VOLUME II, NUMBER FIFTY Both Pa STARTLING FACTS TO BE BARED AS CAMPAIGN CLOSES Democrats Claim Every Ward Except 10th; Huber Sees a G. O. P. Victory By LINDA LEE LANE With the hour for Gary's municipal election drawing nearer at hand, heads of both parties stoutly claimed the victory today in the present mayoralty campaign. Working with feverish fervor in an effort to invoke support for their respective tickets, representatives of both democratic and republican parties predicted that their tickets would be the choice of the voters when Garyites go to the polls Tuesday to elect a mayor to preside over the destiny of the city for the next four years. "This election will go to the democrats," said Enmet N. White, candidate for mayor on the democratic ticket." "We are going to carry every ward in the city with the exception of the tenth ward." "A house to house poll shows that the people have responded to my appeal for civic decency, and will support me in the election Tuesday by more than five to one. "The handwriting is on the wall; the people are tired of boss rule in politics, and they are going to rise up and with all the vigor they possess, they will seek to restore the fair name of the city by putting in office men of integrity, honor and ability," Mr. White said. "It's a Cinch"—Huber Equally as optimistic over the outcome are the republicans. "It's a cinch," declared Judge A. C. Huber, republican city committee chairman and manager of the mayoralty campaign of Roswell O. Johnson, republican nominee for mayor. "This election," Judge Huber, said, "will not be any different from any others. Gary is mostly republican. Under republican administration, this city has advanced from nothing to its present size and prosperity. The people realize that if the affairs of the city are to be handled capably, they must entrust the management of their municipal affairs to the republicans. "We have no doubt that we will carry every single ward in the entire city by comfortable majorities, and that Mr. Johnson will be swept into office by a staggering plurality of votes." Judge Huber said. Two Negroes in race The campaign has been characterized by considerable acrimony, and there has been some hurling of charges by candidates on both tickets. As the hour for the election draws closer, this promises to increase, it was believed, in view of a statement emanating from a reliable source that some most startling statements are yet to be made. Final rallies are to be held Monday night. This year's campaign presents somewhat of a contrast in one respect, however, when compared with the municipal campaign of four years ago. Then, three Negroes on the republican ticket were running for election to the city council. Now, only one Negro is running on the G.O.P. ticket for council. The three candidates of four years ago were defeated for re-nomination in the spring primary last May. Two of them, Arthur B. Whitlock, and Dr. S. R. Blackwell, are under federal indictment for violation of the national prohibition laws. The other, "William "Bill" Burrus, was unsuccessful in his effort at re-nomination when a recount showed him defeated by a fraction of the vote cast. All three of the places held by these men are now held by white men except in the case of Whitlock who was defeated for the nomination by a Negro, Wilbur Hardaway, candidate on the G. O. P. ticket. He is running for councilman of Ward Five. The other colored man is Guy McCougherty, candidate on the democratic ticket for councilman of the Fourth ward. Both men have conducted livey campaigns in an impersonal manner, and both have made a plea for the support of their respective parties. Their position on opposite tickets, however, is not considered unfortunate, inasmuch as the Negro citizenry may express their choice for both without conflict thru the advantage of paper ballots instead of voting by machines. --- The Gary American New Minister REV. W. T. COLEMAN Although he arrived just a few day ago to assume his duties as a minister here, the Rev. W. T. Coleman pastor of St. James A.M.E. church shown above, is one of the most active men in the community. He has sponsored several outstanding programs at his church, and has several important plans for the near future. November To Be Banner Month At Local Theatre "Bohemia" and "Dainty Dolls" to be Among Coming Shows At Local House "Remember November and December—two months of good shows at the Gary," will be the Gary Theater's slogan during the next two months and patrons of the playhouse will have reason to remember for the Mutual circuit has routed its best shows into Gary during this time. Manager George Young received his advance bookings from the New York office of the Mutual circuit this week and he is elated over the shows President I. H. Herk of the Mutual circuit has selected for Gary during the holiday season. It happens that President Herk is not only interested in the Gary theater but he is more than pleased with the way Mutual burlesque has been received here and in appreciation of the splendid support and patronage the Gary has enjoyed since its opening as a Mutual theater, he is sending the best shows of the Mutual circuit to Gary. It isn't too early to think of Thanksgiving or even Christmas shopping—at least it isn't too early for President Herk to think of it—for he has selected "Night Life in Paris" as the special Thanksgiving week attraction at the Gary and "Hello Paree" as the Mutual circuit's Christmas gift to Gary theater-goers. "French Models," which comes to the Gary theater for one week starting Sunday, Nov. 3, is the first of the Mutual circuit's bigger and better shows for November and December, followed by "Sugar Babies," "Merry While" and "Night Life in Paris." December will bring "Bohemians," considered to be one of the greatest-Mutual shows this year, "Dainty Dolls," and then comes Ann Corie and her "Girls in Blue," sister show of Hindu Wausau and her "Hindu Belles," regarded as a sensation.

