SAYS THAT
CRITICISM
IS UNJUST

Miss Virginia Brooks has answered
the critics who have accused her of be-
Ing a notoriety seeker. In an address
before the Mothers Club in the public
school building in West Hammond she
asserted that the criticism emanated
from the vice element of Hammond
that desires to oust the reform Mayor
at the April elections.
The young reformer, who has been
living for several weeks at the home
of Mrs. John F. Bass at 743 Lincoln
parkway. Chicago. said she would re-
turn TO West Hammond and plunge in
to the Mayoralty campaign and again
help defeat the foes of order
The vice element in West Hammond
want to discredit the work of reform
and to undermine the settlement work
that has been going on in West Ham
mond for tn last two years." said Miss
Brooks. They want to defeat the
Mayor for reelection and put their
own creatures back into office. But
they win fail. 1 viii help that failure
By returning here to aid in the re-elec-
tion OF Mayor K. NJ. wosczyzski who
has given us a clean administration
and will do so again.
If l had acquired money for my ef-
forts here / would not have the cour-
age to come back here and face YOU
good women OF West Hammond I am
game fighter. but / am not game
enough for that. The real purpose of
these notoriety charges against me is
to discredit my work and the work
that YOU mothers have been doing. /
