Duties of That Office Will Be Offi cially Looked Into by City Council at Next Session What are the duties of a city con troller's job in Harrisburg? What is the job worth? City Council at its meeting next Tuesday will take up those problems. The questions were raised this aft ernoon by City Commissioner Gorgas who said that, in view of the fact that a city controller will be elected this Fall, he thinks it only proper that Council should define these duties and fix the salary so that the prospective candidates will know what they must do and what they will receive for their work. Since the new form of government went into effect two years ago the city has. had no controller, this work hav ing been taken over by Mr. Gorgas. the 'Superintendent of Finance and Accounts. County Controller H. W. Gough who has never resigned as city controller, has contended right along that he automatically vacated the office when he assumed the county office. City Solicitor Seitz, however, has always contended that the place will officially be held by Mr. Gough until he formally resigns. Council decided to let the problem go over until next Tuesday when an opinion of Mr. Seitz on the subject will be considered. "3 To 0" City Council this afternoon voted on a new re-arrangement of its voting strength. This time it was "3 to 0." The vote was taken on the question of paying a bill of $55.01 for an ordi nance cabinet for the city clerk's office purchased from the Harrisburg Burial Case Company. Both Mayor Royal and Commissioner Gorgas de clined to vote on the ground that they were interested as officers of the com pany. Mayor Royal also declined to vote on the final passage of the Lynch auto mobile traffic regulations for the Mul berry street viaduct and the subway approaches, notwithstanding the fact that the Motor Club of Harrisburg heartily endorsed the plan. Mayor Royal said he thinks an additional traffic officer would be necessary to enforce the measure. Council to Have Vacation After next Tuesday Council will meet only once during July and August, the summer vacation period. Following next Tuesday's meeting the subsequent session will be Tuesday. August 3. The following meeting will not be until September 7, when week ly sessions will be resumed. One new measure was offered to day, an ordinance authorizing the pav ing of Clover street. The measures authorizing the establishment of a tax redemption fund, the providing for the changing of the width of Zarker street from Eighteenth to Twenty first were passed finally. The Gorgas measure requiring a certificate of ownership to accompany all interest coupons presented to the city for pay ment. was laid over until City Treas urer O. M. Copelin can be conferred with. By telephone the members of the Planning Commission approved the ordinance providing for the decreas ing of the width of Hill street from the Catholic cemetery to Thirteenth to twenty feet and this measure was accordingly passed finally to-day. v Girls Will Not Go to Camp on McCormick's by * Playground Enrollment Enrollment of McCormick's Island Sir! campers will not be made in play ground groups this season, but the camping party roster will be open gen erally to any girls of the city between the ages of 12 and 16 years and the applicants will be grouped from week to week regardless of the playground from which they register.
