Macintosh for Chief and Mayor

Judge Kenneth Macintosh for
chief of police!
By all means, let us have him.
The idea seems almost an in
spired one. 1t can very well be the
key to our whole distressing mu-
nicipal-vice-mayoralty problem.
1t will not only solve the imme-
diate difficulty-the lifting of the
quarantine from Seattle by thoro
cleanup of vice conditions
but it will settle also the perplex-
ing question of who the next mayor
should be.
Let Judge Macintosh take hold
of the police job and make good, as
he can and will do, and he should
be the next mayor of this city by
acclamation.
We need his type as mayor of
the city in these war times.
In ordinary times, Judge Mack
intosh would never think of accept
ing the job of chief of police.
But these are not ordinary
times-and Macintosh is big
enough to recognize that fact, even
if he has to become a policeman for
the time being.
Macintosh for chief-and for
mayor! A happy solution, indeed.
He's a refreshing type for this mo-
mentOus time.
