ly say. tlSre has been 8 minimum amount of political interference. l will say to you today whose priv ilege 1t will be to serve under MT. Weld, If you arc interested in mak. ing his administration a complete success, leave politics for election day Don't mingle politics with gov ernment They are two different matters.
 Remember. those Of us whose privilege 1t Is to serve in public of- flee are placed in office to work for the public good. A house divided against itself cannot stand. In unity there is strength. Our new mayor, MT, Weld, has the conn- dence of the voters and I believe he goes into office with the entire city harboring a deep desire to havo him succeed. l am. sure he Is willing 10 exert himself to benefit the city, and l am sure there is not man or woman in this room whose aims are not identical with those of MT. Weld.
 "The city is now in good condition financially. Our educational system has been perfected to a high decree. Our streets are In good condition and our parks are we'll developed. A splendid feeling exists among our people. With conditions as they are, l am glad to retire and turn the reins of government over to an- other. feel much the same as q laborer who has put in an honest days work, who has given his best effort and has seen the accomplish ment of his task. He Is 6 peace with the world as he goes home for an earned rest. Today go home, in sense for a rest which I hope have earned.
 Before I retire there is but one request I wish to make of those who will succeed m. It has always been my aim to do whatever is possible for the children of our city. We have given them parks, swimming pool and a skating rink. But that is only a drop in the bucket. Let us continue along the same lines and elaborate on this program wherever 1t is possible. Remember, Q dollar spent for the welfare of our children of today who are our citi5ens of to- morrow, is a good investment.
 Tt is now my privilege to pin on you the badge Of authority. It is your symbol of authority use 1t. Do not be nasty in making decisions: remember there are always two sides to every question. Do not be swayed by the wishes of politicians. I wish you the greatest of success and Godspeed."
