Charles C. Killingsworth, instal led as chairman by President Tru man when Archibald Cox angrily' i resigned yesterday, told a news ; conference that the President’s coal wage decision "has undeniably added to our difficulties." j It was Mr. Truman’s reversal of I the WSB, which approved only $1.50 of a negotiated $1.90 daily pay increase for miners, that caused Cox’s departure. MAY HEAR TODAY Killingsworth said he expected to hear from the industry representa tives on WSB later today. Their departure, killingsworth said, would place the problem of the WSB’s future functioning up to Mr. Truman and Economic Sta bilizer Roger L. Putnam. Killingsworth said he hopes the board can continue, and if it does I the coal case should not be used I as a standard for future decisions.

New Vote Asked On City Manager Plan The Town of Dunn, which has had four city mana gers and one acting city manager in lgss than four years, ! may soon get to vote on the controversial issue again. Petitions were being prepared this morning asking the city council to call another election on the issue. C. T. Latimer, one of those behind the movement, said today the petitions would be circulated by a number of prominent citizens who want to see the system abolished. Under the law, all that’s neces sary to secure a vote Is for 15 per cent of the qualified voters to petition the city council. It can also be accomplished by an act of the legislature. Dunn has about 2,000 registered voters so only 300 names would be needed on the petitions. WANT IT NOW Those wanting a vote are reported to favor an immediate vote instead of waiting for the municipal elec tion in April. “We want action now,” one of them said.