When you go to the polls next Tuesday, you will want your choice to be intellectually capable and diplomatic enough to represent you with ability. If your choice has been in office before, you will want to be assured that his record as office-holder is a record of achievement. In short, you do not want to experiment with your city officials. No one not familiar with the needs of the city should be elected. To be familiar with conditions, a candidate should be mentally alert. To assure yourself that he will supply these needs so far as you are concerned, he should be known to you as wholly unprejudiced and as your friend from his past acts and performances. Your representatives in the city council the next four years should be chosen with care. It's hard to fire an alderman before his term is up. And so, when you vote in the coming elections, be sure that you choose men on whom you can depend. Do not experiment with those candidates who promise much, but who have always done little. If candidates on one ticket impress you with an ability to serve you efficiently and well, elect them to office. If you believe that Politics is, at best, a dirty game.

Methodist men from nearby towns and cities will gather in Gary, Indiana, all day Tuesday, November 5, at a district Men's Council for the South Bend District of the church. The sessions of the Council will be held in First Methodist Episcopal church, Gary. Speakers will be William S. Boyard, Chicago, corresponding secretary of the Board of Education; E. Dow Bancroft, Chicago, associate secretary of the Methodist Brotherhood; Ralph A. Ward, Chicago, executive secretary of the World Service Commission and for twenty years a missionary to China; W. B. Hollingshead, Chicago, field representative, World Service Commission; Arthur H. Sapp, Huntington, Indiana, prominent lawyer, former president of Rotary International and Bert Edward Smith, Chicago, executive secretary of the Men's Work Commission of the denomination and president of the Interdenominational Council on Men's Work. A feature of the day's program will be singing by Signor Mario Cappelli, Italian-Ameican tenor, formerly a member of the Cathedral Choir of St. Peter's, Rome, Italy. In addition to all-day sessions for men there will be a mass meeting for women. The program for men will include a conference on evangelism at 9:30 and a session devoted to missionary education at 11. During the noon --- an untried candidate is capable of rendering you better service, send him there. Do not be over-awed by the cry of "party regularity." If there are certain candidates on any ticket that you have a just reason to believe inimical to your group and civic welfare, split your vote, and with a clear conscience cast your ballot for men whom you think will serve you in an efficient, honorable and capable manner. On the other hand, if you are convinced that the candidates on any one ticket are qualified by their mental attitude toward you and your racial interests, by their moral and intellectual worth, and by their civic consciousness to serve you capably and honorably, cast your ballot solidly for that ticket. Read carefully the political advertisements in this issue of The Cary American. Consider the plea of Guy McCoughtry; read the challange of the Citizens' Party of East Chicago; ponder well the candidacy of L. B. Clayton; study the pledge made by R. O. Johnson; consider the reminder of Mayor Raleigh P. Hale; think over the appeal of Emmet N. White—all in this issue of The American. The decision rests with you. Whether you live in Gary, Hammond or East Chicago, you have a civic duty to perform by voting for the best men in the field. You are the judge. You are the jury. What will your decision be?

