Mr. Balding said today that ha fav- orea a conference between a committee of councllmen and Mr. Bailey 'before aerinlte action la taken In rerard to city chemist, to determine just how much of the city's work csn be ex pected from the state office. Inaa much aa atatementa have been maria recently to the effect that anything like prompt returna and proper anaJyals couia not te obtained by tho city rrom tha auto office, Mr. Beldlng believes that the conference would aettle defin itely whether the fault la due to the management of tha office, or whether there la too much work for tha nreaent force to handle. If there Is too much work, Ml. Beld lng believes the state ahould a-lvw mora aaalstanta to the office or elae abollah It. If the work Is not being properly handled.
