Part SALT VJ 1 ta MUM Council to Consider Budget on Thursday Street Car Fare Petition and War Board Letters Not Mentioned. In a session that lasted less than one hour the 1 1 general council of Atlanta. Monday afternoon. voted to table the report of the finance committee which included the bud get for the next twelve months. id.

after passing upon a number of minor matters the body adjourned until Thursday afternoon of this week. when the city fathers will again come together to consider the finance sheet for the year. This action followed a custom that has been observed by council for a number of years. and the tabling of the finance sheet was for the purpose of allowing various members of the city council an opportunity to more closely examine the budget for the coming year before casting their votes for or against its" final adoption. And notwithstanding that It Is believed the present provisions of the budget do not meet with the entire approval of the councilmen as a whole there seems but little chance for any changes of more than minor Items.

as the state of the city finances Is known to all members of council who realize that no appropriations can be increased unless some possible added revenue might be found that has not yet be- come apparent to the members of the finance committee. DUenutoH of Skeet. There was no discussion of the sheet when it was presented with the report of the finance committee. Chairman Hatcher merely making the motion to adopt It. This was quickly followed by a substitute motion from Councilman Claude Ashley of the fourth ward.

who moved that the budget be placed on the table. pending its examination by members of council. A motion to fable does not admit of debate and vote was taken at once resulting 5n the tabling of the finance sheet. Alderman John S. McCtelland called on City Clerk Walter Taylor to announce that he UlcClelland did not sign the finance sheet Another action taken by the city fathers was the adoption of a resolution by Alderman Jones M.

Ewing asking for the appointment of a special committee to look into the question of securing for Atlanta a future water supply that would be of a permanent and adequate nature. This resolution was unanimously adopted. but the members of the committee were not made public by Mayor Pro Tern. Johnston as yet. A resolution upon the death of Colonel Robert J.

Lowry. chairman of the Grady hospital trustees. In which the passing of the prominent and highly teemed citizen was officially made kown to the members of the general council and in which expressions of regret were. luteJ was unanimously adopted by council. The council members were also notified of a va cancy on the board of trustees for the Grady hospital but the election to fill this vacancy caused by Colonel Lowrys death.

His retention as tax Investigator which office he has tilled for some- Ume was unanimously approved. A resolution' to bring about the abolishment of the city marshals office by effecting a combination of that office with some other office of the city Introduced by Alderman Jones M.

Ewing. of the eighth ward. was by his request referred to the committee on charter revision. This course seems to be one that the members of council ccrycede as proper in the solution of the question of the city marshal' office which has been a bone of contention for some time In council. By th above means It Is proposed to combine the office with the tax collector or some other office now operated by the city decreasing the number of city employees but at the same time effecting an efficient administration of the city marshals office.

A communication from Mrs. J. M. Slaton. asking the city council to Join with the chamber of commerce the county commissioners of Fulton county and civic organizations of the city in brinsrlng about the erection of a suitable memorial to the heroes of this city and vicinity taking part in the war against the Huns was ordered flied on a motion by Alderman Harvey Hatcher.

Whether any action will be taken on this request at a later meeting is not known. The report of the finance committee. Including the comptrollers report. Involving warrants already drawn. was adopted by council.

Neither the question of Increased rates for the Georgia Railway ana Power company. nor the communications from the war labor board. which were tabled with a letter from Governor Joseph M. Brown upon- the rate Question. were mentioned no attempt being made to revive these matters.

No attempt was made to extend the privileges of the floor of council to officials of the power company. Neither was there any attempt made to bring the question of a bond issue for needed improvements be fore the city fathers at this meeting. This matter will be taken up at a later meeting however for the mem- rs of the city council are agreed that an Issue of bonds Is a vitally important matter as the finances of the city now stand. In fact. the sum of S350 000 has been anticipated in the finance sheet with which to pay for the installation of the new city pumps and should a bond Issue fail and it became necessary to take this amount of money from the current receipts of the city.

It would re suit to a calamity. as many of the most Important departments of the city would be compelled to shut up shop because of a lack of funds with which to operate. Th municipal ownership Issue which has been one of the live questions before council for some time In an unofficial way. was not brought officially to the body Monday afternoon. It Is believed that an attempt will be made within a short time to bring the matter before city council.
