Powell Ordinance Regulating Play

to City Attorney ON Question OF
Its Legality.

The Council Committee on Ordi-

the much discussed traffic ordinance.

the paper to the Common Council with
the Recommendation that il he passed
The ordinance had boon recommitted
by the lower branch for further con-
sidcration. The committee declined to
rcscind It's former action. and will send
the> measure back in the form as
previously recommended.
Let the Council pass il or reject
it," said Alderman Fuller who offered
the motion TO return it again for pas
sage. Alderman Christian did not con-
cur in this view; he sought to amend
1t. but was unable to do so. His was
the only negative vote on the motion
to send the measure back TO the Coun-
ell
The ordinance was originally pre-
pared by subcommittee, but many
changes were made i'm II Dy the full
committee. and many sittings were
sent on to the Council. On the floor
of the Council what were regarded as
detects were referred to. and the paper
was recommitted. President Peters
objected to the measure at that time
on the ground that it would be inn
possible for persons occupying inciosed
vehicles to give signals AS the ordi-
nance would require.
AGAINST HURTING 10000
FOR BENEFIT' OF FIFTY
Alderman Fuller last night said that
t would be ridiculous to eliminate tho
provision requiring signals. to the
detriment of 10000 citizens. 5000 Of

benefit of less than ffty who drive
inclosed vehicles.
