CITY COMMISSIONER
HAS STRENUOUS WORK

Probably none of the city commits
sioners has had such a task as a re-
suit of the flood as Mike Studzinski.
commissioner of safety and high
ways Thousands of tons of mud
filled the streets and other thousands
dust and straw to huge tree trunks.
blocked the passage ways. while
hundreds of dead animals had to be
removed Immediately to prevent an
epidemic. of disease.
For five days and nights. Mr.. Stud
zinski did not take off his clothes
and had only five hours sleep in all
that time. Before the military units
arrived. the commissioner had start
ed his task. His men were removing
dead horses and cattle when the
army engineers entered the city. His
wagons were moving the mud before
the army equipment arrived. When
the city was placed under martial
law and a military officer placed in
charge of the cleanup. Mr.. Studzinski
worked constantly with Captain Van
Law. who was in charge of the de-
streets. cleaning up the debris and
enforcing sanitation He is receiv-
ing the full and hearty cooperation
of Mr.. Studzinski who is directing
the general policy of the clean up.
Over 200 dead horses were burned
cattle were taken from the railroad
yards and cremated. 1t was a trem
endous task and a dirty one, but Mr..
Studzinski was dressed for the oc-
casion in a kahki suit that was caked
with mud most of the time. He
hasn't had time to visit and the
chances are that he has hurt some of
his friends by failing to stop a mo-
ment on the street and talk about
the weather."
AS far as martial law is concern
ed, the cooperation of Mr.. Studzin
skis department and the army engin-
eers is so complete as to make it
difficult to determine what is mill
tary and what Is civil.
Mr.. Studzinski is not the only one
of the three commissioners who has
worked. According to the charter.
each of the three commissioners has
jurisdiction over certain departments
of the city government In such an
emergency it was necessary that each
commissioner look after his parti-
cular department as best he could,
and It was impossible for them to
remain in constant session to take up
the thousand and one matters that
were presented daily by the citizens
thru the flood emergency. Telephones
were unavailable and the commits
sioners could not keep in touch with
each other by this method They
arranged. however, to meet three
times daily. Despite the confusion
the city commission has functioned
smoothly and city work has dovetail-
ed into the military authority with
both organizations accomplishing
with dispatch the bringing of order
out of chaos in this city.
