Elliott Elected Council President
Coudersport's new borough council, meeting Monday night in the hose rooms for organization, rehired Robert T. Grabe as borough treasurer but tabled the resignation of John W. Mahaley, secretary-solicitor, until tomorrow night, pending further investigation. Mr. Mahaley had indicated he would accept the job again if his salary were increased about $1,000 per year.
Carl H. Roberts, Charles Upde-graff and John Karr were sworn in by burgess Mort. W. Levinson, who conducted the meeting prior to the election of James L. Elliott as president for the next two years. Mr. Elliott was in charge of the balance of the meeting which lasted from 8:00 o'clock until about 10:30.
Mr. Grabe, who. for years has served as trustee of the Schildeberger Estate as well as borough treasurer, will receive the same salary for the latter position $125 per year. He reluctantly agreed to continue as trustee of the estate after he had been assured that the borough will attempt to dispose of the two houses owned by the estate during this year.
Street commissioner Oliver Watson was re-appointed by the new council at the same salary, although he had requested an increase for himself and other borough street employes. Council members asked for time to study the budget before any salary or wage increases are granted.
It was also decided by the newly-organized borough governing body that regular meetings will be held the first Monday of each month at 7:30 in the hose rooms.
Committees named by Mr. Elliott include the following:
Street Mr. Karr, chairman; Mr. Updegraff, Mr. Watson and Tom Leete.
