Lacon Democrat Attacks Adams Over Farm Superintendency
The Lacon Democrat criticizes Superintendent Adams of the county farm for not being a Democrat. Adams was appointed by the supervisors ten years ago to serve one year and has since been retained by the 12-member board due to fitness. Critics offer no charges, noting bipartisan support and that republican control removes the so called emergency. The piece questions the Holiday Publishing Co. of Buffalo, N.Y., and hints others may solve the issue in time.
