FINAL DECLINAT|OV
Informs Mayor Park That
Private Business Prevents
Accepting Inspectorship.

Formal refusal TO accept the appoint
ment of chief smoke Inspector was
made by o. w. OFT, mechanical engineer,
in letter sent TO Mayor Samuel G.
Park yesterday
Mr. OFT writes that lie would be glad
to be of service to the city in private
capacity, but points out that ii he as
sumed a public office his private prac-
tise as consulting engineer would be
seriously hamperod and curtailcd and
that in trying TO attend 10 both duties
he would be subject to criticism.
II was Mr. OFT who suggested the
creation OF a smoke bureau and aided
in the preparation of tho ordinance
which passed several days ago, He was
the choice Of the commission for the po.
sition Of chief inspector at salary OF
$500 n year.
In conference with the mayor Friday
afternoon Mr. OFT eaid he could not at
ford to devote all his time to the work
for $500. 1t was suggested that per
haps the department could be so organ
iZed that an assistant chief could b,
engaged who would relieve Mr.. OFT iron
actual inspection duty. This woulC
leave him free to act in II consulting
capacity and at the same time continue
his private practice. Mr.. OFT promlsct
to consider this proposal but in the let
ter to the mayor yesterday he informs
the chief executive that he has definite
| ly decided not to accept the position.
Mayor Park said yesterday that il

about for another man. Several apnll
cations for the position are now befor
