Councilman Annand advocated a plan soms two years ago, and still advocates it wnicn would make unnecessary tns building of ths ersmatery In ths city limits. He wants ths city to adopt the airtight stsei garbaas car system in transporting ths city's refuse that is in vogue in every city or pretensions in ths United States.