APARTMENTS ARE OPENED TO NEGRO Baran Apartments Can Now be Rented by Colored as Well as White Upon the insistence of The Gary American, another modern apartment building in Gary has been opened to colored people who were previously restricted from securing apartments in the building. The building is the Baran building 1803 Broadway, which was completed recently at a cost of several thousand dollars by Charles Baran, Gary furniture merchant and real estate dealer. The building is one of the most modern in the city, with every facility for comfort and convenience Fourteen apartments are now vacant in the building and these will be rented to either white or colored, Mr. Baran announced today after a conference with the editor of The American. At present, the apartments are rented to Caucasians, according to Mr. Baran, who extended an invitation to everyone to visit the apartments and inspect their many fine appointments. For further information, any interested person may inquire at the Baran Furniture store, 1516 Broadway. Upon mentioning The Gary American, they will be accorded every opportunity to visit and inspect the apartment dwelling. —The highest mountain in the world is Mount Everest, in the Himalayas, with an altitude of 29,141 feet; and the highest mountain in the United States is Mount Whitney, in California, with an altitude of 14,501 feet.

Leaders Attend Storey Funeral Pay Last Tribute Man Who Championed the Cause of Oppressed Negro Is Buried in Boston (By Special Leased Wire) BOSTON — Funeral services for Moorfield Story, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and former president of the American Bar association, were held here Sunday with leaders in America's business, professional and industrial life present to pay their last tribute to the man who championed the rights of the oppressed Negro. The death of Story is the second less recently to the Negro race of men who gave much of their time and personal wealth to fighting the battles of the Negro race. Louis Marshal noted constitutional lawyer, who died in Switzerland a few weeks ago, was the other man who sought to protect the rights of colored people. Marshall, conceded to be one of the most able constitutional lawyers in America, fought many of the legal battles of the colored race before the Supreme Court of the United States. But Storey began his championship of the cause of the Negro at a time when it was less popular than now. He gave his powerful support to the work carried on by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and became the first president of the N.A.A.C.P. in 1910, holding this office until he died Storey was secretary to the late Senator Charles Sumner, who also became popular for his liberal attitude toward the Negro. In 1915, Storey filed a brief with the U. S. Supreme court in the celebrated Grandfather Caluse case involving the disfranchisement of colored people. In 1917, he argued the Louisville segregation case which outlawed residential segregation of colored citizens by state or city enactment. His last fight in the interests of colored people was his successful defense --- HOME EDITION FEATURE SECTION TO BE ADDED TO GARY AMERICAN Additional Section To Be Included in Each Issue of Newspaper Calculated to pique the interest of the reader and to furnish entertainment for every member of the family, an Illustrated Feature Section, in two colors, will be a part of each copy of The Gary American beginning next week. The addition will increase the size of The American to twelve pages, but the price will remain three cents per copy as formerly. To Carry Everything The Illustrated Feature. Section, as the name implies, will be a pictorial review of events among members of the race. Prominent stage stars, moving picture celebrities and others will be featured in the section. Their rise to success over obstacles will be told in short but entertaining sketches of their lives. In fact, the section will take the reader behind the scenes in the movie studios where the stars can be seen at their work. For those interested in enhancing their personal appearance, the Illustrated Feature Section will hold an unusual charm. Advice and instructions on the care of the hair, skin and body will be embodied in a series of beauty chats in each issue. To the housewife, the Illustrated Feature Section will be considered a boon with its articles on how to prepare delicious delicacies, with its many cooking recipes, and its hints on housekeeping. To Forecast Styles What is stylish in street wear, formal and informal dress wear will also be found in this new addition to The American. Current styles will be profusely illustrated. In addition, the Illustrated Feature Section will contain a serial story, "Mamba's Daughters," by Du Bose Heyward, author of "Porgy," which many Garyites witnessed last winter on the stage. "Mamba's Daughters," is a story of the sacrifices of a Negro mother. It is full of romance, humor and tragedy, and has been described as the most outstanding work of fiction by Du Bose Heyward. The serial will be run in installments from week to week, with a synopsis of each previous installment. Watch for the Illustrated Feature Section! 'Evangeline' Is New Show at the United Motion pictures may come and go but it is doubtful if a local screen will ever reflect a more impressive, wholesome and colorful romantic drama than in "Evangeline," coming soon to United Artists theatre. As a poem "Evangeline" ranks among the world classics of literature; as a photoplay, thanks to an obviously sympathetic and pretentious production, it is equally vital. There is not a wasted moment in the film. A powerful story, a stirring, appealing romance are developed steadily and surely and every scene is an artistic triumph, both from the histrionic angle, and the photographic. Seldom has a more beautiful picture been offered and similarly seldom has a more compelling, all round screen performance been offered by star and supporting cast. Do not confuse "carton" (a pasteboard box), with "cartoon" (a pictorial caricature). Do not say, "I flopped over to the other side." Say, "I went over." Do not say, "He is a good sort of boy." Say, "nice kind." Do not say, "Mrs. Brown happened in yesterday." Say, "Mrs. Brown chanced to call."

