City Counci Anti-Smoke
| to Study
Programs
In Pittsburgh, St. Louis
Plan Early Field Trips
Before Passing
On Ordinance Up for Action Here... ~~,
Members of the City Council will go to Pittsburgh and St.
Louis to study the smoke abatement programs in those cities some time between Thanksgiving and the next regular meeting, a week
from Monday.
In a closed-door session today in Mayor Al Feeney’s office, the council agreed to divide itself into two groups, one to visit PittsI
burgh and the other St. Louis. Results of the meeting were given to the press after its conclusion. Council President Christian J. Emhardt said the council wanted to make the trips before holding any public hearings on the proposed smoke control ordinance for Indianapolis. He said the council agreed unanimously that this would be the wise procedure. The controversial smoke control ordinance was introduced into the council last Monday by the Board of Air Pollution Control. It was referred to the Safety Committee for consideration. “Conflicting Ideas” Prior to this morning's session Mayor Feeney labeled the proposed measure “a group of conflicting ideas that would be challenged in the courts after its passage.” “The ordinance should set up a united program free from political influence if it is to succeed. I have read this measure and see no possibility of coming out with anything sound in its present condition. We should take advantage of the results of the hard work of other cities,” the Mayor declared. Immediately following the session in the Mayor's office the councilmen called a special meeting in the council chamber to appropriate funds to finance the projected trips. - They indicated they would need $2000 for transportation and the services of a court reporter for each group to record all proceedings during the trips. Transfer Funds The council explained that funds for financing the junkets would be transferred from an unexpended police salary account to a transportation and special contractual fund from which money can be used for this purpose. Mayor Feeney and the councilmen said they believed the trip was necessary so they can study successful smoke abatement programs in operation before placing one in effect here.
Mrs. Boettiger Hits
‘False Deductions’ NEW YORK, Nov. 18 (UP)— Mrs. Anna Roosevelt Boettiger charged today William Bullitt made ‘false, glib deductions” when he said President Roosevelt was {ll at Yalta and had difficulty in formulating his thoughts. “It happens I was at Yalta with my father and Mr. Bullitt was not,” she said in her weekly radio broadcast last night with her mother, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. “I feel I am in a good position to say what Bullitt chooses to call his ‘deductions’ were entirely false. Admittedly, my father was tired, but his mind was as deci-

ants who have been “tagged” by Mr. Dailey as possible choices for the key investigating jobs are being opposed by one faction of the Democratic Party —and vigorously. Mr. Dailey, caught in the middle of the ruckus, is said to be resisting attempts to “plant” certain assignments on his staff that might disrupt office loyalties. Two powerful Democrats were reported to have served notice on Mr. Dailey that if he doesn’t change his mind about his choices of police investigators ‘there'll be trouble.”
Mayor Can Take Over
The assignments of police officers to the prosecutor’s office has been a custom followed by several prosecutor administrations in the past. The chief of police merely assigns two officers to work under the prosecutor as a matter of courtesy and cooperation. In other words if the battle comes to any kind of a showdown, the Mayor can take matters into his own hands and refuse to assign any officers to the prosecutor. Mayor Feeney already has been informed of the dispute and he is said to have suggested that no assignments be made although he didn’t flatly refuse. So, if Mr. Dailey’s term starts Jan. 1 without police officers, the explanation will be apparent,
