Mr. Wasielewski then wished to make a few remarks as the new president of the Commission. He said it might be construed in the press as a slap against Mr. Oxian for the recent transaction of the Commission.

He said he will not tolerate any slaps against Mr. Oxian personally in the future concerning this particular problem. He said the Commission will work with the City Administration and any department of the administration for the further betterment of the city and county. He said if there are any questions, then Commission members should come to him, not try another way.
