The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-08-17

incompetent, a device which pro- tects them against the group which believes that might is right. Even if this were true, it still is the basis of all things which guarantee us the four freedoms:
 Without quoting the Ten Con- mandments, it is from them that the present successful democracies have received their strength and their aims for the future.
 It strikes me that one of the most encessary of all practices when dealing in city, state or national government is the observance of tolerance. All of our laws should be made with this in mind. Human frailties will be with us until the end of recorded time and 1t is essential that each of us becomes a self ap- pointed helper and keeper of erring brothers and neighbors. Above all, when managing city, we should never lose our sense of humor.
 City, as well as national govern ment, should fight against unem- ployment by helping employers as well as employees.
 We should keep in mind that the pay check of the worker is the market of the world.
 From this regular pay check, dir ectly, or otherwise, comes the taxes which pay public servants who should keep in mind their respon- abilities and remember that in a city of 10000 people that they have about that many bosses.
 AS the mayor of city, l would stress that the education of the children and training for the youth of this country can prepare them for adult years and give them the mental tools which will permit them to work at useful jobs and occupy their rightful places in society. This phase of American life cannot be given too much consideration.
 believe that the parents and the churches should be the sources of the spiritual training and when this type of education is as great in ef-- feet as the education available through the schools, the resultant product is splendid citizenry, re- gardleSS or creed or SeCC.
 Because environment controls the destinies of all of us to great ex- tent, it is my belief that every town and city should provide healthy re- creation for all persons of all ages, but especially for children. Healthy bodies usually are accompanied by clean minds and logical thinking. When this is in evidence, there IS little or no crime. The rearing or children certainly is more important than the careful raising ot blue- blooded animals
 This nation is not getting soft just because it has progressed to the point where its citizens have en- loved more comforts than those of other nations. Making life more en- durable is one of the outstanding aims of organized society and sure ly those who labor have the right ta their leisure and entertainment.
 It is my belief that it is the duty of the human race to care TOT Us aged and the incompacitated. We cannot conscientiously enjoy fruits of our labors when the less forum ate ones are suffering in our midst. Were I mayor of city, l would dls- courage such things as poor houses. and instead give the lndlvldual an allowance on which to live respect ably and independently in declining years. The many productive years of the average person en1ltles hlli1 to that much, l believe.
 When dealing in city government functions, it is my impression that preventative measures in all things are much less expensive than cures and remedies. It is better to prevent crime than to fill jails with viola tors. -,
 Another thing that would recommend to the citizens ot my city, were mayor, is the partlclpa- tion in elections. If people don't ln- yestigate candidates and then go to the polls and vote for the right persons, they have no right to cr1tl- cize those in office.
 Above all things, however, were l mayor of city, l would practlce tolerance.
