Corporation Counsel Lamar Hardy
said yesterday:
Now that the Leg stature has de-
monstrsted that II will DO nothing 20
relieve New York City from the dan
ger of polluated water. the city will
press the injunction suit. This suit

Senator Brown said, 40 confer with
the leader Of the minority and with
Senator Slater on the proposition. and
feel certain that We can all come 70
an agreement that Will satisfy every
one"
The compromise offer OF Senator
Brown has come too late was Senator
Wagner's answer.
The fight over the Mohansic bill was
unusual in that it srrayed Governor
Whitman and the Democratic minority
on one side against the almost solid
lineup Of the Republican Senator'S
from upstate. The Governor was one
OF the busiest men in the Capitol when
the debate was on. many OF the Ropub-
lean Senators asserting that they had
been sent for By Mr. Whitman and
urged 20 support the Wagner motion.

peeved AZ the result. They declared
that II Senators Mills. Hefernan AMI
Doll had been in their seats the Wag-
ner motion would have carried.

Senator Wagner said in the debate
IF II is a question Of price. We will
pay. II Il is question OF dollars, Of

money rather than have the lives Of

that New York State would never have

Jackie. From the rear OF the hall IT
was hard to see the stage because thick
clouds OF smoke, as thick as any sweep
ing over the trenches, rolled up from
the densely packed audience.
These men, many Of them only boys
in years, though veterans IN expert

and suffered the pain Of the damned and
the tortures Of hell They had lived life