IN GARY AND SUBURBS ELSEWHERE, FIVE CENTS New York—The Arkansas Supreme court has for the second time reversed the case of Robert Bell, young colored boy who with Grady Swain has twice been convicted and sentenced first to death, then to life imprisonment for the alleged murder by drowning of two white boys. W. J. Lamer, white attorney, who has defended the boys and is convinced of their innocence informs the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, that the two Friendless and helpless colored boys face a third trial. The N.A.A.C.P. to date has expended $1240.00 in keeping these two boys from the electric chair and prison. In his letter to the N.A.A.C.P., Mr. Lamer writes: "The reversal was great victory for justice. I feel that everything which could have been done for this boy has been done—nothing left undone which could have been done—. It took four days and nights to try the case which as you know resulted in verdict of murder in the first degree with life sentence. Grady Swain is in same situation of the Bell boy. His trial will also come up at the same time as that of Robert Bell—. I believe if the proper attention is given to these two little boys' cases we will be able the next time to clear them but I must be up and doing—. I have paid out of my own pocket considerable sums during the last trial—" Stephen Girard, a French sailor who settled in Philadelphia, setting up in business in 1772 on a small scale as a wine merchant, later built a fleet of merchant vessels, became a banker, and when he died in 1832 left an estate of $10,000,000, being the first millionaire in this country.

"Redeem East Chicago" Few men in Gary's professional world have attained as much prominence with less effort than Dr. Charles R. Wood, prominent physician and surgeon with offices at 1512 Broadway. And yet Dr. Wood is one of the most resigning members of Gary's professional world — so modest, in fact, that it might be well said of him that he is self-effacing. He is vice-president of two of Gary's most prominent organizations — the Gary Noonday Business club and the Central District Improvement association, and in bestowing the honor of these offices upon him, members of both organizations have recognized the worth of the man, and know of his ability at team work and his willingness to cooperate with every movement designed to advance the interests of the community. Besides his civic work, Dr. Wood enjoys one of the largest practices of a physician and surgeon in Gary. The demands made upon a doctor by a community never cease, and Dr. Wood is always on the job to meet them. This is the first of a series of sketches on men who comprise the Professional Directory of The Gary American. (NEXT WEEK: ATTY. MOORE) Dr. Taylor Moves to New Baran Building Dr. Dan B. Taylor, pioneer Gary Physician and surgeon, has moved his office from 1709 Broadway to suite 1, of the Baran building, 1803 Broadway, according to an announcement given to The American late today. In this new office, Dr. Taylor is located in one of the most modern office buildings in the city. THE GARY AMERICAN The Professions JOHN B. HARRIS DR. CHARLES R.

Dealing with the romance of Evangeline and Gabriel, Longfellow's immortal lovers, and the tragic days when the Acadians, a peaceable people settled at Grand Pre, Nova Scotia, were torn from their homes and deported to various sections of the United States, "Evangeline" is said to offer a soul-stirring dramatic tragedy --- BLAMES CHURCH FOR RACE HATE Weird Stories Missionaries Tell Cited as Cause of Much Prejudice Washington — "The Psychology of Race Prejudice," was the subject of an address delivered at the Howard University Forum last Wednesday night by Dr. Fred A.

