Council man Cottel wears a dejected, haggard ex pression on his usually beaming counte nance these days. He says he is deeply troubled. Since introducing his celebrd proposed ordinance, forbidding spiritualist-mediums, clairvoyants and kindred practitioners to engage in their business here, he says he has suffered intensely. "I never believed in spiritualistic teach ins before," said Councilman Cottel yes terday afternoon, "but since I introduced that ordinance last Wednesday, somehow I have felt that 1 am being haunted by spirits. It seems to me that I can hear voices calling me all the time, and the telephone is constantly ringing; unknown voices ask me queer questions, and 1 can not understand It all. This morning I was called to the phone, and a voice I had never before, heard, asked me 'are you a humanitarian?' and immediately hung up the receiver. One sicial feature I do not understand Is as to why, knowing all things, past," present and future, the spiritualists did not see ahead of time that 1 was going to introduce that ordinance and have it stopped before."
