Ordinance to Mr. Thompson for comment and opinion. Mr. Thompson
advised that in his opinion the Ordinance as written would be
impossible to administer. He thinks that we all know the intent
of what is wanted in the Ordinance but that technically it does
not say what it means to. There was discussion of the matter
in which it was brought Out that the; sponsors of the petition
could take it back ,and re-write the Ordinance so that the hours
will be stated correctly and have the petitions resigned,, or
set the election up with the Ordinance as written and if same
is approved at election, try and straighten out the hours by
amendment. The mattef having been duly considered Mr. Moore
moved that the Ordinance as proposed not be adopted on first
