THREE COUNCILMEN RESIGN POSITIONS «Continued from’ Page One) auditor’s job, but said that he was not trying to get it for him, but simply asked him if he would ac- cept it if it was offered to him. Councilman Ralph B. Pinder took exceptions to some of the re- marks made by Dr. Warren rel: tive to the council trying to re- place Otto Bethel, sexton at the city cemetery, by Hamilton Pin-}° der, brother of Councilman Pin- der, and admitted emphatically and without reservation that he was trying to obtain a job for his brother. Discuss Expenditures The question of the expendi- tures made by the Board of Pub- lic Works during their tenure of office was submitted in a report read by Dr. Warren showing where there had been a saving of erganization, and this matter fur- nished another topie for the eve- ning, with several members tak- ing part in the argument. Another matter which displeas- ed the “minority three” was the removal of Mr. Freeman as chair- man of the finance committee, and appointed Councilman Cabrera to the place. Sam Hart also addressed the meeting stating that there were too many caucuses held by the councilmen, and said that the citi zens and taxpayers were getting “tired of the way things are being run-in the city.” ‘Norberg THompson aiid B. D. Trevor were renamed on the new board of Public Works. Stephen F. Whalton,' who was recently ap- pointed, tendered his resignation, which was accepted... The other three members ‘of the board are C. C. Symonette}’F. F. Hoffman and Ambrose W. Cleare. They were appointed when the council took office. Myrtland Cates, who was recent. ly appointed chief engineer at the water works, tendered his resigna- tion, which was accepted. This leaves W. A. Cooper in charge again. The council will, in all prob- ability appoint three new members in the next several days to suc- ceed those resigning last night.
