Mayor Large announced Wednesday that he boa considered no one for the council position yet. He said that be would be glad to receive auggeationa. It appeared that labor would put for ward s man. The third ward ia the home of many railroad men, who have Bought representation. -Members of the council, with the exception of Large, who waa abaent, met at fi o'clock at the city ball. Be fore the meeting waa called to order the council met behind locked doora. Wilder waa called in and offered the building inspector post. He first re fuaed. Later the council positively re fused Wilder further consideration of Rundlett and asked that the mayor tnke the building job. Acceptance of the proposition made the reaignation necesaary. During a recess for dinner the councilmen obtained the water board job for Rundlett and it waa this that paved the way for Wilder accept ance of the building job. After an other secret session of half-hour du ration the council was called to order. The council was In doubt regard ing the mayor's acceptance. Wilder said: "Boys, you've got me atumned. Thia has all happened so suddenly I don't know what to think." Ilendcrahott soul a abort time later: "I'll tell you, Howard, it's like a checker game and it's your turn to move." The mayor then resigned. Before the matter was disposed of the mayor and council participated in a warm discussion of the Unemploy ment fund queation, on which the mayor and council have been some what at outa. The mayor said he didn't approve of Mra. Ady'g charity work plan, saying that she passed out doles too much without asking men to work. A fund ol SotJO from boxing commission re ceipts had been placed with the city treasurer and administered directly by the mayor. The council was unanimous in tne belief that Mra. Ady should have a lnrge share of the money and Coun cilman Reid once atarted to move that the whole fund be turned over to the police matron. The council ex plained that it had cut her funds abort in the budget because It ex pected the boxing receipts would go to her work. Compromlsa Readied A compromise was finally agreed upon by which $400 will go to Mra. Ady and the rest will keep Wilder' unemployment program working for a week. Men are working on road con struction and maintenance on Sklu ner's butte and Hendricks' psrk. Council members and Mr. Wilder stated Wednesday that the reaigna tion was caused In no way by the mayor's stand on the- unemployment administration or other differences. Fred Lnmb was elected president of the council at Tuesday's ineetinf. Mayor Large and ex-mayor Wilder both issued statements on taking of fice. Large's was aa follows: "I appreciate very much the confi dence shown me. No disrupting chang ea in ndminlstrntivo policy or person nel is contemplated at this time. With the continued splendid cooperation ol the council I hope to make 1032 K successful year in civic business ad ministration." Excerpts from Wilder's atatement to the council follow: Expresses Appreciation "I wish to express my deep appre ciation of the cooperation nnd assist ance of the council, which has made the past three years' administration ss successful as 1 deem it to have been.

Our aviation field has graduated from an emergency lauding field to an up-to-date airport. "In relinquishing my office I have the very great aatisfaction of know ing that I am succeeded by the offi cer who has been at the head of and hss largely made possible the extrica tion of the city from ita financial problema. "At the time I waa elected I re ceived the hearty support of a largo section of the electorate of the city, and in closing this statement I wish to aay that aince my election I have bad the support of practically all the electorate and I would fail in a proper appreciation if I did not ut this time express the aatisfaction that this has given me. The manner in which the people of the city have generally aun- ported me and my policiea makes me wish to express my thanks to them and to sny that their approval is what I have most earnestly sought through out my administration."
