stalemate and the compro-

The Chief’s statement, read
by Mayor Boyd, denied char-

cited by the manager. In
connection with claims by
the city manager that the
chief had gone over his head
to members of the council,
Barns said he had talked with

the council’s head--"to our
bosses"--byreading his state-
ment in public before the
council had been informed of
the charges. He also criticized
Ward for allowing information
about his upcoming public
statement to leak to the gen-
eral public before council
members had been informed.
Clapp also joined other
council members, Bob Kin-
ney and Grisso, in asking
Ward if there was a possibility
that differences between him
and Barns could be worked
out. The th re e councilmen
indicated a belief that both
the police department.Barns and Ward were doing
and in answer to "inquiries
about the police department. "
Discussion became heated
at points and the city man-
ager was quizzed at length
about his charges and his re-
quest that Barns be dismissed.
A number of citizens voiced
their own views and a peti-
tion bearing about 24 signa-
tures was presented to the
council in behalf of "the
city manager and the city
manager form of government."
At one point Councilman
Billy Bob Grisso, saying he
believed differences between
the two men could not be
ironed out, made a motion
to follow the recommenda-
tion of W a r d and that t h e
chief’s resignation be accep-
ted. The m ot i on died for
lack of a second.
After the petition was read,
Mayor Boyd read two letters
written by area law enforce-
ment men who vouched for
Chief Barns. One was from
the county juvenile probation
officer. Both letters spoke of
excellent cooperation receiv-
ed from Barns.
In reference to policies al-
ready set down, Mayor Boyd
told the gathering that a
chart showing the chain of
command and a line of com-
munication had been entered
in official minutes following
a discussion months ago. The
chart shows all department
heads responsible to t h e city
manager and the manager di-
rectly responsible to the
council. The Mayor sugges-
ted some of the problems re-
sulted in a lack of communi-
cation.
Mayor Boyd also explained
that hiring and firing of de-
partment heads was to be
done by the city manager with
the "advice and consent of
the council. "
"This is the way we're op-
erating now and until we
change it we’ll continue to do
it this way," the mayor said.
Councilman Jack Clapp, in
reference to Ward’s claim
that Barns had been insubor-
Home Association and the dinate, asked the city mana-
State Department of Public
Welfare, dealt with the re-
sponsibilities of the nursing
home and state welfare work-
ers under this new program
which became effective on
January 1, 1969.
"The new program is de-
signed to place the patient
in the nursing home that of-
fers the level of specific
care program that the indi-
vidual needs," stated Burton
G. Hackney, Commissioner,
State Department of Public
Welfare.

"a good job".
Councilwoman Velma Smith
stated she felt the whole mat-
ter was a "slap in the face"
of the council. She abstained
on a vote to table the matter
for discussion at the next
meeting Thursday night (to-
night). Voting for the motion
which was made by Clapp
and seconded by W. A. Fan-
non was Kinney. Grisso voted
against the motion.
In any event, discussion did
not die and after further ex-
planations and statements of
positions, the council went in-
to closed session and worked
out the compromise.
For the records, the state-
ment probably will be read
at the council meeting to-
night and entered into the
minutes.
It includes the following:
"Neither man will please
all the people of Burleson all
the time. This is a physical
impossibility. But, from the
conversations which the coun-
cil has had with the two men
inclosed session, we feel
that there will be a real at-
tempt to provide a coopera-
tive attitude not only with
each other, but with as many
Burlesonites as possible. "
"Both men will continue in
their respective jobs. Under
the present organization
structure, Mr. Barns is a de-
partment head directly re-
sponsible to the city mana-
ger. Points of contention,
should any arise in the fu-
ture, will be discussed be-
tween them and if unresolved
will be brought before the
council. We as a council
have pledged our support to
the efforts of both men. This
does not mean that we will
be a rubber stamp for all re-
commendations, but that we
will seek to support them
when we feel it would bene-
fit the growth of Burleson.
We sincerely hope the people
of Burleson will do the same. "

Ask-IRS-—
Q -1 received my tax forms
in the mail but my son didn’t.
Why is that? He started work-
i n g last summer and taxes
are being taken out of his wa-
ges.
A - A tax return is mailed
to everyone who filed a re-
turn for the previous year.
Your son would therefore not
receive a tax form if he star-
ted working in 1968 as you
indicate.
Copies of the 196 8 tax byterian Church education
forms and instructions are
available at local IRS offices
as well as many post offices
and banks.
Q - If I file my 1968 re-
turn by the end of January
can I forget about the fourth
installment of my estimated
tax?
A - Y e s, if you file your
1968 return by January 31
paying any balance due at
that time. But don’t forget
that 1969 declarations must
be filed by April 15.
Q - Last year I sold some
stock I had received from my
father’s estate. Do I have to
pay tax on this money?
A - You will only have to
include in income any in-
crease between the value of
the stock at the time your fa-
ther died and what you sold
it for.
The amount of the increase
will have to be reported as a
capital gain on Schedule D.
However, ifthe stock decrea-
sed in value the loss may be
of $42, 420. Amounts placed
on building permits in Crow-
ley are conservative and to-
tal worth of the buildings is
actually higher, said Mayor
Harry Teeter.
In addition to homes and- than 10 new houses a month
have been built. Population and Advertising,
figures on the city limit signs
are nowhere near correct.
- The signs say 582 people live
in Crowley. Estimates now
are up to 2700.
The end is not yet in sight
as developers continue to o-
pen up new streets and an-
nounce plans for new homes.
