Opposite Newlin's Book Store Phone Blk. 81. 1115 Adams Av passed mayor signed an ordinance creating the office, the mayor's appointee, to "perform such acts as are needful and proper for the good government of the city," and to have such other powers as the- council might confer upon him. The ordinance also speci fied that the offices of business man ager and street vcommissioner might be held by the same person. ' It was decided that the business manager should have a 1tt to start with of S1J50O a year, which, is es teemed a dignified income in Clarin da. There was something of a rush for the job, but none of the active can didates got it The mayor went out side of the list of applicants and chose, for reasons of his own, a cer tain young man named T. A. Wilson, "No, Wilson has no conspicuous qualifications for the job," explain ed the mayor last week. He bad no special training for such work never had held a political office, never had made a striking success in any line of endeavor. But he was the type of man that, when he started to do a thing, he went at it hammer and tongs, forgot the clock and hustled, I didn't make any mistake. He has held the position since the first of last If ay, and I believe: he has made good to the satisfaction of every body." The Busiest Man in Clarinda. ' As for .Wilson himself, he is the busiest business manager in Clarinda, or any other city of its size, probably; which is not remarkable when it i3 remembered that he is eorae eight or ten city officers rolled in one. The Advanage of Dealing With One ;.. Man. The full oxtent of the powers to be invested in the business manager has not yet been fully determined in Clar inda, but they are likely to be in creased, rather than curtailed, as time goes on. The advantage to the residents in having to deal with but one man, and that man an active ex ecutive, when they desire small Im provements, repairs and the like, is highly gratifying. Direct action through one man has simplified tre mendously the routine of petty detail In administering the affaiirs of the city's upkeep, insignificant matters that formerly consumed much of the council's time and furnished oppor tunities for bickering and trading fa fors among the councilmen. And when questions of more serious im port arise, the mayor and the council have in the business manager an agent and adviser familiar with every part of the city and with every con dition affecting the life of the com munity. If there was no saving in the op erating expenses of the city under the plan of employing a business manager, there still would be good reason for retaining him," Mayor Peters asserts. "A city of this size necessarily pays small salaries for many office or job holders, and the result is that work is slighted. Under the old plan a $50-a-month job at- terested In the statement of R. P. tracted only $50-a-month men, where- Erwin, Peru, Ind.
