest
courts.
Il think the entire board understands
hat what We do to-day Is merely to
avoid long delay" he explained. II
shall welcome an opportunity to appeal
his question when there Is not 50 much
at stake. but at present We should not
tie up a vital section OF the subway
system"
Whereupon the Mayor rushed away

burg. where IN his absence yesterday he
was promoted from sergeant 10 second

gestion Of Chairman Mccall Of the Pub

resolution asking the commission 30 or
der no extra work IN excess of 8 per

tract without the approval Of the Board

Will approve no lump sum contracts"
