SPRINGFIELD, VT, Aug. ).
The establishment of the town man
ager system for the town of Springfield,
which dates from the coming here from
Keene, n. H., of John b. Wright for
the purpose in April, 1920, has proved
an eminent success. The results are
brought to notice just now by the resig-
nation of Mr.. Wright, to take effect at
any time previous to next January,
whenever the selectmen decide upon a
man to fill the place. The system will
be continued Although opposed and
criticized by some, slowly but surely the
system, fearlessly and capably admin
iStered has won its way with the ma
iority of the people. Instead of the an
nual deficit in different departments the
balance sheet last year resulted IN
cash balance in each department, aggre-
eating S43, $50 and the total indebted
ness of the town had been decreased $780,
$50 Many points of economy have been
shown. Mr.. Wright has occupied the
position of civil engineer, and the pres
ent good average condition of the roads
of the town Indicate his good judgment.
The selectmen and village trustees are
unanimous in the opinion that the pres
ent town and village treasurer, r. NJ.
NVilcomb. would be the best successor to
Mr.. Wright they could possibly secure,
and they have offered him the position.
Ills acceptance hinges upon his being
able advantageously to dispose of his
drygoodS business, in which he has been
engaged many years.

board could go under e1--Jting law.
