MEMBER OF CITY COUNCIL
SAYS he IS IN THE RACE.
HAS PLATFORM. FOR BETTER
MENr OF CONDITIONS WHICH
HE BELIEVES SHOULD APPEAL
TO THE VOTERS.

DR.. G. A Klock is also a candidate
for the office of chief executive OF
the city Of Daytona and his an
nouncement as participant in the
-ace gives the citizens assurance of
merry. three-cornered fight for the
honor If UNFOLDING the dignity of the
city and issuing orders from the big
easy chair in the city hall.
AS in the announcement of Messrs.
Heymann end Zuber, DR.. Kfock has
some pronounced ideas of certain re-
forms which would he beneficial to
the city Of Daytona and his plat
form could be summed up in the fol-
lowing planks:
A rigid enforcement of the city Or
dinances.
Changing the city charter to admit
OF the appointment of a municipal
Judge 70 try all cases in the city
court.
Improvement of the sanitary con-
Gitions of the city.
The Organization of a board of
trade to boost DaytOna.
Better streets and parkage.
DIR. Kock believes there is room
for imprOv ement in the matter OF
iigid Enforcement of the city Ordi-
Iances aLt refers particularly to the
ordinance which was passed some
--ime ago saying the buildings in the
city may be numbered and amended
last summer to read that the build
.ngs must be numbered. This, in
the opinion of DR.. klock, is the first
step toward free mail delivery for
the city and the ordinance should be
more sigidly enforced than it is at
the present time.
The proposition of having change
made in the city charter to permit OF
the appointment of municipal
Judge, before whom all city court
cases should be tried, is one of the
ctmos.. importance to the voters and
citizens CT Daytona. DR.. Klock is of
the opinion that IN this way the
city ordinances will have a more
strict enforcement and that the
treasury CT the city will be enriched
b. fines resulting from cases which
could just as we'll be tried here, but
which are now turned over to the
county court, where the fines are
assessed and collected. In this con-
nection It would be possible for the
city council to designate that the mu-
nicipal judge should also act in the
capacity OF city attorney. The COM
bining of the salaries which are now
paid to tt e mayor and city attorney
for the salary of the municipal judge
and the added collections in fines
would result ultimately in finan-
| cial saving for the city.
Dr. nlock believes there is plenty
Of room for Improvement in the san
itary conditions of the city, particu-
larly the outlying districts and
| negro settlements, and that changes
| in this direction may be the means
Of preventing wave of contagious
| disease from sweeping over the city

CARNEGIE MEDAL
IS RECEIVED HERE
In Recognition of the Act of
Robert Lurty Who Died
Trying to Save Woman.

Robert Dexter Lurty, of Adamston.
received Carnegie hero medal from
Pittsburg Tuesday, which was issued
and presented as recognition to the
heroism OF Robert j. Lurty, son OF
Mr.. Lurty. who lost his life at Nell
sonyille. o.. in trying to save Mary
y. Marsh from drowning in high
waters there. The medal is very
pretty and Mr.. Lurty is proud OF
it.
The issuance of the medal appears
to have settled a disputed point in
the life of the deceased Lurty in a
way most gratifying to the family
and it friends, as it indicates that o
murder charge against the deceased
man had been thoroughly investi-
gated by the Carnegie Hero Fund
Commission. resulting in the exon
Grafton of Lurty. At Holcomb, this
state, in 1906. young Lurty and a
man named Rexroad had a fight, In
which Rexroad received fatal IN
juries. Lurty always claimed self
defense but the case never came to
trial.
Had the commission believed
Lurty guilty of the crime OF murder,
the medal doubles would not have
been issued.
