ICE, GARAGES AND
 MOVIES DISCUSSED
Common Council Takes up Va
 riety Of Subjects at Meeting

The ice situation again took up con- siderable time at the meeting of the common council last evening" The subject was broached when Council man George M. Landers called atten- tion to the probe that is being con- ducted in New Haven relative to the cost of ice. He declared that the statements he read concerning the facts brought out are quite startling and he would be heartily in favor of some authorized step whereby the public would be impressed with the necessity of conserving the ice supply, just as they have been in the past urged to conserve fuel, sugar etc.
 Mayor Quigley explained that nego- tlations are under way by which the city hopes to secure an adequate ice supply, but MT. Landers still insisted that the facts relative to the ice short age should be printed. Alderman Curtis Wante>- to know what remedy could be offered and MT. Landers re- phed that former Food ministrator Scoville stands ready to put his or gan1zatiOn to the work of rationing out ice. The discussion ended with the decision to have extra extracts of the New Haven investigation report printed.

Garage Matter Discussed.

The garage controversy was again aired when the following was adopted as restrictive ordinance:
 No public garage shall be built and no building shall be altered or changed into a public garage, in a To- calty where 75 per cent. of the build lngs within a radius of five hundred feet from the proposed building are used for strictly residential purposes, nor within five hundred feet of a church, school house, public library hospital, sanatorium or orphanage Permits for the erection of such build lngs or the alteration or conversion of existing buildings to be used as a public garage shall be issued or re- fused by the building inspector in con- formity with the above rule"
 Alderman Paonessa said that in his opinion the ordinance will operate as a hardship.
 The laws are made for the bene- fit of the many; not the few" said Mayor Quigley.
 Alderman Curtis said that the dis tances could be modified if desired '.Councilman-aI4and inquired how the distance "500 feet" was arrived at. Councilman Wall said it was simply concluded.
 Garages are more injurious than saloons. They allow saloons within 200 feet of churches and schools" re- marked Alderman Curtis.
 The section was adopted.
