Section 81 of the proposed new city char
ter gives the 30 Hinky Dnk councilmen the
power to amend or repeal any ordinance or law

Under the Hinky Dink system, the council
will have the power arbitrarily TO overrule the
peoples vote on any measure after two years.
THE HINKY DINKS WILL HAVE
EVEN MORE ARBITRARY POWER IN
THIS RESPECT THAN THE COURTS.
The courts must at least declare a measure
unconstitutional before they override the peoples
vote.
But the Hinky Dinks will need no excuse

Whatever. They will act according to their own
free will
If the council can tell the people that their
votes don't count, what's the use of having the
ipeople vote at all?
The present charter gives the people them
selves the right to change their vote. But that
didn't satisfy the Hinky Dink crowd. 1t was
too much power to let the people have, they
concluded And SO they wrote the dangerous
and menacng section 81. The SPECIAL IN
ITEREST GANG SLIPPED THAT PRO-
VISION OVER.
Maybe this one crooked little section ex-
plains what DR.. Matthews means when he refers
to "the persistent political activity of CERTAIN
