Mr. Zlzloman didn't believe In niak- ' inu a contract with the Harbor Asphalt i I'pany under any consideration. An appropriation of $111,000 for ropalra of I .isplmlt streets was expended by the Harbor company last year, Mr. Klzlo nian wi nt on to say, and tho streets are worst today than they were :i "ar ago. If the Harbor company i.iiiltf jitit the streets in a bad condl n.iii with $1S,OOU It could put them In a 'iy bad condition with $17,fiOU, was i In- burden of .Mr. Zlzlomau's urgu- llii'llt. Mr. Jackson said It would bo vicious legislation In approve tho asphalt re pair item. It was simply giving to a company that lino buncoed the eity star after year, a ton-year license to ontlnue the buncoing. lb also claimed the ordinance to i-pair the streets by contract had been Kiilroaded through councils, and ac cused its father, Mr. Keller, of bav ins been Instiumontal In pushing tho iiicasuio through with unwarranted haste.
