Duncannon Councilmen Are
Called Useless Ornaments"
For Neglect of Duties

Duncannon, Pa, June 19.-Cer-
tain members of DuRcannon borough
council are scored by Burgess
Franklin E. Cook, for their laxity
in attending sessions of Council. In
a statement issued by the chief exc
cutive they are termed useless
ornaments" and the chief of the fire
department warned that IL he ever
gets word that all of the council
men plan to be present at the same
time, that ''it might be a good thing
to have the hose and plugs in readi-
ness in case of fire in the town
hail."
The remainder of his statement
says in part:
Should 1 purchase a piano to set
in my parlor and never have the
same played, 1 would consider it an
ornament or an expensive weight
to assist in holding the house in case
of storm. A pretty dish is much in
the same class.
"'1f 1 as chief burgess did not use
my efforts to benefit the people OF
the borough, 1 certainly would class
myself as a useless ornament. Sure
ly. l have a right to say that the
taxpayers of the borough can pride
themselves on having a few orna-
ments in the form of councilmen
who are very seldom present at a
regular meeting and rarely ever at a
special meeting"
