Commissiion-Manage Bill
A STATEMENT

The Times-Recorder has been
asked to publish reputation of
reports appearing elsewhere hint
ing at official corruption in the re-
cent investigation by auditors of
city affairs here and probable
grand jury consideration of the
acts of city officials. So far as
known there has been no intima-
tion of official wrong-doing or vi
olation of law other than unbusi-
ness-like handling of records and
transactions. The audit reveals
no scandals and few real surprises.
For the most of the increased city
debts increased assets of at least
equal value are on record and IN
existence. The present discussion
is almost wholly Concerned with
business methods to be adopted to
handle the present debt and for
more business-like system or hand
ling the city's affairs in the future.

/ move that the chairman appoint
committee to work cut plan of re-
financing the city so it can get on a
cash basis and stay there"
Mayor Sheppard interrupted to
suggest that such committee, if APP
pointed, be instructed to work in
conjunction with the mayor and the
council, which suggestion readily met
the approval Of Mr.. Dykes.
c. J. Clark criticized most those
present for failing to declare them
selves on the subject under discus
sion. "If we continue under the
present form Of government and pay
these debts as suggested by Mr..
Dykes" said he, "what assurance
have we that the debt will not occur
again? I have been in Americus for
22 years and the debt has been con-
stantly accumulating. Elsewhere the
commlsslon-manager form has been
tried and found satisfactory. The
system under which we are operating
has not been satisfactory. I'm for
it. | think it is time to make a
change"
Two Opposing Votes
At this point the chairman ruled
that Mr.. Jones motion to appoint
committee to draw charter changes
was precedence and called for a
standing vote. Very few failed to
stand On the call for opposing vote
two stood. The chairman declared
the motion adopted and stated he
would appoint the committee today
after comforting with Chairman War
ren. The announcement Of this COM
mittee appears at the beginning of
this article.
Alderman Poole rose to suggest
that it might be borne in mind by
those considering refnancing the city
that the present three mill special
levy for paying debts has only two
more years to run. being limited to
five years.
Mr.. Dykes renewed his motion.
Frank Lanier spoke in favor Of
the Dykes plan and explained the
fact that he had voted for the Jones
motion did not bind him to vote for
the charter change when submitted
should he decide not to do so. Frank
Sheffield made the same point. Al
derman w. E. Taylor declared him
self for the Dykes plan as of ths
greatest Importance to the city at
this time and approved the proposal
to change the plan of government.
Thos. Harold made the point that
to liquidate. the city's debts would
put it on cash basis again and per
nit great saving in purchases. lie
stated that at present dealers charge
the city top prices because they
know they will have to wait for
months to get their money.
The Dykes motion was almost
unanimously adopted and the meet
ing adjourned, subject to the cali Of
the, chairman.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1922-05-17

who was chairman of the councils
finance committee for number of
years, and who left the council last
January 1. Mr.. Poole said that while
Mayor Sheppard had gone into the
auditors report quite thoroughly, he
did not entirely agree with him and
his conclusions. Referring to the
street department cost figures quot
ed by the mayor, he said that the
cost of labor had decreased two years
ago and that all the street force labor
costs should have been reduced in
stead of increased to far the largest
figure of the period last year. He
said the council had had three mills
more to spend than any other council
ever had before, and had spent that
S51 600 and in addition $4,000 that
belonged to the bond fund.
Poole Cites Audit.
"Here is what the auditors report
says on this subject: 'As only a
small portion Of the city's expense on
street improvements was charged to
property owners, were these inn
provements properly financed the city
governments deficit for the period
would have been very nominal
amount in excess of the three mill
tax levied in 1919, 1920 and 1921,
to reduce the floating debt. This
levy increased the city's revenue for
the period covered by this report
$51,210.43; therefore, the actual
deficit for the period, disregarding
this additional tax, would have been
$102,21701.' l make the statement
that if the council had not taken the
bond money and the additional
mill levy it would not have gotten
anywhere.
81 tried for the last three years
to put the council on notice that it
was deeply in debt and had no mon
ey. | tried to get expenses down,
but failed in several attempts, and
got a resolution through with great
difficulty limiting the expenses in the
street department. We've got to cut
the cost of the street department to
limited figure if we are going to
save anything, but can not see but
what it will be as heavy this year as
last. My experience has been that
the city always spends more than it's
income. | am sorry the members of
the council have just walked up to
find the city is in debt.
GAS for the system, | don't know
what is best. AS we are going, we
will not get in any better shape. /
like all the members of the council
they are my friends. But the city
is not being operated in business
like form"
Alderman Allison interrupted.
"How long were you on the coun-
cil?" he asked.
Twenty years, F" replied Mr.. Poole.
"And | want to say that when Col.
Hawkins was mayor we had only
3 1-2 mills to spend. This council
has had 8 mills more than any other
ever had"
John Sheffield poured oil ON the
slightly ruffled waters. 'At meet
ing of this kind" said he, ''it is al
most impossible to keep criticism out
But the fact is that almost any body
of men will make mistakes. But the
whole problem looks simple to me.
