DESTRUCTOR CD. HDPELESSLYTIED Bond Tangle Threatens to Break Contract—City May Ask New Bids. City officials declared today that the 1 >estructnr Company, of New York. A ' uld not carry out Its contract to nuiid a combination garbage disposal and < lectric power plant with only the city’s moral obligation as security for the de fer'ed payments, I'nlers the city council will so change the contract that New York bankers will underwrite the proposition. II is expected .that the garbage disposal P’<>hlom will bo as unsolved as it ever "as. and that new bids will be asked. In order io get New Yorkers to finance the building of the plant \V. IC Itowd. representative of the Destructor < oinpany, said his company must re tain ihe title to the property and con trol of the plant until the last payment was made by the city: that, the annual payments must be made by February 1 of each year, and that the time limit in which io build the plant should be in creased from one to two years. This is a '-übstitute for the city’s mors] obii ga l ion Time Limit Extended. Iho time limit for the company tn begin work on the plant expired yes terday ("ounell extended the time for two weeks and referred the request for changes in the contract to the finance committee. Di \V. L Gilbert, president of the board of health, said that he saw no objection Io the changes in the con tract asked by the company and that if council allowed them, wo, k would be begun at once. But the council holds U $37,00(1 eerti field check of the Destructor t’ompany gtifit anteelng that the original contract will be compiled with. Some members of th*’ council are inclined to refuse any concessions. Aiderman A. .1. Johnson and <’ounciltnan Orville Hall were op posed to Ute contract at ihe first. Can’t Get Contract Underwritten. While It is illegal for the city to give anything more than a moral pledge I** abide by a contract for more than one year, this promise has been nego tiated by local financiers several times in the past. Tills contract is for a larg* r amount than any previous one ami provides for a municipal light and powiw plant in conjunction with Hie garbage disposal plant, which would cause ihe city to compete with the Georgia Railway A Power Company Tlte New York company has abso lutely failed to get local bankers to un derwrite Its contract. Its representa tive says the lompany can get its deal financed in New Yot k if tiro city will bind itself bv something stronger than a moral promise to pay the $326,000 "ithin the next four vents.
