Commissioners
Issue Joint
Statement

Remarks of r. S. Horan, Presi-
dent of the East Cleveland City
Commission at Commission Meet
ing November 1st, 1949.
"This report for the first nine
months of 1949" said Mr.. Horan,
''is an example of the type of pro-
gram which has been developed and
carried through past years by the
City Commission, City Manager
Carran, and the other City Ooffi-
cials.
"since Mr.. Rice, Mr.. sutter and
I are candidates for reelection, we
have had numerous requests for a
statement of our platform. |, there
fore, feel that we should make our
position clear to the citizens with
this joint public statement.
During the thirty-one years un-
der Commission Manager govern
ment, the East Cleveland City Com
missioners and officials have con-
stantly endeavored to provide good
government and good services for
the citizens of this community at
minimum cost. We believe that we
have been successful in this en-
deavor as evidenced by the con-
tinuing support Of the overwhel-
ming majority of our citizens.
"Our Police and Fire Depart
ments, our rubbish and garbage
disposal, and our other services
have been maintained on high
plane and constantly improved.
Programs have been carried for
ward for street Improvements, i'm
proved traffic control systems and
all of the othe facilities required
to operate a modern city. At the
same time, our expenses have been
kept within our income and our
bonded debt has been reduced to
the lowest figure, in over thirty
years.
"Messrs. Rice, Sutter and I, dur
ing our terms of office, have
worked closely with City Manager
Carran and the other City officials
in continuing the type of govern
ment which this community has de-
manded and supported. 1t is our
intention, if reelected, to continue
our record of past years and i'm
prove it wherever possible in the
interests of good government and
good services for East Cleveland.
eve seek reelection on our re-
cord. We feel that East Cleveland
government and services meet with
the approval of the great majority
of our citizens and that you will
support our administration with its
long record of good municipal SER
vice rather than make any changes.
Rice, Sutter and l particularly
urge all East Cleveland citizens to
vote on November 9Th and we ask
that you support US for re-elec-
ton"

The union also dropped a pro-

Capt. Raspberry said instruc-
tions had been given to the police
this summer to keep a closer eye
on the downtown parks. AS a re-
suit, arrests for the eight-month
period totaled 926 on charges of
drunkenness, as charged with 667
in the same period last year. The
number this year ranged from 20
in January to 267 in July and 202
in August.
Capt. Raspberry said the park
police are handicapped in appre-
hending vagrants by the law.
Many more cases of vagrancy
would appear on the records were
it not for the ruling of the courts
that an officer must observe such
an individual for a period of three
days before he is permitted to
arrest the individual" he said.
Another reason arrests for
drunkenness are so large, the
police official said, is that the
