HE WANTS TO ASSIST
Asks for a Position Which Has Never
Been Created

William N. Price has filed a petition for
appointment as assistant, manager of the
free labor bureau. The applicant is In
dorsed for the petition by Mayor Snyder,
James II. Blanchard and others. 1t is quite
probable, however, that Mr. Price ls DOOM
ed to disappointment, as the council has
never created any such position as that APP
piled for and, therefore, cannot make such
an appointment.
The labor bureau department was orig
mated as joint benefit to the citizens of
the county and city, and the expense au-
.horized was 800 per month, one-haf to be
paid by the council and the other half by
the county board of supervisors. Isaac 9
Smith was on Monday appointed to the
managership of the department, vice S. M
Perry. deceased, and whatever help he may
need In running its affairs he will himself
have to employ and pay for.
