called for Friday evening at which time
the question OF daylight savings could
be discussed and action taken with
similar action being taken in Gary and
Hammond it is considered very probable
that the East Chicago council will meet
in special meeting Friday evening
The Industries and railroads which
operate in the city are the parties which
are at present most concerned over city
action II East Chicago fails to pass
the daylight savings ordinance 10 CON
form to Chicagos action the Industries
OF the city face the alternative of ask
ing for a change in suburban train
schedules or or starting work an hour
earlier. The railroads which operate out
Of Chicago have already announced that
their suburban service viii run on the
new time schedule.
The industries are practically ALI in
favor Of daylight savings. but prefer
that the city take action by ordinance
II is possible that they might change
me WORKING hours without city action.
but BY so dding they believe a confu-
sion would result which would be
greater than that caused BY the neces5
sary change in suburban train sched
ules. -
Canvasses Of the industries and busi-
ness houses OF the city by the Cham
her of Commerce and the Indiana Har-
