VILLAGE PRESIDENT RAPS
PEOPLES PARTY CANDIDATE.

Declaring that it is most important
to the community that the Village
Board of Trustees be harmonious. in
view of his experience with a divided
board during the last year, Village
President Ira a. Kip, jr,, of South Or
ange, today issued a statement, in
which he advocates the election of the
Citizens candidates for members Of the
Village Board over the Peoples party
nominees at the munioipalelection next
Tuesday. lie states h a the Citizens
representatives do things, and charges
men high up in the eounsels of the
Peoples faction with having stood in
the way of improvements to the village.
The first duty of a village official
is toward the entire village he said.
"Secondarily-and sometimes even as a
part OF his official obhgation-he has a
duty toward the party with which he
is affiliated and from whose represen-
tatives he derives his Official support.
Il have been a Citizens party man
for ten years. because it has. seemed to
me the party of action. Its representa-
tiNes do things. 1t "a not until the
tltl"eiS party came into power that
the village obtained the eWer system,
so long urgently needed. Many, who
are row high in the councils of the

aided this result, but l have always
been proud that my first administration
accomplished that desired end against

case in which the Citizers' have proved
themselves Worthy of public confidence.

jority of tle really progressive men IN
the village have been of the Citizens

there are none of such among the Poo.
pleis adherents In fact. one of our
most valued board members was elected
last year by that party, and the vii
lage has been a great gamer by his

small tribute to the Citizens policies
that he has felt compelled. a large part
Of the time. to indorse them against
