"I remind Ihe mayor lhat It Is right of every American, hcther he is a taxpayer or tax ollcctor, to seek public office," Ir. Bristol said, "but It is oh- lous that your personal polili- al arrogance overshadows this ight." Last week, Mayor Moore an- ounced that he was naming ewis Scarpa, a Republican al- crman from the Fourth dis- as the representative to ie Fine Arts Council.

The ap- pointment resulted from request ly Chiirlene Peel, council chairman, for an nldcrman- ie delegate, (he mayor said, Mi'.

Stating a the recent appointment by the mayor is to be condemned, the Democratic Town committee chairman said that "we believe that art has no politics, and that appointments should go to the mosl qualified man regardless of party affiliation."

Led by Minority leader Edmund Measom, the Democrats continued in the fashion they scl at the first aldermanic meeting last month when they said their purpose was to "produce positive ideas and recommendations" and to "innovate and explore." Mr. Measom, supported by his fellow Democratic Aldermen, criticized a budgetary allocation transfer of $9,300 for capital and non-recurreing expenses, at the request of Mayor Clifton A.
