Wish Job Onto Kelly the attempt to save his 8, Brodeck resigned. It was up to the other two com missioners to appoint his successor. It was a ticklish job. There were all kinds cants. And in the meantime Kelly was trotting about the state placing powder orders and casually noting of appli. through the papers the political turmoil in the elty tn which he has lived 22 years. Why not Kelly friends suggested. And then some friends suggested it “IT had no axes to grind,” Kelly says, “I was selling powder.” Appointed Commissioner And so, without Kelly's know! edge, be became a formidable can didate for the appointment. Two weeks after he was notified that he was a candidate, Kelly was appointed. Brodeck, as commissioner of pub- le safety, had appointed a chief of police. Kelly thought he could handle the job himself and save the town that expense. So he's been chief and active head of the pollee department for the past three months. A Division of Opinion But even Brodeck’s resignation and Kelly's appointment fatled to pacify the trate recallers. The re- call against the mayor and Com- missioner Thompson relentlemly went On, and they were voted out of office, Thus Kelly was left to boss the city hall himself. There seems to be some division as to how to fill the places occupied by the recalled of. fictals. Some say them himself. | Others say there must be a new election held. Kelly Calle an Election | So Kelly, who doesn’t appear to be stuck on the boss job at all, in- troduced an ordinance fixing the day of the primary election for July 28, Kelly seconded It. Kelly then called and nayes. mous. Kelly voted for the ordinadce. And Kelly signed it. If the voters give any of the can- didates a majority vote, the pri- maries will also be the final elec- tion. If not, the final election will be held two weeks later. Door Open to All He's a well-built, broad-shoul- dered, affable man, is Keily.

Maybe some other time. Drop in again.” Kelly," his friends declare, will learn better after a while than to invite job seekers to call on him again “Mayor Kelly,” they call him, and they can't help smiling. “Sounds queer that old Kelly should be mayor with so many politicians try- ing so hard to get the job.” Gets Only $2,000 a Yeaf Kelly is 50 years old and a bache- lor. “Maybe I wouldn't mind being mayor and city counct! all at once,” he says, while his eyes kindle in merriment, “if I could get a com- bination salary, too. But I don't, you see.” He draws the salary of commis- sioner of public safety, $2,000 per year, And just now, no one in Everett will dispute that he earns it.
