R. Post should knowingly or ignorant
ly allow itself to be used for partisan
purposes. 1t is our belief that the SOL
dfers' preference law is in the interest
Of all soldiers and was not intended to
give one comrade lifelong job to tho
exclusion of other comrades equally
worthy but that so long as the old SOL
diers are preferred, the spirit of the
law has been carried out. And we be-
lieve that in the appointment of Com
rade Dorothy the board of supervisors
are within the spirit and the letter Of
this law.
Resolved that copy of these resolu-
tions be furnished the board of super
visors and that copy be furnished the,
Ottumwa Review and that copy be
furnished the Ottumwa Courier with a
request that it publish the same SO that
this matter may be placed in its full
and true light before the public.
