WOODWARD FOR
REFORM, THEN
TAX RAISE

Mayor James G. Woodward de-
clared Wednesday that he was op-
posed to any bond issue or increase in
the tax rate until some radical re-
forms were made in the City Council.
He said a more businessiike attitude
on the part of Council as a whole was
necessary, and that the privilege of
making this adjustment would be in
the hands Of the people at the fall
elections when four Aldermen and ten
Councilmen are to be chosen.
His statement is particularly Sig
nificant as an announcement Of the
big issue in the fall elections. The
fight will be against the faction now
in control of Councdl-charter re-
forms against present conditions.
Also it is an attack on the efforts Of
a number of officials who are trying
to provide a means of securing more
funds. special committee of Coun-
Gil is now at work to report on the
advisability Of bond issue or an in
crease of the tax rate.
Mayor Charges Waste.
II haven't any fight to make in this
matter" said the Mayor. but the
people of this city are not going to
give the present Council any more
money.
There has been waste in the ex-
penditures of the last 100000 bond
issue and of the regular taxes. Who
does not know of the faulty work on
sewers and the crumbling school
houses?
Council defied the demand Of a
mass meeting of 5000 for charter re-
forms. More than $500 signed post
cards insisting on these reforms-a
greater number of voters than nomi-
mated me for Mayor. Yet Council
turned a deaf ear to them.
THE matter will be in the hands
of the people in the fail elections. The
new charter that Council will refer
to the people then is only new in
name, except for the Jokers."
