 The S, GOO death limit should be re- moved and other Legislation written jorities should be wiped out in the in terest of the people.

For years eI have given my best efforts freely and with pleasure in the service of the city and with of instances I was not a seeker and even strongly urged that be excus- ed on the ground that had contr1- buted my full share to municipal work. Upon insistensa- however, l accepted, ana nave given my best ef- forts in the line of honest and eff cfent administration. If elected at the polls, and with a great Republican protest recorded I feel confident this will be banner Democratic year, 1t will be the first reTnuneratfve office have ever held.
