Adding renewed speculation to the
disquieting reports and' uneasy rumors
that have, been In circulation for the
past few weeks as to the probable dis

by the present administration, th,e city

in the office of Dr. Alan Welch Smith,
one of Its members for an Informal dis

Smith, R. J. Chipman, George B. Story
and City Health Officer C. H. Wheeler.
"The board did not arrive at any
conclusion," said Dr. Wheeler today,
but It was the opinion of a majority
that the plant cannot be accepted In its
present condition. The advisability of
calling a special session of the board
June 25 was considered, but as Mayor
Simon says this will be unnecessary. It
Is not probable that such a meeting; will
be held.
