ence with local conditions, if elected
to serve on the Board of Supervisors
would be able to render service to
the taxpayer that would be of some
uomical administration of municipal
business.
The municipal business for the next
few years requires that the Board OF

men familiar with conditions and with
experience in. handling business prob
lens, few of which are as follows

roads.

believe that good roads are the
best asset of the city-by good roads
| mean roads that are built to stay and
constructed of such material as will
stand the traffic to which they may be
be subjected, and constructed alone
scientific lines, so that the under
ground utilities can be taken care OF
without tearing up the main surface.

of the city will permit. = :. -
] believe in maintaining publ,
parks for the benefit of the people
and that such places for rest and re
creation should be opened up in con
gested parts of our city.
A crying need of this city, from &
tourist resort point of view. is fol
places of rest, recreation and alsc

effort should be made at once by tht
city and county government to estab
lish these places.

going further into municipal require
ments.
