He . said he had received more contacts on this issue than any other requesting sup- port of the Code as adopted and that he planned to continue his support of it. However, he felt the type of treatment described.by Mr. Williams would force consideration of no further service to the community by many citizens. As a I member of the business community, he said, he was apologetic to Mr. Williams on I , ~its behalf. I I ~ I i !Mayor Anderson agreed with Mr. Keller and hoped those involved would heed his com- I !.ments. He fel t a person should be able to participate in public bodies and make 'deliberations without his ~ivelihood suffering. ; .... ~ . ~ .' "350 11/26/73 - e
