Evidence presented on removal grounds for Mayor Walker
Samuel Seabury told the Hofstadter committee that Walker violated the city charter by holding bonds in a company that won a $43,556 traffic light contract. Seabury argued this justified removal under charter section 1533, while Walker in Detroit accused Seabury of unfairness and insisted the bonds were a mortgage, not a stock interest. This marked Seabury’s first hint at filing charges and at removing Walker, with further details continued on page 11.
