WORK MAY BE ABANDONED Members of Board Receive No Compensation Advisory Serv ice Likely to Continue. Ko money from the city treasury is avalable for use of the city planning commission during 1921, according to Information given by members of the city council yesterday at a joint meeting of the council and commis sion held in the office of J. G. Ains worth, acting chairman of the com mission. A request for an appropriation of $6000 was made upon the council by the commission, with the information that the commission was faced with many important problems which must be solved during the next year. Mem bers of the commission, it was ex plained, are giving their time with out compensation. In making the request it was understood that with the defeat of the zoning ordinance "the services of Charles Henry Cheney, planning expert, would be dispensed with. When It was announced that the council, because of lack of funds, would not be able to appropriate any funds for the benefit of the commis sion, even though it was recognized that the work planned by the com mission would be of general benefit to the city, request was made for the services of city employes from the department of public works to carry out the proposed programme of the planning commission. City Commissioner Barbur, in charge of the department of public works, objected to this plan, explain ing that the budget of his depart ment had been reduced so materially as to make it impossible to lend any of his employes for work which did not come under the department of public works. It is not known if the refusal of the council to appropriate funds for use of the planning commission will cause abandonment of the work of the commission. It is believed, however, that the members of the city planning commission will continue to function as an advisory body to the council without attempting to carry out any of the many proposals for improve ments in city planning into effect during the next year. CRUELTY CHARGED' WIFE Divorce Plaint Says Hot Curling Iron Used as AVeapon. Walter Mosher, in a divorce com plaint entered yesterday against Gen evieve Mosher, charges that he still bears the brand of his wife's curling iron, inflicted when she was angry and the iron hot..
