Politics Versus Public Duty

Tortuous is the path left by Mayor Robbins
in his desperate effort to escape an investigation
by some judicial body Of the charges Of incompe-
tency which have been preferred against. one Of
the officers Of his administration, Dairy Inspec-
tor Lou Glenn, but fortunately, the public is
stil able to follow the trail not being 50 credu-
lous and ignorant as the mayor imagines.
Although council accepted without questioning
His Honor's latest excuse for not providing some
authoritative inquiry into the conduct Of the Of
flee Of dairy inspector the public is not inclined
to permit the mayor to block such an investiga-
tion by Juggling in an ordinance enacted In 1870
a. the obstacle; an ordinance having absolutely
no bearing on the question raised, for it merely
prescrihes how judicial inquiries shall BE con-
Quoted BY council into charges preferred against
elective officers, not appointve officers such as
DR.. Glenn
BY citing the 1870 ordinance as reason
Why council cannot provide judicial intestiea-
ton of the Glenn charges, Mayor Robbins has
either deliberately attempted to trick council or
he has placed = most stupid interpretation upon
it's provisions, an Interpretation which, if sau-
thentic, would deprive the mayor Of his constitu-
tional right to remove appointive city officers
from, their positions without the consent of
council.
In attempting to prevent the investigation
Of the Glenn charges by board of inquiry clothed
with full judicial powers; can it be possible that

Mayor Robbins can easily recall the flood Of
