Move to Support Police Committee in City Hall Fight

City council ordinance committee led by Alderman W B Hartsfield plans to amend the present rule allowing police appointments to be made by the police committee without the chief of police nomination or sanction. The measure, backed by the committee including Aldermen York Ragsdale Wella and Woodal, aims to ensure harmony and public service interests. Attorney George C Spence indicated quo warranto actions may be filed against officers appointed without chief approval, as the Beavers administration tightens control and asserts the chief’s authority over department orders.
