Becauso of an unfavorable turn In tho condi tion of Senator Chamberlain, a soc- ond operation was not performed to- day. GARBAGE MAN ' SAYS RATE IS INADEQUATE "When tho somewhat reconstructed city council holds It first meeting next Monday night It wilt bo con fronted with a problem ot a mora or lets odorlforlout nature Garbage It Garbage Collector Fred Orcnnon'a wishes are compiled with, will bo topic for discussion. If council as similates and digests It thoroughly; in accordance, with Mr. Orcnnon' do sires, an Increato In tho revenue de rived through Its collection and dis position will be granted. Mr. Grennon was Interviewed on the subject today, following Informa tion to the effect that be had decide ed to aak a big Increase for handling tho city garbage, possibly 300 per cent. Mr. Grennon smiled an Indul gent smile when the alleged rate ot Increase was mentioned, and stated that while he surely was going to ask for more money for the worky tbo. stipulation would not ask tor more than 50 per cent. According to Information from the) city clerk' office, Mr. Grennon baa been licensed by the city to haul ( garbage until December 31, this year, ho having paid $1000 license for the prlvllego ot doing the work. Things havo come to a pass, however, where the collector has ceased to consider It a privilege, and he Is going to de mand that the city pave the way for him to got at least $750 a month for the next four months, else they can confer the privilege on some other deserving mam. With the conferring ot the license Is the municipal mandate that no per son can haul garbage other than the licensee, except In cases where own ers of garbage prefer to dispose ot It themselves. This ordinance was adopted February 17, 1919. On April 26, 1920, the council amended the old ordinance permit ting tho garbage collector to charge $1 per yard for hauling dry garb age. Instead ot 50 cents per yard, the old rate. The price for hauling wet garbage, 25 cents for ten gallons, or less, removals to be made twlco a week, was not changed. There Is no salvage, for him, from dry garbage, said Mr. Grennon. Wet garbage, however, provides food for hogs which be buys and sells, but there Is a reverse hog market now, the quantity ot wet garbage has dwindled, and revenue from thla source has dwindled accordingly. Futrhermore, the condition ot 'the roads, which makes hauling harder, piles up his gasoline and repair bills, and Inconveniences him generally, makes It absolutely necessary tor him to ask a higher rate for collec tions. In addition to this, It Is prac tically Imposslblo at this time ot year to collect garbage from private residences, except where they aro located on tbo pavement, and this also has decreased his revenue at least $40 per month. With three men and hlmsolt on the Job, and two trucks constantly In use, Mr. Grennon states that ho can not afford to do tho work unless he Is guaranteed $750 each 'month. On tho other hand, thoro Is an othor side to M. Orennon's proposi tion. When spring arrives, bringing with It n moro favorable hog market and bolter roads, ho will be willing to accept a reduction, a reasonable ono, this reduction to remain In ef foct until unfavorable weathor ar rives again. This, In effoct. Is Mr. Orennon's ultimatum. If the town council does not nBsIst him In his effort to get what bo considers ndoquate compen sation It will not, to uso his words, mako him "a bit mad." but some oth er man who has nothing olso to do with bis Irucks, can havo tho Job. A few businessmen wore Interview ed regarding Mr. Grennon's demand. but nono of them cared to aiscusa tho situation, although It appeared that they would offer no serious ob jections to Mr. Orennon's request. As further support ror ms .- Hon that this, Boajon of tho year works a hardship upon him and ...nkns it more costly for him to ou- oruto, Mr. Grennon calls attention to tho condition of the alleyways about town, Not one of them, no says, la- in good shape.
