Meier Should Resign!

LITER F. MEIER ought to resign at once as corpora

the office of mayor and at the time cling to this
other position.
The Star makes this observation in spirit of hos

Dean Miller would have resigned his University of
Washington connection had he stayed in the race.
Professor Hayden, when he filed as a candidate for
the city council resigned from the faculty. City Off
cals becoming candidates for higher office have very
properly in the past obeyed this unwritten law
