examined. Councilman Delaney
maintained that he Councilman
Shuey) had seen the plans and cited
an instance where he suggested
changing an article calling for a ) K.
w. pump to a 10 X. w. pump.
Councilman Shuey: This was/not
the plans and specifications but only
a preliminary sketch"
He maintained that no n saw
the final plans and specifications I'M
til after the resolution was passed.
Councilman Delaney: mi. Presi-
dent. Councilman Shuey is wrong for
1 for one saw the plans and specif-
cations"
With the permission of the chair
man, City Solicitor Coakley stated
that both the State Board of Health
and the Commission of Conservation
and Development had approved of
these plans and this should be
enough for anyone.
The vote was taken with the fol-
lowing result: Delaney, yes" Hac-
kett, mot voting" Kress, mo-
Shuey, mot voting;" Stanton, no"
The motion to adopt the resolution
was then declared lost.

himself for a time when he knew
that the contracts were to be award
ed. Councilman Delaney stated that
after careful consideration he found
that the MCGOWAN pump was the best
of the two and that he felt justified in
voting in favor of 1t.
Councilman Stanton next took the
floor and stated that he had no one TO
take notes for him to speak on as had
one of the other councilmen n surg
gested that the place for certain city
officials was at their own desks. He
state hat he had determined in the
beginning ito keep my hands off" n
he felt justified in taking this stand.
Let those whose shoulders are big
enough, as they claimed, shoulder the
responsibility.
Councilman Delaney: Twill Council
man Hackett explain What is meant by
his reference to notes"
Councilman Hackett: Question on
the notion"
Councilman Stanton: This has been
a fair and legal transaction from the
start and I wish to inform Council
man Hackett that l have not been a
party to a decker or deal as he in
fers."
Councilman Shuey: 'I raise a point
of order and claim the right to with
AACAN h11 WIZ
Councilman Stanton then cad the
law governing the council which
stated that every councilman should
vote either yes or no on every queS-
ton unless excused by the chair.
Councilman Hackett: II refuse to
vote"
Councilman Shuey: 1T Is not my
intention to stand in the way of the
MCGOWAN pump but L will not vote
on the question"
Councilman Hackett stated that he
did not feel it just to ask a man to
break q contract when he had abso-
lutely nothing to do with making it.
Rather than be a party in break
ing the contract 1 will quit the coun-
Gill;" he said. Councilman Stanton
then declared that notwithstanding
that both men acknowledged that the
McGowan pump was the best and its
purpose was for the best interest of
the city they refused to vote on the
matter. He then explained the pur-
pose of the recess and stated that it
was to acquaint the two councilmen
with the facts of the case.

original vote against awarding the
contract or advertising for bids
that he never saw the plans

luton was adopted and he did not

The total number of aliens ~deported.
including those refused admission and
"a Chinese deported under the ex-
clusion laws, was 11,T2S as against s.
916 in 1918.
The number Of admissions to cit-
zenship during the past year was larg-
err than any preceding year, amount
ing to 217,358." the report said.
Leaving out of consideration the year
1918 this was a far greater number
than was admitted in N two years
during Federal supervision. Military
statistics show 1883 aliens who ac-
quired citizenship after they assumed
the uniform of the United States"
The United States Employment Ser
vice at the end of the war had $50 Of
fees with a personnel of 1,70O and an
administrative force at Washington of

of 1918 the Service placed 2,69S,8S7

tration of 3,675,S58.

the department during the year num-
bered 1,011,968, while the number In
directly affected was 1~,336,072. Dur

He also urged legislation for the

Gilman Delaney voted yes" This
situation was the outcome of a debate
on the proposed change in the con-
tract with the Joseph l.. Swiegard
Company in the construction of the
new water works
The city clerk re-read the letter re-
ceived at a previous meeting advising
the council to substitute a MCGOWAN

bid, instead of the Worthington as
specified Following the reading of
this letter Councilman Delaney Of
fered a resolution which provided
for the acceptance of the MCGOWAN
pump
Councilman Hackett stated that
It was not his intention to OPP
pose anything that the majority would
bring up but 1t looked strange that
an appeal was made to the minority.
He claimed that when the proposition
of building the new water plant was
first considered every suggestion was
turned down He claimed that by
substituting the MCGOWAN pump the

Councilman Shuey said that for the
past two weeks he a looked over

he had been in favor Of a municipal

Tho Colorado complaint attacked vir-

usual interest because of intervention by
several other compliments. including the
New Mexico commission tho Utah traffic

The commission held that although a

exceeding It's maximum rate allowances
the record did not establish conclusively
that other class rates to points north

No necessity was shown. according to
the decision, for outbound western COM
modify rates from Denver
Proof also was found to be lacking that
class rates between Chicago, the Missis-

The commission found no adequate
basis for readjusting commodity rates
between the same Eastern and Western
points nor for changing ocean and rail
