They pointed to an ordinance which states that in such a case no city official may receive such money from'a city job.

He declared that he worked on the reservoir at times but received no The mayor, moreover, as that he would: not discuss the * ity that he had lent the to the ocntractor who did the work The contractor declared muu money had been borrowed an uncle.
