COUNCIL HISS BREWING
MR. DALY'S SWITCH OX JITXEY OH-
DIXAXCE DISAPPROVED.
Mayor Albee and Mr. Baker Think Ex
pressed Wishes at Electors Should
Be Carried O.f.
With Mayor Albee and Commissioner
Baker strongly in favor of the- enact
ment by the Council of the jitney reg
ulation ordinance in the exact form in
which tt was adopted by the voters in
June, a Councilmanic fuss is probably
in store for tomorrow morning when
the Council , takes up consideration of
the proposed new ordinance as prepared
by Commissioner Daly. The new ordi
nance has eliminated from it all the
provisions of the original ordinance to
which jitney drivers objected.
Mayor Albee and Commissioner Baker
have made their desires in the matter
known. The stand of the others will
not be known definitely until tomor
row when the question is brought up
for consideration finally.
The alteration of the ordinance by
Commissioner Daly is looked upon as
the forerunner to almost endless delay
in passing an ordinance in any form.
To pass the ordinance in such form
that it will not be subject to the ref
erendum will necessitate unanimous
vote of the Council. To pass it with
out an emergency clause wuum mean
the Invocation of the referendum, which
would hold it up for two years in spite
of the fact that the people passed the
same measure by a big majority two
months ago.
Commissioner Baker says he can see
no reason whv the ordinance should
bo changed from the form it was in
when it was adopted by the voters.
The measure as adopted then was pre
pared and voted for by Commissioner
nalv. A lively fuss is looked for to
morrow when the proposition i3 aired.
