FORMER CITY FATHERS TO
BE PROCEEDED AGAINST
PERSONALLY
IN FIRE TRUCK CASE
Enjoiners Against Fire Truck
Purchase Case BOlstered Up
By Supreme Court Ruling
Sustaining Them.

Following closely on the heels O.
the decision of the supreme court re
versing the action of the ChancerS
court in permenantly disso!Ving tnt
injunction restraining the city from
purchasing the La France fire truck
in 1919, the enjoiners are preparing
to proceed against the former mayor
and councilmen individually.
Messrs. Galloway and Joltlston, at
torneys for the enjoiners yesterday
issued the following statement rela-
tive to their proposed action in the
case:
1--WE are authorized to state for
our clients that action will be
Immediately instituted against
the former members of the board
of mayor and city council indivi-
dually to compel those of the
board recorded as voting for the
purchase of the fire truck to re-
fund and pay back into the city
treasury the money they paid out
in violation of law in attempting
to carry out the contract"
The fire truck was purchased by
the city in 1919 and the following
were the members of the city council
at that time: Mr.. d. S. McClanahan,
mayor; Messrs. L. w. Stevens, G. Y.
Banks, L. A. Vaughan, Joe B. Love,
E E Chappell and Prof S. M. Nash.
Mr. Vaughan voted nay on the pro-
position and Mr.. Banks was absent
from the meeting. Under the law
these two gentlemen are relieved OF
any responsibility in connection with
the expenditure.
The supreme court holds that the
council proceeded irregularly IN its
action and that it had no right to IN
cur an interest bearing obligation
without first submitting the matter
to a vote of the people. The contract
originally provided for interest on de-
ferred payments, but this clause was
subsequently eliminated, but not on
authority and action of the council,
the decision states.
The complete text of the supreme
court decision is published in this is
sue of the Dispatch.

ROBERTSON ASKS
SALE OF ROAD
NOn-Payment of Taxes BY the
Southern Has Brought Up
Serious Problems.

Attorney General Frank Rober-
son has filed suit in the chancery
court Of Humphreys county, at Bel
zoni, Miss, for sale of the Delta
Southern Railroad company for taxes
due to the state, counties and other
taxing districts for the year 1920
The Delta Southern is simply a
branch Of the Columbus and Green
vile road, formerly the Southern
Railway company in Mississippi,
against which suit was recently filed
at Winona for the same purposes.
The Delta Southern rlmrs through
the counties of Leflore. Humphreys,
Washington, Bolivar and Sharkley in
said state, operating branch or feed
ing lines connecting with the main
line, or Columbus and Greenville. The
Delta Southern is, however, 4 separ-
ate corporation, though under practi-
cally the same control as the Colum-
bus and Greenville road, hence the
necessity for separate suit.
There is considerable interest de-
veloping in the situation. This seems
to be the first time in the history of
the state where railroad or other pro
perty Of such value has ever been
sold for taxs; and yet it seems GER
tain that sale for taxes will be nee
essary. There is some speculation as
to what the railroad company means
by permitting the property TO go un-
der the hammer in a tax sale.
All Of the property Of both roads
is known 10 be owned by the Southern
Railway System That it has been
there is no question, and
sentiment admits that
the assessment on the property is en-
tirely too high under the eircumstan-
ces.
What the outcome Of these pro-
ceedings will be is impossible TO guess.
