He made the comments to
the Summerville-Trion Rotary
Club at noon Monday at The
Tavern, Trion. Mayor Cash
was introduced by Larry Hen

ears ago have become reality,
Ke said. Among the ac
complishments for which the
city is due credit, he said, are:
— Providing utilities so
Hays Correctional Institution
could be built at Pennville,
— Encouraging the con
struction of Ingles shopping
center.
— Developing the town's in

funded the widening of U. S.

paying for most of the utility

The matj?'or also criticized
what he called ‘“‘negativism bg'
some é)eople.” Constant at
tacks discourage people from
gettini involved in govern
ment, he said.
TIPS
An article dated in
September, 1953 was read by
Mayor Cash. Entitled, ‘“‘How
to Prevent PrOfiress,” the 10
items listed in the report were
read by the mayor. They
follow:
1. Organize a group of
citizens, as a ‘‘Committee to
Keep Our City What It Is.”
2. Disband the local
chamber of commerce.
3. Vote down all bond issues
for schools, parks, street im

provements, sewers and water
systems.
4, Avoid givinfi any
oreraging funds to the city
planning commission.
5. Advise merchants and
property owners not to risk
any money on major building
improvements. ’
6. Warn all the motel,
restaurant, and gas station
operators and taxi drivers not
to say anything favorable
about the city to strangers.
7. Allow no travel expenses
for city officials to attend con
ferences or institutes where
!:(llxey would be exposed to new
ideas.
8. If there is a city manager,
abolish the position or cut the
salary.
9. Get the local press to
play up political feuds and
other civic discords and to put
such stories on the association
wires.
HAPPENING HERE?
“A lot of these thir:fs are
happeninginour city and coun
ty,’ Maror Cash told the
Rotary Club. *. . . These olg'pe
things take away from produc
tive things.” Continuing, the
maf}_'or said, “It does make it
difficult” for local officials to
govern effectively.

come up with ideas and sugges-

Cash went on to say that
the city was not in favor of
