letter To'The Editor

Dear Editor: . | 1 don't understand why the city council is planning to a. ,dopt a City Manager Form of , Government.
 Kodiak showed only 1885 persons within the corporate limits of the city in the 1850 census. l signed the petition circulated by John Gibbons calling for a vote on the city manager plan. l did not indi- cate that 1 favored such a plan by signing but felt that it should be brought before the voters to decide if we want that type of city govern ! ment.
 l am against spending any, more money to administer the city affairs. The city clerk has three or four assistants to do his work now. All he does is sit behind a big desk and issue orhers. 1 feel that if Jack Hinckel is elected mayor he will hire his friend Lee c. Bettlnger as city manager or else hire Hedloff.
 Does the taxpayers of Ko- dlak want to increase the city payroll in this way?? Joe Ker- rigan and Basil Clark are surely going to be elected councilmen... Do these men favor a city manager form of government and if they intend to appoint Bettinger or He'd , loff city manager?
 Bob Blair has been "bally- hooing' himself for the one year term..... Does he intend to insure the operation of his pin ball machines for the next year?
 If you will withhold my name l will appreciate it I do not want to suffer reprisals for my statements I realize that the Kodiak Paper will be blamed but didn't you once state that you wanted letters from your readers?
