Following the motion to reconsider a mo tion was mad and carried by the same vote placing the McGovern resolution on file.

The law also provides that if the mayor returns a document anjlgned within thla time. It shall have the asm effect as If ha signed It. Thla th maor did. so he approves the resolution." Major Iwhlman admit returning the resolution unsigned. He aa L did thi after he had been told by Councilman Funkhouser that the council had passed a motion, rescinding Its former action. "Mr. Funkhouser came to my office and told me a motion had been passed, rescind ing the resolution. I then returned the document unsigned. If there 1 a mistake.
