COUNCIL FACES BOARD SQUABBLE

In some form or other, the city administration squabble, started by the action of several councilmen who want the present board of works beheaded and another substituted, will come up in council April 7, say representatives of both sides. "Provided the eight councilmen who at a secret meeting two weeks ago, pledged themselves to the carrying our. of the plan as a move to save money to the city, remain true to their pledges, the move will go over," said Councilman A. J. Ford, leader of tho insurgents, Wednesday morning. "But there is a possibility that the eight will waver, and in that case,

of course we will be defeated, said

Ford. "We have been sounding pub

lic sentiment, however, and are sura that 98 per cent of the people want the move made.

"The present city administration has

spent as much money as the last one,

but the last administration showed re-1

suits, and this one shows comparatively nothing. No business man would think of paying three men $100 a month when they had other jobs which occupy almost their full time; yet the city does it." Councilman Joseph Walterman, another insurgent, expects a hot council meeting. Hints of a general attack on the administration, which may develop out of the present situation, were heard from both men. "The Zimmerman administration has been a failure," said Walterman. As for Mayor Zimmerman, he says that of course he does not know what council will do, but he wants the proposition settled one way or the other, soon. He expects the Monday evening meeting to go far towards ending the squabble.

Miss White rushes back the necessary grease paint to metamorphose the soldiers into the characters. In addition to her grease paint department Miss White has also under her supervision a file of songs, band

orchestrations, monologues and plays. In this work she has begun a movement that is making her exceedingly popular. She is making arrangements for all new secretaries to take to France with them a number of copies of the latest American song hits.
