this, Mr.. Bame asked him if he
wanted to meet the people in Coun-
Gil who would prove it. Council
man Thacher then admitted that
he had instructed his Fair and
Square Club members to vote
against Mr.. Bame, and that he him
self would very definitely not vote
for Mr.. Bame.
Sidetrack Health Appointments
After Councilmen Etchen and
Thacher had probed the political
situation very thoroughly, there
was nothing left to do except get
down to city business but even
this was provocative of more po-
litical argument as the appointment
of two members of the Board of
Health came up for discussion and
was wrung dry of its political pos
sibilities by both Councilmen, aided
and abetted by Councilman George
w. Bryce.
The name of Harvey P. Jones
was submitted for reappointment
to the Board of Health and DR..
Raymond King as a Board member
to succeed DR.. Edward j. McCor-
mick who recently resigned, Coun-
Gilman Etchen raised the question
about the men, although Mr.. Jones
is now serving on the Board of
Health and that he wished to take
the question before the Committee
of the Whole.
Councilman George Bryce chimed
into the argument about the ap-
pointments saying that the Mayor
was supposed to make the appoint
ment with the advice and approval
of Council. He referred to Council
as a rubber stamp" and objected
to the appointment because he
knew nothing about the men and

Argument Ends for Lunch
As usual when there is a long
argument in Council, the Council
men got hungry and the meeting
was adjourned so the members of
the body go and get their noon
lunches. The appointment was
shelved for a meeting of the Coun-
Gil Committee of the Whole which
Mr. Etchen will not attend. Mr..
Etchen has missed more Commit
tee of the Whole meetings in recent
weeks than any other councilman.
He is chairman of the Committee
of the Whole.
