Action On City
Jobs at South AmbOV

SOUTH AMBOY, Feb. 21.-The
separate ordinances drawn at the in
stigation Of Councilman Disbrow,
dealing with the confirmation of re-
cent appointments to city positions
were presented to the council body
last night for their first reading.
As is the custom the ordinances were
laid over, but on the Offices of city
engineer, water commissioner, city
solicitor, and the assessor for the
third assessing district. the Repub-
lcan members of the council, Dis
brow and Tice, voted no" on the
motion to lay over under the rule.
1t means that the expected disagree
rnent has been postponed and will
IN all probability come to light at the
next meeting of the council two
weeks hence.
There were eight separate ordin-
Ances drawn up especially for the
confirmation proceedings, Council
man Disbrow Directing to a blanket
ordinance covering the entire eight
offices to be filled. Four of the
eight appointments will positively
be confirmed if the voting at last
nights meeting is any indication to
the proceedings at the next meeting.
If the Republican members are
E the same frame of mind at the
41ext session, the various ordinances
will be presented to the mayor for
his approval or disapproval. In the
event that he vetoes the four ap-
pointments, opposed by the major
1ty members, another vote will be
taken by the council, but unless a
two-thirdS vote can be recorded it
Will be necessary to draw up resolu-
tons holding over these now hold
ing offices with the city.
4 No n attempts to give any rea-
son for the attitude of the Republic
can members, although it is quite
certain that one of the members will
give his reasons at the occasion OF
the final passage of the ordinance.
The real question that has and still
interests no small number of per-
sons about the city is just what
Mayor Chase will do on the confir-
nation when presented to him, al
though some think he will uphold
the minority members and veto ac-
cordingly.
Those effected by the ordinance
are John J.. Braney, water commits
sioner; Francis P. Coan, city solicit
tor; Arthur T. McMichaels, city en-
gineer, and James Dawson, assessor
for the third assessing district.
On the vote to lay over the ordi-
nances John J. Connors, street com
missioner, received a unanimous
vote as did Edward Van Buren,, for
port warden; Edward Dolan, city
electrician; DR.. E. A. Meacham, city
physician.
