Gill's ordinance repealing the Murphy ovdinanee by which $65,000 was appropriated for the be wengy of a municipal gawbage collection system will be favorably re ported to the couneil tonigttt by Mir, Gill's firranee comarittee. Everything pessilite has teen dome by Gil and his a seciates to seeure votes for this repeating ordinanee and until the: roll is oatled toniglit it wilh be impossible to accurately pre diet tlie nreasuie @f success with which their efforts have been reavaed eck Tt is ha passible te conceive, however, how any self- fr ing commeilmwn ean vote for this repealing measure. The priblie is almest unanimously in favor of a municipal garbage collection system. Health Commissioner Crichton and his as- sistants have recommended it. Experience in other cities has proven that it is necessary. On the other hand, the only men who seem anxious to de- feat the installation of a municipal system are the Italian gar- bage collectors and their friends in the city council. The for- mer have even attempted to bribe members of the city council Ss ‘The garbage collection privilege is worth so much to them that they are willing to pay councilmen 100 each for their votes and influence. Every man who tonight votes for the repeal of the Murphy ordinance surrounds himself with the suspicion that he has been “won over” by these Italian garbage men. The public doesn't know how many councilmen may have been approached with an offer of bribery. All that is known | is that Counciimen Murphy and Revelle were given the oppor-| tunity of making $5,000 each and that they refused to have any dealings with the men who made the proposals. | Isn't it possible that other councilmen may have more} favorably considered such a proposal?
