This statement is containgd in a letter in which the former candi- date for mayor criticizes the coun- cil for its conduct at Wednesday night's meeting. Mr. Smith points lout that Alderman Walter R.

He also questions the right of Act- ing Mayor Nair to sign bills and resolutions on which he voted at this session. Commenting on the refusal of the council to accept Councilman W. D. Boyle's suggestion for a month's postponement to allow Mayor Quig- ley to express his views on the sewer project, Smith writes: “I do not hesitate such action was an newly elected mayor ain and I have been formed that the Hon. has been considering sewage disposal to say insult to the of New Brit- personally in- G.
