A etubborn stand opposing Its paeage by Gary restaurant and hotel owners again blocked tho new Steel City sanitary milk ordinance at the regular city council eiion at the city hall last night when an eight to Ave vote sent It back Into the hands of the original committee. What will finally become of the proposed ordinance Is not known, but from talks heard for and against It at the city hall last night. It Is not likely that It will become a law unless It is modified. Restaurant keepers told the council members that it would not only be an Injustice to themselves but the public a well. The ordinance as drawn up would compel restaurant, hotel and cafe owners to serve mill: (for drinking purposes) to customers In the original containers (Vi pint bottles) as received from the dairy companies. One of those assisting the restaurant owners was C. A. "Warner of the Gary Commercial Club, who stated that tt had been tried out In other cities In the United States and having ptoven Itself a failure Is not now effective whers Jt was given trial. Restaurant owners also told the council members It would be tapoa slble for them to see the milk for 5 cents a glass and mlfics a profit and It would mean raising the price per glass to 10 cents. On top of this they explained tiiat those who are now "cheating." In other words skimming the cream from the cans, could do the same thing with the bottles. One council member substantiated this when he stated that ha knew this to be a fact for he had seen it done. OBEHN IS FREED ( 1 NT EK NATIONAL NEWS SERVICE CHICAGO, Dec 6.
