Johnson Opposes
New City Charter
BY J. A. (JAcK) JOHNSON


The proposed Seattle City Char
ter, which will be on the ballot
at the general election March II,
is not a forward step, but rather
retreat from democracy. Reac-
tionary groups are holding it up
as an improvement over the old
charter which was adopted in
1886 and amended many times
since then. True, parts OF the old
charter are obsolete and contra
dictory and Seattle needs a new
charter but We should move for
ward democratically and increase
projections for the peoples rights
and benefits.
During the writing of the new
charter only one public hearing
was held. Others We're requested
but the Commission took the po-
sition that it would be a waste OF
time TO allow the citizens of Sc
attic to present their views. 1t is
not then surprising that the char
ter is threat TO the future of
Seattle.
There are some Improvements
such as raising the salaries of
city officials, the qualifications
for City Health Director and writ
ten examinations wherever pos
sible in civil service promotions,
but let us consider what we have
to swallow TO get these minor i'm
provements.
First, there is no bill OF rights
which is common in all charters
and should include clauses cover
ing no abridgement of freedom
OF speech and assembly. There is
no Fair Employment Practice
clause the like of which the states
OF New York, Indiana, New Jer.
sey and the city OF Chicago have
adopted and which fair-minded
people hold TO be necessary to
guarantee every one regardless of
race, creed, color or national ORR
gin TO have an equal chance at a
job.
Another definitely dangerous
provision is one that will allow
the City Council to repeal or
amend initiatives passed by the
people. To give nine men the right
TO nullify the will of a majority
of 100000 people is not in keep
ing with modern day progress.
Negroes and all other working
people should vote no ON the new
City Charter.
