"'"y?r Moere's veto of thnt measure, politi cally speaking, has Jockeyed the Com bine majority In City Council e a standstill or into what Councilman Dcvejln would describe as a cul de ""some of the mere hardened observers of Council have nn Idea that the Com bine Is rapidly tlcvcleplns.it serious case of cold feet and is Retting ready te asstince the ruffled feelings of the 2000 taxlcab drivers who say the bill would drive them out of business. Thee men. in a great ninny instnnces, are of mere or less inlluence In ward and division politics. In City Hall today the rumor per sists thnt for one reason or another the Combine may allow the Mayer's veto te stand nnd then try te save Its face by adopting dome ether tnxicab regula tions. Important te Combine This situation Is important te the Combine, which has an eye single te the mawiralty election of next year. In preparation for that event the Combine s nlwnys quick te pass hills ever the Mnver's veto and te work out a con dition in which the Mayer would np pear te be discredited. The reason is hat the Mayer may be a factor of con cen slderable weight In the l-' mnjeralty campaign. Outgoing Mayers usually hnve a neg ligible inlluence in that direction. Hut the (Vmblnc. no nmlterliew red it .seen when thinking of the Chief hxwutlve. i.. i ..r ,.nr- nrnetlcnl IllCII. Its lenders recall thnt Mayer Moere took m the slump in the State for (.lfferd 1 n-1 (l clint in the primary campaign. H'7F i i1. M Mnerc mill .IOSCDI1 it (Irundy nre' friend. They recall thnt Mr (Iriindv was a distinct political as set te the Ferester. And without reck oning en what Mr. Pinchot may think of the matter, i einiiuie irauvn imu- the chnlr at llntrlsdnirg. Team Werlc Inching When the tatlcab veto reached Coun cil, however, the Combine mnde no at tniint te miss the bill ever the Miner's veto In fact, the leaders, probably because of I he absence of Councilman put it mere nbiuptiy. were net quite sure what they ought te de alieut it. Ceunclliiinn Mniehurner moved te have the bill laid ever for one week. If that motion hnd been adopted, the death , knell of the bill would hnve been sounded, because the I.liiiebiirner motion made no piovislen for fuither consider- lit lull. Thereupon Councilman Onffncy. one of the quick thinkers In the Combine, stepped up with another motion te post pone nctleii for the present. Then plans were lnhl which may result in n special session of Council net Tuesday when these interested will be heard in public meeting. Thus it will be possible for Council te pass the bill ever the Mayer's veto within the time limit of seven days. Hut several obstacles nrlse. One is thnt Councilman Hall is ill if Mr. Hull is net able te attend next Tuesday, then It Is quite likely Council will net Inke action within the seven-day limit and the veto will stand. This' is by no means an intlnintieti that Council would be glad te tnkc advantngc of that special nnd perseunl condition. Needed One Geed Pilet Further, the hearing planned for next Tuesday, assuming the hearing is held en that day, mnj develop points which would lend the Combine te deslie (dinnges In the bill as new written. If any changes are made, however slight, then the veto must stnnd and a new bill will have te be Intinduced. Combine lenders would like te sign articles with a first-class deep-sea navi gator, who could successfully steer them between the Scylln of the tnxi drivers' wrath and votes nnd the Charybdis of evenldlng the Mat or. If they allow the veto te Maud, then the Mayer wins t big tlctery nnd that would be gall I nnd wormwood te the combine, If thev i override the Mnver. then tliey will lie busy dodging or nt least appeasing tnxi I drivers. And te make matters worse. if they fly against the veto, the combine strengthens the political position of the Mnver in relation te the coming May (iraltt primaries.
