And woe to When termed the “buck,’’ Was our sturdy mayor disheart- ened? Not so. He kept the spotlight, and later, when the city council seemed a bit balky, he turned on more juice. Soon, lo and behold! the council voted him $10,000 to spend in any way he desired for in- vestigating the car deal. The mayor has had the money for several months.

But somebody has “leaked,” he says. Who “leaked” and what was the “leak,” we are not informed. We cannot accept literally the mayor’s complaint that the “leak” merely con- cerned the publication of his name as a witness before the grand jury before he himself had been subpoenaed. There's no “leak” in that: The mafor, having been chief deputy prosecutor himself, knows it is no violation of con- fidence to give out the names subpoenaed to court action, unless, of course, there is danger that the witness might leave the jurisdiction of the court in case he were informed jin advance of the subpoena. In the mayor's case, there was no such danger. No one }eould believe the mayor would try to beat it out of town. | It would be too absurd to think of. What was the “leak,” then? It must have been something “terrible” to have caused open friction between the mayor and the prosecutor. .Yet the “leak” is so heavily laden with mystery that itis the best guarded secret of the grand jury. Now, if nothing comes of the investigation, the mayor will blame Brown, and Brown, in turn, no doubt will blame | the mayor. It’s really a pity that the corporation counsel, the city council, the prosecuting attorney, and perhaps the grand jury also, can't work with the mayor.
