RECAL[ERS SAY
WORK IS DONE
Necessary Signatures Obtained
May be Filed at City Hall
Soon.

Petitions for the recall of Mayor J.
S. Konkel bearing over 1900 signatures
will be filed with City Clerk r. E.
McKeague within few days. it was
said today by leaders prominent in the
movement.
Most Of the petitions which have
been circulated by those active in the
present recall agitation have already
been sworn to before notary public
as the law requires, and the other pc
titions will be properly endorsed at a.
meeting to be held tonight.
By having filed the papers last
Thursday the recallers insist that
there can be no question about their
complying with any possible law fix
ing time limit in which the petitions
must be presented. The commission
government law fixes no limit within
which petitions must be filed. The
general recall law fixes a limit of
sixty days. AS the first signatures to
the petitions about to be filed were
secured on December 1, it is contended
that the legality Of the petitions can
not be questioned. <'' :.
For time nothing was heard Of the
recall movement. and it was supposed
that it had been abandoned until it
was announced last week chat over
l,l0O names had been secured. Since
then additional names have been OBJ
tanned, it is said. = - -:
If the election is not delayed by an
appeal to the courts or some other
action, it will be possible to hold it at
the same time as the regular spring
primary and election for Supervisors
and school officials. ~ :"
City Clerk McKeague announced
Tuesday that names Of all persons
ho
published. This is new procedure
and was not followed at the last re-
call election, but is allowed by law,
according to McKeague.

it hopes for largely increased patronage.
These hopes should be realized. The peo-
pie of Vermont, recognizing the value OF
the campaign, should make concerted eff
forts to assist. Every man, woman and
child is financially able to carry on the
campaign by purchasing these seals at
one cent each; and those with larger
pocketbooks can do great service by
buying large blocks of the seals, even
though they do not use them. In Barre,
fer instance, there should be particular
interest in furthering the campaign be-
cause of the fact that tuberculosis is the
chief cause of mortality in the commu-
nifty. Storekeepers, office men, granite
and others should pur-
chase large blocks of the seals; others
should take them in smaller numbers.
But all should help. The seals are on
sale at the drug stores in Barre.
