Council Doubts Right of
Harbor Commission TO
Act in the Matter
S0LONS WANT TO
KNOW WHO'S BOSS

For an hour or more last night
members Of the new City Council and
the recently-created Board Of Har-
Dor Commissioners discussed the ques-
ton as to who was to control the
water front. While nothing definite
was done, on the subject. It was evil
dent that members Of Council are de-
sirous of learning who is 10 be boss"
Council, or the various commissions
The question was brought up by
Charles Warner and James P. Win
chester, Of the Board Of Harbor Com
missioners who explained that they
had leased o strip of land along the
Christiana river az Spruce street to
the Pussy and Jones Company for a
period of five years at a rental OF
$1,000 a year.
This, according to James Kane,
Councilman from the Fourth ward
and Slant B. Atkins. of the Second
ward, was the very thing the old City
Council had refused TO do. as that
body desired the Pusey and Jones
Company to purchase the land in
question at Councils figure. SIS 1000.
Mr. Kane explained that II was the
ciiy's desire 10 sell this land. pur-
chase the Ten Weeges property along
the river front and to erect a public
wharf there Mr.. Kane said that there
seemed TO be an invisible hand at
work trying to prevent the city from
owning a public wharf Mr.. Warner
and Mr.. Winchester stated that they
had acted in the best Of faith. and
considered the lease a good one. and
they had thought they were working
In accord with the wishes Of Coun-
Gil. They also stated that former
City Solicitor Hastings and Thomas
+. Bayard, the present city solicitor.
had given them an opinion as to their
rights in leasing river front lands
and wharves Mr.. Bayard then ex-
planned he had already drawn up the
lease.
Mr.. Bayard. who was present.
stated that under the new act Great
ing the commission It had the power
TO lease all wharves, warehouses and
lands owned by the city. thereby TAX
ing that power from Council.
This opinion was not shared in BY
wi NAME anu UantIrs WHO LUOuEuI
that Council had 10 approve such
leases, and this brought up the ques-
ton as to who is boss" the Council
or the Commission. Mr. Kane said
that he thought the Commission had
interfered with Council business IN
entering into the lease. and that Il
such leases were legal. n meant thai
the Commission could lease this
Christiana River Park lands or an.
other lands that Council may see n
to secure by purchase or otherwise.
Mr. Winchester explained that tn
Pussy and Jones Company had enter
ed into an agrednent with the Gov
eminent for the construction OF vari
GUS vessels and the land in question
was desired for this work. He stater
that he thought the Government
should conhscate the land II they 81

Council had agreed 10 sell the lant

fused point blank TO purchase II an'

showed the company wanted some
thing for nothing.
The discussion over the lease took
place during a recess OF the Council
in committee OF the whole. and at its
conclusion Mr. Bayard was asked for
an opinion as to who was to have the
final decision in such matters. the
various commissioners or City Coun-
ell.

THREE TONS OF
PAPER GATHERED
School Children Make a Fine
Showing in First Week
of Campaign
SEVENTH GRADES
ARE IN THE LEAD
Proceeds from Sale of First Weeks Ac-
emulation Amount to S47.36 Three
quarters of which Goes to Playground
Fund and Balance for Special Prizes.

Six thousand seven hundred and
twenty eight pounds OF old newspapers
and magazineS-over three and half
tons-were collected by the children OF
the public schools during the first week
OF the campaign instituted by The Re
former.
The sale Of this stable accumulation
has brought IN a total Of $47.36, three
quarters of which, or S25.4S, will be
turned over to n fund for playground
purposes, and the balance, $l1.sS. will
20 toward a special fund to be divided
at the end of the month among the
three rooms which show the largest
number OF pounds per pupil collected
III their respective buildings.
Both teachers and pupils have en-
tered heartily into the paper collection
campaign, and the interest that has
been aroused during the first week is
indicative Of still greater efforts as
the campaign progresses.
To grade : of the Canal street build
ing 90 the honors for making the
largest collection during the first week
of the contest, its total being 1919
pounds. while in second place is found
grade I OF the Main street building
with total of 766 pounds. These
figures, however, do not show which
rooms are in the lead for the monthly
prizes. as these will be awarded on the
basis of the most pounds collected per
pupil. Some Of the rooms which show
small totals are likely to be found near
the top in the prize list for the reason
that they have fewer pupils than
others.
1t is the hope Of The Reformer and
the school authorities to keep the paper
collection campaign going for several
months and in that way to accumulate
considerable amount of money which
will be available for use for play
ground purposes in such a manner as
| the school officials think best.
The prices paid for this week S ac-
emulation were 50 cents a hundred
for newspapers and so cents a hun
dred for magazines, but il is expected
that next week S prices will be more,
possibly - cents for papers and 81
q hundred for magazines.
