No Suggestion For Solution No suggestion as to how Superin tendents Bowman, Lynch and Taylor— the departmental heads affected— could provide the work or the money was made. Commissioner Lynch de clared that contractors couldn't work In the cold weather, and that it was impossible to expect them to go ahead unless the city provided money for a "force account"—the extra sum which would be added to compensate the men whom the contractors could take on at the city's suggestion. This would require a change in the specifications however, according to Mr. Lynch, so that immediate assistance would not be forthcoming at any rate. Council agreed the work is needed for hun dreds of men in Harrisburg and asked THURSDAY EVENING. Mayor Royal to suggest some plan for action. The Mayor had none. So the Mayor's resolution was laid over until yesterday afternoon when it v.'as pass ed unanimously. And yesterday Mr. Lynch offered what will probably go down in city history as the Royal buncombe resolu tion. This directed the Mayor either to suggest a way to-provide the work or to admit that his own resolution was simply "political buncombe." Hence the astonished chairman's rul ing: Mayor Rules Out Resolution "I declare the resolution out of or der," he stated, "on the ground that the superintendents of public affairs and finance, the autTiors of the meas ure of yesterday, are not acquainted with the work of the heads of the other three departments." For half an hour the same question that started such general discussion Tuesday were retlireshed out again— the Mayor endeavoring to show that he really knew what he was talking about, Commissioners Lynch, Bowman and Taylor carefully showing him that he didn't. The Mayor angrily declared that he wasn't guilty of "political buncombe" but that if anybody was, It was the fnajorlty councilinen. lie insisted that he liad offered his own measure in absolutely good faith, actuated solely by the desire to provide work for the unemployed. He said he believed the city could readily spend the additional money that might be necessary in or der to Ktart work at once and the money would be "well spent." Find Way If Money Were Available "Well," said Mr. Lynch, "we've started, all of us want to do all we can to help. I think every department has gone to the limit to provide work this year. Hut we can't go ahead in this cold weather. You've suggested that some way be devised; now you sug gest the way. You provide the money." Mayor Royal: "Why you've got the money. Something like sixty thousand dollars for sewers." Mr. Lynch: "You're right, we've got the money—and we've got to spend it legally. That's what we're going to do." Messrs. Lynch and Taylor both re minded the Mayor that he had evi dently been making another play for publicity, that, without consulting the departments affected, he had gone ahead with the preparation of his reso lution. "In five minutes you could have called all of us togethei* and we could have talked it over, nut you didn't propose to do fhat,"declared HARRISBURG TELEGRAPIf Mr. Lynch. "Talk of jilaying poli tics! You're defending that action." The superintendent of streets added that he didn't propose to start any work in cold weather unless council ordered it. Did Try Cold Weather Work "Couldn't you try it?" the Mayor asked. "We did try it—are now trying It— with sewer construction in Seventeenth street," promptly returned Mr. Lynch. "And the contractor has had to quit." "That's equally true of the new en trance and roadway to Reservoir ob served Mr. Taylor. "Well," expostulated the Mayor, "If you didn't think my resolution was a good one why didn't you vote it down?" "Why T didn't say the suggestion wasn't right," replied Mr. Taylor, "I only asked for a feasible plan." "That's what we want to get at," cut In Mr. Lynch, "a feasible plan." The Mayor: "Then suggest some plan." The Reason For late Work Mr. Lynch: "I want to say that every department went the limit this year in taking on men. You started this, it's up to you now to come across with the plan. Do you know of any body starting this work in this cold weather. That is unless they failed to linish their contracts in required time and are now bnly working because they are penalized for every day over time and each day's delay means money to them. That's true of the construction of that new building at Tenth and Market streets. The job was to have been done by January 1. ' "You give us $5,000 or SIO,OOO and we'll take care of the work and pro vide employment." "But you've got plenty of money." Fur the City's Host Interests "Yes," quickly returned Mr. Lynch, "I have —and I'm going to spend it for the best interests of the city, too." The Mayor declared that Mr. Lynch had made no request for additional money the previous day. "Why cer tainly I did," replied Mr. Lynch. "Perhaps," addeed the superinten dent of streets, "I didn't specify the amount, but I said 'force account.' " The Mayor declared that he wasn't familiar with the work of the other departments on the Improvement jobs. "Why," said he, "what do I know about your contracts?" "Why you've voted to approve every one of them," returned Mr. Lynch, "that. Mayor, is a matter of record." Then Mr. Lynch appealed from the chair's decision on declaring his resb- FEBRUARY 11, 1915. Ilution. Mayor Royal again ruled on I the resolution: Vnollicr itrasnu "I ruled it out," said ho because it is (not germaine to the question and.re-* I fleets upon the members of council." Messrs. Bowman, Lynch and Taylor voted to sustain the appeal and when the question on the Lynch resolution was called for, the Royal buncombe measure became a part of the city record by a vote of 3 to 2. Commissioners Bowman, Lynch and Taylor voted "aye." Commissioners Gorgas and Royal voted "no."
