SILVERSTEIN, city treasurer, who was slated to be city solicitor of Scranton, under Mayor-elect Fred A. Derby, not land the post after all.

Opposition to Silverstein, it is said, has developed among some of Derby's closest friends and supporters. Heading the fight against Silverstein is George Deckelnick, an original Derby supporter, and named as city treasurer by the incoming mayor. Deckelnick is said to be supported in his opposition to Silverstein by a number of other close friends of the mayor-elect. Silverstein and Mayor Jermyn have been extremely close during the entire Jermyn administration. Deckelnick and Jermyn have been unfriendly since early in his administration, and many are inclined to believe that is the real basis for the opposition to Silverstein.

Silverstein is not without friends in the Derby camp. Derby owes much to Mayor Jermyn, who placed hi3 entire city hall organization at the command of the mayor-elect in both the primary and the general election campaign. If the mayor insists upon the appointment of Silverstein there is a disposition to feel that Derby will be guided by the wishes of the mayor rather than the wishes I Deckelnick.
