minded and have the initiative to
demand it. I have made a thorough
study of the Camden Plan, which
Is in operation. today in Camden,
New Jersey. The Camden Plan,
unlike other housing projects, both
Federal and State is a source of
revenue through taxes to the
community. Through this plan or
a similar one, Dayton can elm
mate slum areas without a cost
to the tax payers of the city. The
Camden Plan or a similar plan
can be carried out with the aid
of the Federal Government, if the
people of Dayton will get behind
such a move. BY making possible,
an American standard of living to
low income groups-as insured
thru adequate housing, Dayton will
have established a precedent
which meets the National Emer-
gency.
6. The nation is committed to a
policy of providing an arsenal for
democracy. Dayton must assume
its place in the defense program
and contribute it's skilled labor
and available production facilities
for the defense of America. The
failure of our present City Com
mission to provide leadership
towards making an effective and
wholehearted contribution to the
National Defense Program has
resulted in serious unemployment
and economic dislocation for many
small businesses and manu-
facturers in our community. I
firmly endorse a program of pro-
viding employment for every Day.

the employees in Stacking con-

the City of Dayton.
/. There should be a closer re-
lationship between the city govern
ment and the people of Dayton.
a. The present form Of city
government is in great need
of revision. There is an acute
need for the people OF Day
ton to take a more active
interest in the affairs of their
city government, to stop the
continuous demand for higher
taxes.
b. A complete investigation to
be made of all the various
departments of the city gov
eminent. I feel that all opera
tons of the city can be fl
nanced from revenue, and
that Dayton operate on a
paying basis.
C. Full publicity to be given on
all proposals of the City
Manager. An understandable
explanation Of the city bud
get be given the public an
nuaIly. I recommend that the
departments of b~udgeting,
city planning and the per
sonnet administration of all
departments be modernized
and kept on a basis abreast
of the times.
z. I firmly believe in municipal
ownership of public utilities.
"A. Through municipal ownership
of the light and gas facilities,
cheaper lighting, modern
cooking facilities, and heat
ing could be available to the
average citizen of Dayton.
b. Through municipality owned
transportation facilities the
maximum amount of service
at actual cost would be pes
sibIe.
3. Improvement of traffic con-

traffic control system must

to the City OF Dayton.
4. I stand for equalization of all
city services, for all sections of
Dayton.
a. I subscribe to the policy that
all employees of the various
branches of the city services
be brought under civil SER
vice, all appointments to be
made on merit and ability
and not on a favoritism basis.
AL promotions i'm all branches
of the city services are to be
made ON ability, regardless
of race, color, creed or politi-
cal affiliations.
b. The situation today regarding
certain city services, IS that
one section of the city re-
ceives the best. I firmly be-
lieve that this favoritism
should be eliminated.
] will work to the end that
all sections Of the city win
receive adequate city SER
vices, such as lighting, gar
bage and trash collections.
c. The elimination of all disease
bearing and smoke laden
trash dumps in the city limits
and its envirions.
5. I ann a staunch advocate for
he elimination of all slum areas
IN the City of Dayton. We all
know there is a serious need in
for the erection of decent
homes for low income groups.
You and I know that slum areas
are a breeding place for the
spreading of diseases. Sub

WHAT ARE YOU?

Are you an GctiUe member,
The kind ooho would be missed
Or are you Just contented
That you are on the list?
Do you attend the meetings
And mingle aDith the flock?
Or do you stay at home,
And criticize and knock?
Do you take an active part
To help the Work along?
Or are you satisfied to be
The kind that just belong?
So come to meetings often
And help ooith hand and heart
Don't be just a member
But take an active part.
Think this over, Brother;
You knoaD right from Wrong
Are you an Gctive member,
Or do you just belong?
