Charter Voting
'Up To Individual
Saws Commission

East Cleveland City Commission
Tuesday night, while individually
expressing their opinion as to the
proposed County Charter, did not
go on record as favoring or oppos-
ing the proposal as body.
When Mrs. Stuart Cummins,
Voters chairman of the East Cleve-
land League of Women's Voters
requested stand by the commits
sion, "as a guide to voters, men,
bers discussed their personal views
but held they could not speak for
the individual East Cleveland
voter.
Commissioner Richard Horan
summed it up when he stated that
there is such a mixed response to
the proposal, he felt that as a COM
missioner he could not take stand,
although, as an individual he fav-
ored it. Mr.. Kline Leet seemed to
be of the same opinion.
On the other hand members
Walter Sutter, Guy T. Rockwell
and Richard Rice indicated they
were still studying the charter and
were still in doubt as to several
af it's proposals. Mr.. Sutter ex-
pressed the opinion, that too much
had been pooled into the new ven-
ture. He was rather of the opinion
that it would have been better to
have introduced the entirely new
plan for stronger overall county
government on a smaller scale
and then work the thing out as
experience proved its need.
Later Mrs. Cummins made the
comment that the League knew
they should not have put the ques-
tion, but having itself come out
for the charter, they felt that
commission expression would have
been helpful.
Following adjournment Manager
Chas. A. Carran and Commission
members discussed the charter in
formally with Mrs. Cummins, Mrs.
John Watson, League president,
Mrs. Frank Baldau and Miss Ber-
telle Lyttle, all of the League.
