Several Frisco Agents Lose Their Jobs
Reported in railroad circles twenty one Frisco agents have been discharged as auditors prepare to review. Charles Prottiman long with Neosho Missouri tenure 32 years included in the wholesale dismissal. Local agent W H Deck says he knows nothing of others’ discharge but has received notice of his own demotion and expects the auditor to arrive. Deck’s removal stems from alleged duty failures by a subordinate, whom he had urged to dismiss last fall, a move to which he attributes his own loss. Deck, once the Frisco’s most popular agent here, plans to leave for another road after his checkout. The city will miss not only Deck but his family.
