ea THE SEATTLE STAR The Seattle Star === -copesallge Ave., Seattle, Wash. Pudliening On and United Representatives mn renciece Phone MAlne Gestion, mont Mt eece ¢ monthe 9200 q POOR SPORTSMANSHIP MUNICIPAL LEAGUE members are going ahead with their referendum petitions, seeking signatures to place on the ballot a referendum elec- tion asking the public to determine whether it wants a freeholders’ commit- tee elected to revise the city charter, ; Meantime City Comptroller Carroll says he'll refuse to spend city funds to j | ’ check the petitions, pending formal decision as to the legality of the refer- ! endum. Corporation Counsel Kennedy, in a friendly letter to Carroll, the : other day, advised him to take the matter up with his bondsmen’s 3 attorneys. It looks like a case of poor sportsmanship on the part of Municipal leaguers. City council, anxious to please both charter amendment and charter revision factions, placed both the amendment and_ the freeholder plan on the ballot. Now the Municipal leaguers, instead of permitting the ublic to vote on both questions, is trying to kill off revision in advance by lemanding a referendum on the referendum. Meantime, the whole city manager situation is becoming so badly mud- | dled up that the public grasp of it is reaching the same point as was the if author of a book that came in the mail the other day. _ " On a handsomely decorated colored cover was the title: “What I Know About Women.” Inside were 26 blank pages.
