Ralston said there are about 30 habitual drunkards in town, all lousy, and that after they have been jailed cleaned up and turned loose, they are arrested again in a few days in the same condition. Patrolman Roy Hoffman said that some of these men have “been_drunk for five years” and have been in ia 0 times. Five gallons of Lysol have been used at the jail for anti- septic purposes in the past month he said Stockade Proposed Ralston also asked that a stockade be established at the new cemetery so that prisoners can be taken out of town and put to work. The Chief’s requests were referred to the Police Committee, which is to meet at 8 o'clock Thursday evening. Two ordinances were passed last night. One establishes City salaries as set by the Council last week. The only addition is that the work week for common laborers and truck driv- jers on City projects was reduced | from 48 to 44 hours per week. Labor- {ers get $6 and drivers $7. The other {ordinance gives the Council the ‘power to combine any two of the | following offices in one person: | Magistrate, City Clerk, City Attor- ney, Chief of Police, Assessor and Treasurer. Tom Hanson was chosen the new garbage dump caretaker, succeeding Frank Dominique, who it was found was not a citizen. The caretaker is paid $30 per month.

The Council authorized purchase (of $350 worth of Fire Department expenses until thel new tax period. Charles W. Carter appeared before the Council to ask that it amend an action of the 1911 Council setting | | aside a plot in Evergreen Cemetery | | for Silver Bow Lodge No. 82, 1.O.OF.| Terms of the 1911 gift were that the | | plot was to be used for burial pur- | poses only. Now Carter wishes to build a crematorium and columbar- ium on part of the plot, has the permission of the lodge, but needs | action of the Council to change the | terms of the old deed $10,000 Crematorium Carter said he planned to spend $10,000 on’ the crematorium and would operate it several years without profit. After City Attorney Grover Winn expressed doubt as to whether the present Council can take action on Carter's request, the matter re- ferred to Committee-of-the-Whole to look into its legal aspects more closely. City Engineer Milton Lager- gren said the building code requires that a crematorium can be built only on special permission of the Council and after a public hearing has been held.
