GOVERN NMENT
Declares in Statement to Star That
Mayor Has No Opportunity to
Perform Constructive Work.

Mayor Cotterill will not be a can
didate for reelection.
While confident OF reelection,
should he run. the mayor, In q
statement TO The Star today. as
signs two reasons for his attitude.
The first and most important Is
that the moral issue" which in
duced him TO make the campaign
two years ago, no longer exists
The second IL that, owing TO char
| ter limitations of authority and
scattering of responsibility" the
mayor OF Seattle is barred from
constructive usefulness.
Had Made Up His Mind
Nothing In the mayors statement
OF approximately 1000 words indi-
Gates whether he will or will not
be candidate for United States
senator next fall.
The mayor had practically made
up his mind not to run for mayor
again when he returned from Italy.
he says
"AlI doubt was dispelled when
the city council indicated It's inten-
tion TO persist In the present plan
OF delaying charter revision until
after the March election" says the
mayor.
Predicts a Hard Time
1T seems that We are doomed TO
wade through four months sea
OF politics before the March cleo
tion, In order TO enter a three
months period OF charter revision
chaos after that election. from
which we will emerge into a new
campaign and election OF new Of
ficers under the revised charter.
The mayors plan was to have the
charter revision accomplished by
March and voted upon coincidental-
ly with the election of officials.
Recognizing the need OF charter re-
vision. Cotterill says he would
prefer the more useful opportunity
for constructive public service as
citizen charter commissioner
rather than as mayor"
He Has Enforced Laws
'If the moral issue had not been
at stake" says the mayor. Il would
not have accepted the office OF
mayor with it's charter limitations,
which in almost all save police mat
ters. destroy all chance OF con.
structive effort.
Taking up the work so well be-
gun during the year OF Mayor
billing, I believe II can now be
fairly said that In these three years
there has been established in Seat
tie. broad. solid. law enforcement
foundation for our civic structure
which cannot be shaken or remov-
ed. or even seriously threatened
by the assaults and conspiracies of
vice promoters.

"The moral issue of vice sup
preston has been settled In Seat
tie because II has been settled
right.
Even the public menace OF the
vicious pole-cat press is now so
thoroughly exposed In its degener-
acy that il is more of vice adver-
tisement than advocate, serving a
useful purpose In campaigns as an
automatic warning to fumlgate or
quarantine against those candidates
who receive it's support.
Seattle is not spotless, but II is
on the safe road toward moral
health and civic cleanliness. II the
