Criticism OF the stun clearance

set forth:
There is some question whether
it is to the interest OF the individ-
ual to force him out of his own

! under the slum clearance plan
homes are rented and occupants
cannot buy)
I'VE may be changing a slum
condition for a high class pauper
condition. as tenants will pay less

(The clearance plan provides
substantial homes al a fraction OF

if Abraham Lincoln ever saw q
tub before he was grown. Perhaps
if he had had more sanitary con-
ditions he would have been a bet

The report further pointed out
that the class of person to be ben

but can care for himself if given
the opportunity. He is willing to
work and will do so, without gov

In addition, the report cast
doubts that slum clearance homes
would be available to those the
,ity desires to help. Income bracket
requirements might shove many
back into previous slum conditions
The report pointed out, but did
not comment, on the fact that he
slum project would be tax free and
therefore no source OF income to
the city.
The alternative plan, which
Childers and the board was in

sketched as facing obstacles but
not necessarily insurmountable
ones. Tentative plans provided use

1t has been suggested that the
council might take stand on
Ham and Eggs e"
That is about as far as the mild
ness went. Councilman P L. Moore
and Harry Sones launched a spir-
ited attack upon Ham and Eggs
and ended by offering and second
ing a resolution opposing it,
I'm strongly opposed to Ham
and Eggs. personally, but I'll have
10 vote against that resolution! 8
doomed Councilman Blalaek. and
a roar from the direction OF Coun-
Gilman Gordon Scriven indicated
further opposition.
We haven't any right to antic-
ipate the peoples decisions Bla-
lack flared
NO Sirl" came from Scriven in
a voice that echoed but engulfed
Blalack. Taking a stand before
the people have decided is con-
trary to my idea of democratic
government"
From the other side of the table
where Sones and Moore stiffened
in their chairs. came:
why in tarnation haven't We?
When l took an oath of office it
was TO protect the people as l saw
fit This proposal is dangerous
We have a perfect right to warn
the people against a setup that
will bankrupt the city, It's vicious. :
Meanwhile. somewhat dazed by
the storm, Mayor Fawcett's head
was moving back and forth from
one side OF the table to the other,
synchronized with attack an d
counter attack, like Il spectators
head at a tennis match Finally
it was too much for him and lac
chimed:
Don't you think it's vicious"
Scriven and Blalack returned:
We're 'agin' it, as individuals
But we don't think the board has
any right to dictate, as a board
what the people should decide
Blalack Soloed:
It's just as though we passed
a resolution favoring the reelec-
tion of Gordon here, next spring.
We haven't any business telling
the people what to do!'
Then Scriven took the air:
Personally, if it passes, l think
some way will be found to stop ii.
1t would paralyze business. BUT,
some good has emerged from every
crack-pot idea. We have social
security because Of the string of
pension plans!"
Like a lad who has set off a
string of firecrackers when he
meant to ignite only one, Mayor
Fawcett tried to still the storm.
I'VE shouldn't so on record un-
less we are unanimous" he said.
How about withdrawing the mo-
tion?" Moore and Sones withdrew,
unconvinced and Blalack and ScriV-
en- relaxed.
Sum and substance: no hits, no
runs, no errors.

the United States are one people,
of one mind, one spirit, one clear
resolution, walking before God in
the light of the living"
Mr.. Roosevelt declared his willing
ness to "ascribe an honorable de-
sire for peace to those who hold
different views from my own as to
what measures should be taken to
protect the United States from
war"
II trust" he said, that these
gentlemen will be sufficiently gen.
erous to ascriDe equally lofty pur-
poses to those with whom they dis
agree.
Let no man or group in any
walk of life assume exclusive pro-
tectorate over the future well-being
of America-because I conceive that
regardless of party or section the
mantle of peace and of patriotism
is wide enough to cover us all.
Let no group assume the ex-
elusive label of the peace bloc.
We all belong to it,
