Casey, seconded by Ald, Mac- donald, decided to give the scrip system of issuing remuneration for relief work a month's trial. | The principal expected benefit ifrom the scrip. system is that the jyelief workers will be given the op- jportunity to purchase their re- [sae nts at any stores they wish latid thus avail themselves of the jlowest prevailing prices. Under the | present system, vouchers are issued from the City Hall on certain speci- ified stores. The only danger that of the council could foresee in the scrip system was that, because of lack of check, some money might go into wrong directions and abuses might develop. The suggestion was| made, however, that, in the event of abuses being discovered, the guilty persons would immediately be put back on the voucher system. | After sume discussion, the coun- cil unanimously agreed to give the scrip system a trial LONDON, Oct. 25:—The Ottawa is Te-| California hopes will manufactured r?
