Be Taken by Council Prob ably to Rescind Chairman ship Act. Declaring that (hu proposed bond Issue for streer. paving would not I carry BO long as the voters of the city ?were not allowed to elect the com missioner's who will handle the funds and direct this important work, a pro minent taxpayer of the city declared yesterday that he had sounded the sentiment ot citizen? in his ward and bad but one man who was not oppos ed to the proposition as it now stood. I this one man being undecided as to ?whether he would vote for or against the bond issue. "I am not saying that the people lack of confidence In the commission ers who have been appointed to take charge of the paving matter," he said, "but I do know that those with whom I have talked think that city council should not have the power of making these Important appoint ments. The people do not care for self-appointed authorities to handle the paving matter. On the contrary, they prefer to select these men themselves; and UK.-' prefer to do lt at the polls." The speaker was asked what he thought of the chances ?for the bond issue carrying were the voters al lowed to select the commissioners, ?and be replied that he believed the [proposition would prove acceptable to I the taxpayers, though there woulld be no big majority piled up. Changes la Commission. Aa will be recalled, city council adopted resolutions creating a paving commission of seven members, three of whom should be 'members of city council and four citizens selected at large. Tho resolution further pro vided that the mayor should be chair man of the commission. Some days ago Mayor Godfrey stAt od that he thought city council had unconsciously erred i In adopting that feature of the resolution making the mayor the chairmen ot the commis sion, and said that at the next meet ing ot council he would request that that proviso of . thej< original resolu tion be rescinded; leaving the matter of selecting a chairman for the com mlsaion to that body.
