At last a champion Of the people
has come forward. Walter Kanar,
candidate for the office OF mayor
OF the city OF Hamtramck, has al
ways been known as a champion of
the people. Each time any discus
sion has come up involving the peo-
pie Mr.. Kanar has always been
known to champion the cause of
the working class Of people. When
as councilman other council mem
bers would vote in favor of the
large and wealthy company, Mr..
Kanar would fight for the poor,
common taxpayer. And now, on
March 8. the people will have their
one opportunity to repay Mr.. Kanar
for the many times he has given
the people consideration.
On March we can all, who are
eligible, go to the polls and with
our one vote, we can show Mr.
Kanar how much we, the working
class, appreciate him and the many
things he has done for us in the
past.
Heretofore all the mayors Of Ham
tramck have been professional men
How can professional man under
stand the trials OF one who has
to strive and struggle for liveli-
hood? Mr.. Kanar is not profess
sional man. He is a member Of the
working class who by hard work
and perseverance is pulling himself
20 the top, and he understands what
1t Is to have to struggle for means
OF livelihood.
