City Commission
Not Worried OUer
Recall Petitions

Talk Of recall petition does not per-
turb Mayor Paine Commissioners Ed
gar, Allen, Shannon and johnson in the
Least, according to their statements.
Jhey use almost the same expression in
discussing the matter and say very
frankly that they were elected by the
voters of Memphis to carry out Ahe af-
fairs Of the city government to the best
OF their ability and that II the people
are not satisfied and ask recall they
are perfectly willing to step down and
out and return to private life.
Practically all members of the city
. commission declare that their private
z business enterprises would be much
better off financially If they were to
return to private life.
The Edgar Morgan company would
be $4,000 or $4,000 better off each
year If | devoted more Of my time to
Z IT and less to the citys affairs" Com
missioner Edgar said.
Commissioner Shannon says that he Is
confident he can make more money at
his profession as certified accountant
than he can by working for the city at
$4,000 per year, and expresses a willing
ness to become a private citizen again
whenever the voters so decree.
Mayor Paine has told friends that
he spent twice as much last month be-
ing mayor than the city paid him, and
he doesn't figure that being the citys
chief executive is particular remuner-
atve.
Commissioner Johnson, discussing the
matter, said that he had given the city
his entire time and best efforts since
being elected, but that If the majority
of voters wished to put someone else
in his place he would resume his occu-
patton as linotype operator and felt
certain he could struggle along on the
salary.
Commissioner Allen is civil engl-
neer by profession, and he feels practl-
cally the same as the other commits
sioners about the recall.
