"much concerned" about his claim of I COl1!Pll'nLy.

"But to tell you the truth, we did not pay a great deal of Ittan- tion to it." The police commission adopted a "wait-and-see" attitude. INFORMED OF STORY

Magistrate Orr testified Monday he had been informed of Culb- bert's story of splitting payoffs Iwith Mulligan for a six-week period in 1949.

He also told of an interview with Det.-Sgt. Robert Leatberdale in which Leatherdale said he had -been ”proposltloned" by Mulligan to "ease up" on certain city boot- leggers.

Both officers have testified.

Magistrate Orr said he had investigated "many sources" and had in his capacity as magistrate .many opportunities to do so but had found "no facts to substan- tiate” any of the charges. STARTLED COURT

The magistrate then startled the

court room-packed since the hearings siartedeby disclosing the existence of a let- ter contnining widespread charges against several police officers. i Reginald H. Tupper. head of the commission. intervened. Ilc said he now has the letter ”containing many allegations but I don't want its contents spread abroad.

"It is not-anonymousrbut I have reason to believe the signature is ;not a true one." said Com- missioiicr Tuppcr.

He said the letter will be In- troduced as evidence in the hear- ing "in due course."

Coun. Mt-Cnrmar pointeil out . that the employees of the Play-

ground Commission were depend- ling upon the 51.000 for wages. If the expenditure was not sanction- ed by the Council they would have in wait for their pay.

HEALTH REPORT

Dr. W. L. MacDonald reported that there were no cases of polio: in the City thus far. but urged. that. the usual precautions be talt-j on against the disease. its report; ed that I recent inspection of III restaurants in the City relative to dishes and utensils used. had been made and that the bacteria Ind culture count had not been satis- fnctory. He notified all restaurant owners to improve this condition before the next inspection. Dr. MacDonald said that the condition was not among I few but was gen- oral throughout the City in almost all the restaurants.

Coun. Elmer MacDonald in re-' porting for Public Property saidl that there were nine carpenters on the City payroll. He could not seal the need for such I large number! of carpenters. He suggested that the hiring and firing of men he left p with the City Clerk and when a man was not needed he should be laid off. i

Coun. Johnsinne said that he was under the impression that the City

Clerk had this authority. Mr. Ful-i

lerion replied that he was un-." 13 nwwd M, -,M.,m.,,,m Dm,m.d,.,-,-.,-H-gt,-:9.-I .-h.1.1...,.y "Ware mat such '0'” the "35?" .l. Paterson. a semi-retired farm- .. smce men were being employed C

Mayor Stewart said that this authority had been given to the City Clerk at I previous meeting and from henceforth he wanted lot see it carried out.

Coun. Gormley in reporting for- ihe Police Commitee said that at recent survey of the meiier situ-i ation gave evidence that the met-l ers were a satisfactory thing. He: reported that in company with Coun. Gaudet they made a 5.00 am. survey of 280 meters to find six not working. He found quite a number that would not work wiibl the first coin but would with that second. To show that the revenue from meters was increasing Coun.; Gormley said that the revenue for the month of July this year was 51.698 compared to 31.575 for the same period last year.

His Worship made the suggestionl that the Fire Department get my gether with the Water and Sewers- Commlssinn n ascertain the waierj

pressure in certain parts of the C; ,.k

City. He believed that in the north west area of the City therel was insufficient pressure. "it will not be much use in getting it new fire engine if there is no water for it to pump." he said. I LIGHTS '

Coun. Macnnnald said there have been many complaints about dark streets and suggested that :2 survey he. made by the C v's
