Mr. 0'Shields ther, raised the quest3on of the iimited r,otice given the Board for the

Tuir. Beaty,after expiaining his positJ.or,, made his departure) and it was agreed by the
-- Board to postpone further coi.sideratior_ of the iease ui.1:il Ivionday, October 22S 1951.
The followiiig writter, statement was presented by Iulr. Ha7i, arid Mias upon motion of
Nr. 0'Shieicis, seconded by ivir. Davis, adopted:
tODuring one of our budget sessions ba4 in
he had figured out a pian that he fElt vJOU1U ?
the couuty as a whoi e.
His plan vaas that we give him a fu"' time
and the oolici.tor. 'riis principal duties to bP
ca.ses, alin,oriies , court costs; etc.
Juiy, Recorder 5TUith drop?ed in on and said
vork wonders for his court as well as for
mai. to work directiy under t:b.e fiecorder
the fo''owing up of aelinquent s:on-support
At that tima we were lead to believe thai the job wou7d not on?y be self sustaining,
but wouid a'so snow us an it_come iar in er.cess of what vre have heretofore recei.ved in
the fiecorders Court.
After much ciiscussiou vae agreed to give tv;r. Smith's plan a work-out for a peri.od oP
. six months,vaith the tu,derstanding that if it was not -a PaYing investment the speciai court
job wouid be terminated. The sum of 0,600.00 was added to Recorders Court budget to cover
aii expenses coi.nected with the job.
-- The Recorder toip us of a man he thought would admirab]_y fili the place, AMr.Yuiiiiamson,
a City Folice Sergeant2 that he hed had some taik with re?ative to the duties of the nevr
, job. Ilir. Smith was given pern;ission to put Mr. Wi'liamson to work.
But by the tin;e tvir. Smith got aroiind to finai arrangements, fuir. R'illiamson had
decided that he didr.'t choose to taxe the job. And the vaay it iooks now it would seem that
it is we''l for the cour.ty that l?ir. Williamson did not come with us--aYid for these reasons:
? Mr. Beliamy, our Cour.ty Attorr.ey, says that uuless some legl.slative act is passed
a uthoriring the Reeorders court to pay ior the services of such an officer, the County
wouid have to pay for this service and receive no monetary gains. '
Therefore, I wish to make a motion that since there is no visib'te profit to be made
by the Cotu,ty, that we revoke ar.d r.ullify our action to create such an action.

; iv;r. Davis brought to the attec_tioci oi the noard that the County Home was without an
