Macon City Council Returns Mayor's Appointment Power
Mason Ga December 1 Special. The Macon city council reconsidered last week’s action removing the mayor's power to appoint police and fire department members. The seven to five vote adopted a resolution to have a five alderman committee review the mayor's list for fitness. The mayor remains responsible for all current appointments but may face a purge by the committee. In Washington the currency debate centered on safeguards against inflation and the structure of the Federal Reserve Board amid opposition to enlarging it. Senator Root pressed against inflationary risk and several senators supported adding protections, while arguments about bank deposit guarantees continued.
