a naayor-or rather a business manager
some business man Of recognized
honesty and ability ft to take hold Of
the town and run it just as he would
run a successful corporation. He need
not be a Sumter man. If Sumter can
find a better city manager outside the

choose him, even If he were 10 hail
from Atlanta Ga, or Sitka, Alaska. He
will have complete supervision over the
other commissioners. who viii be re-
sponsible to him, and will have to do
what he tells them. and he can be re-
moved from Office himself only by
