Two former Bennington selectmen demanded the resignation of Joseph Higgins over a controversy involving hiring his son Ronald as town accountant for 10 000 dollars. They argued the move violated an anti nepotism policy Higgins helped create while defending the board's decision despite public confidence concerns.
