Players’ Comedy to ‘Draw Big’ Society Will Turn Out in Force v»v +•* +•+ Brilliant House to Greet Artists ASSERT CITY OFFICIALS Payment of the Entire Cost, Even if Other W ork Is Sacrificed, Declared To Be Only Solution of Tangle Eollowing Court Ruling. Loading city officials declared Thursday that the oye way to sottlp the crematory tangle was 1o pay the entire cost of the new plant this year under a new contract with the De^trucor Com pany, of New York; and they further asserted they believed coun cil would pursue that course at a sacrifice of other special im provements. • ■ ' Agnes Scott Collegej MW VIEW JACKSON 10 ENTER : FACTORY EXHIBIT BANKING BUSINESS Mayor Woodward declared he was willing to buy the Destruc tor Company's plant on a real business basis. Alderman Cand ler said the city must have an incinerator this summer if ev erything else had to be sacri ficed. Councilman Claude L. Ashley favors buying the plant straight out. Councilman George H. Boyutcm agreed with them. City Attorney James L. Mayson. after carefully studying the decision of the Supreme Court holding the old contract illegal, said it was the sim plest plan. Agree Plant Is Necessity. All agreed that Atlanta must have a new garbage disposal plant this summer at all hazards. They argued th^t 'it' was equally as obvious that the only possible plant was the De structor plant. This plant will he completed within 30 days. The means .of hqving it completed and put into use are as follows: To buy it straight-out. T<» submit the old contract .to a vote of the people, when it will have to he approved by two- thirds of the registered voters. Far-citizens to lend the pur chase price and. without any con tract. take their chances on being repaid by Council. For the Destructor Company to complete the plant without any contract and trust to the judg ments of succeeding Council to complete the payrpents. Attorney Mayson said the compli cations srurounding the latter propo sitions are so great that the first plan practically was the only sure way. Has $125,000 Set Aside. Council has $125,000 already set aside for this year's payment on the crematory. There is $71,000 available in the June sheet. Councilman Boyn ton said to-day that the tax books showed that $50,000 additional could be added to the increase of revenue. Money for various improvements is still unspent and Council has the right to recall these appropriations. Also, if a cash payment is to be made, it is said the Destructor Company will re duce its original price by some thou sands of dollars. The old contract provided for a 1100,000 electric power plant in con duction with the crematory. But the coqncilmen say this feature can be eliminated for the present, in view of the serious garbage situation. Expect Mayor to Balk. A special meeting of the Board of Health has been called for Thursday night to consider the whole matter. The Finance Committee will meet Friday morning to make up the June budget. It is expected that by the time Council meets Monday afternoon the whole matter will be decided. But the chances are. small that the mayor will agree. Samuel Evins, attorney for the De structor Company, announced Thurs day that the company would proceed With the erection of the plant. The Suprenjc Court order does not go into effect for t£n days ami by that time Council probably will have made a new contract, thus averting any in terference in tlie ■ progress of garbage disposal by the court’s decision. >.

He aqd Councilman Boynton agreed to start a subscription of $1,000 each by which citizens would buy the plant 'ancl take their chances on Council.re paying them.
