FULLER IS FIRM
HOPE PINNED TO
COUP Of SOLDIERS
Pledge Breakers Prepare
Statement for Vets to Sign
on PruSSianiSm and One for
Lawyers on Constitution.

Something has been going wrong in
the camp Of the opposition to the city
manager plan for the past few days.
Some Of the members Of the coterie OF
pothouse politicians have been c%irCulat-
ing the report that Senator F. D..
Fuller, who stated to The News Scim-
itar that he was unalterably in favor
OF the city manager bill, would he held
IN leash by a certain large financial
institution, not the largest, by IN
means, but big enough, with its cor
porate affiliations, to make II an influ-
entail factor. Senator Fuller stated
Wednesday night that he had not
changed his views.
Some of the same crowd, perhaps It
was the same one. has been warning
his friends to watch for a statement
signed by returned soldiers de-
claring that they nave put down
Prussianism and they don't intend to
come back TO Memphis and have the
same thing saddled off on them by a
lot Of men like Bishop Gailor, Or, Will
hanson, Rabbi Fineshriber, Or. CLARK,
Wilson Mallory and Bob Ellis.
Not on your life, They are on to
the curves Of these politicians, and
they are going to line up with Bob
church. Charley Quinn. Harry True
and gentlemen Of that type, who have
no AK to grind,
The SOLDIERS statement" has been
prepared for several days. II Is said
TO be a corker. II is in the language
Of the eloquent orator who talks Of
dcathless valor and 7-cent car fare, OF
undying fame and dollar gas. The
public has become pretty well familiar
with the soldiers statement before the
soldiers were found to sign II. But II
has been signed and witnessed, right
in the mayors office, II is ready for
release and may be turned loose on the
public any minute Those soldiers VIII
never know how bitterly they feel on
the subject unless they are given an
opportunity to read their statement IN
the newspapers.
