SYSTEM OF ELECTION
What system of election should be used? Mr J. Gregory asked at Wednesday's meeting of the Bay of Plenty Savings Bank. Should it be by ballot or by nomination at the annual meeting? Mr T. H. Muir said he preferred to retain the right to elect — or fire — a j president on mer.it. He did not like any system where, because a position carried social prestige it was spun around , among members. This meant that anyone who held his seat long enough would eventually become president. It also meant. said Mr Muir, ; i that an organisation could be saddled with leaders not capable of handling the tasks involved. Th-e bank board did not take any decision at the meeting but will reconsider it later.
