Meanwhile, it began to look
as if the city treasurer's job
might go begging for candidates
at the November election. City
Treasurer Ruth Bathiany said
some time ago she will not run,'
but no one else has indicated
publicly an interest in succeed
ing her-in the $135 a month
part-time job.
' - Interesting Question
- What might happen -if no
candidates should file poses a
subject for interesting specula
tion. Mrs. Bathiany could serve
until her successor qualifies,
which could be for another
term if no immediate successor
qualifies, but she has indicated
she wants to leave the office
and would probably resign
under those circumstances.
No councilmanic candidates
have as yet appeared .on the
horizon. .'.
