GREENEVILLE MAJORITY TAKES CONTROL OF WATER BOARD At the organizatjon meeting of the wa- ter board Thursday evening, with four of the five members attending, Hugh Blackledge was elected president, dis- placing Reuben S. Bartlett, who has been president. The four members of the board present were Mr. Blackl Edward Crooks and Patrick F. Bray, all residents of the Greeneville section of the city, and Mr. Bartlett, who isa West Side man. Arthur E. Story, the fifth member of the board, was absent from the metting, Charles W. Burton wag reelected su- pervisor, Lewis R. Church reélected as cashier, Miss Maisie H. Maloney book- keeper, and James W. Semple inspec- tor. Ewald R. von FHornig was elected auditor. It is intimated in some quarters that the change of president is the result of Mr, Bartlett's opposition to a propesal made soon after Mr. Burton was elected supervisor to increase his salary from $1,800 to $2,400, and to other salary raises that were proposed at that time. The question of raising the inspector's salary was brought up again at the meeting Thursday night, it is stated, but has been deferred for a time. Mr. Bartlett, it is understood, has also aroused opposition in the board by his advocacy of economy in operating ex- penses in the coming months through dispensing with some of the three or four foremen who are drawing salaries of $1,750. The work ahead -of the depart- ment now, it is clalmed, is not enough to call for the services of so many foremen.
