Do you think it would be a very dignifed proceeding for the seven councilmen to resign or change their minds even if every voter in. Strat- ford was against them, until such time as they had done, what they considered, their duty?
 Of course, I. personally, believe the councilmen, I should say the and not politicians. by politicians I mean the word in the modern accept ed meaning but, aside from that they would be foolish to rush for cover the head.
 The counciImen, I mean the seven councllmen, seem to have acted with much more dignity and business-like decorum than their ''constituents."
 IT the council changes it's views to suit the whim of a community whose mind is mOlded. not by them but for them, then. why have a council why not to take a house ohouse canvas on each question?
 Most of the councilmen's "constit- uents" have never read the charter, and I'll bet the author of that long communication in another evening paper hadn't read the charter before he wrote it Cthe communication
 The people are to blame, as usual, for allowing themselves to be swept from their feet by the sentim ental twaddIe of those who would guide them to go, like a lot of sheep.
