Hancock Department
CITY MANAGER
ASKED To RESIGN
Council Calls on Stockly TO Sur
render His Office

AT the close of the regular meeting
| of the Hancock city council last even
ing, an executive session was held The
session was called primarily for the
purpose of laying plans To reduce the
operating expenses OF the city and to
try To raise money to pay ontstandins
bills. After IA long and heated dis
cussion, General Manager Stockly was
sent for by the council and asked to
resign, as the council felt that the
expense of hiring q general manager
was more than the taxpayers of the
city could afford.
No fault was found with Mr.. Stockly
personally or with the conduct of his
office, Eut the council felt the salary
of the general manager was too heavy
a load for the pay roll The expense
of collecting the garbage and ashes
also was attacked the council feeling
that tn" cost of making the collec-
tons, $l47 per month, was altogether
too high for the benefit received. The
general manager receives $3.50 per
illblllll anu lilfSt lNb llflllS tlbllf l'Il-
resent an expenditure of close To $I0O
per month, or approximately $500"
per year.
When the matter was put up To Mr.
Stockly he did not view il In the
same light the council did. both from
personal ana public spirited reasons.
Mr.. Stockly declared he had his work
wen under way and was averse to
having it interrupted at this point. lie
also declared that to resign now would
injure his reputation, and that he
could not consider the proposition Be
fore leaving office, Mr.. Stockly de-
cared he wanted q chance to issue a
statement, showing the work done aud
10 put the matter before the council
in that light.
There has long been feeling i'm the
city that the office Of general manager
was too expensive "A luxury. If the
Office Is allowed To lapse at the end
&C the year for which Mr.. Stockly
was engaged. ii is likely that the
old plan of having council committees
look after various departments of the
citys work will be revived.
To care for the outstanding bills the
council transferred $4,000 from the
general sewer fund To the other funds
which are ovcrdrawn No new sewer
york Is To be undertaken in the near
future and the upkeep of the present
system can be paid for out of the bal
ance which remains on hand. The
city also viii he able by borrowing