Among the causes of race prejudice enumerated by Dr. Moss, was the church and the weird stories told by missionaries in an appeal for funds to support their work. He said that the most important cause of race prejudice was ignorance and isolation, citing instances in his own experience in which he had been able to overcome prejudices of earlier years as a result of enlarged contact and more enlightenment. He emphasized the fact that race prejudice is acquired rather than hereditary as evidenced by the attitude of children of both races toward each other, even in the south, until they become effected by their environment.

According to Dr. Numa P. G.

ST. SURDAY, Nov. 1 - 2 and KELLYS In IC CITY" --- A Pledge to Voters! R. O. Johnson, candidate for mayor, and his co-worker, Ralph Bradford, show by their hurried midnight conferences, their appeals for aid, their demands that former republican leaders get into the fight that this campaign is not going as they hoped. There are many signs of a revolt among republicans, both in the organization and among the mass of citizens who habitually vote the republican ticket. The revolt is not directed at the republican party so much as against Mr. Johnson. Gary republicans are seeing the light. They have learned that Mr. Johnson has been a bolter from the republican party and so they see no reason why they have any party responsibility towards him. Mr. Johnson had no party responsibility towards W. F. Hodges in 1917. Citizens of Gary recall that Mr. Hodges was nominated for mayor by the republican voters in the spring of that year and that Mr. Johnson bolted his party although he was at that very time serving his first term as mayor of Gary. The republican voters had decided they had enough of him at that time and they put forward Mr. Hodges as their nominee. But did that stop Johnson? It did not. He set up what he called the "Independent ticket" and he ran in the election against Hodges and the republican party, and was defeated. The vote was Hodges 2,848, Johnson 1,913, Curtis 2,375. Mr. Johnson did not do any hollering in that campaign about party regularity. Indeed by his act he said that party regularity is the bunk in city elections. City government is a business and it requires the use of business principles and business men to make it successful. If you voters choose me as your mayor I will make it my job to see that business principles and business men give Gary the best administration it is in my power to give. There will be no cheap politics played in the police force, which will be composed of capable men whose single duty will be to police this city without fear or favor. Mr. Johnson says he intends to give Gary the best administration it ever had. Mr. Johnson is full of words and promises but what did he actually do about these things when he was mayor? Was he efficient? Did he lower taxes? Did his police force make a record of which the city was proud? Did he make such a good mayor that the voters wanted him again? They did not want him in 1917 when they rejected him and elected Hodges. The voters in 1917 were close to Johnson. He was mayor then.. They saw him actually serving as mayor and they turned him down. Why? Because he was a great mayor? No, they defeated him because he was failure. And what about his law enforcement program? Well the action of the federal government during his second administration is sufficient answer to that question. If the police had been attending to their business of enforcing the laws instead of playing politics there would have been no convictions in the federal court at Indianapolis. And then taxes. Were they lowered by Mr. Johnson's great business administration? No they were not lowered, they were raised one-third. Starting with a rate of 74 cents Mr. Johnson's "business administration" raised it to $1.00 in four years. The following table shows the increase in the four years: Year Assessed Assessed Valuation Year Collected Rate Taxes Collected 1921 $134,855,530 1922 $ .74 $1,091,322.56 1922 129,158,180 1923 .82 1,190,709.38 1923 129,121,180 1924 .82 1,056,887.10 1924 131,308,335 1925 .92 1,276,948.68 1925 139,244,070 1926 1.00 1,387,173.21 Is Mr. Johnson telling you about his taxation record? Well not so you could notice it. Then there was Mr. Johnson's handling of the notorious west side sewer. When bids were taken on the sewer it was found that an "outsider" — that means a contractor not in the contractor's ring—had made the low bid. The board of works started to let the work to this low bidder when Mr. Johnson stepped into the picture. He fired A. S. Hess, now postmaster of Gary, and Harry Stringfellow from the board of works because they refused to let the job to a member of the ring. A member of the ring contract and a grand jury indicted the contractors in the ring. However a tech was discovered in the appointment of the grand jury and the cases had to be no less used. These matters give some indication of Mr. Johnson's business ability as mayor. Elect me mayor and I pledge you voters there will be no contractors' ring working the city and no cheap politics played with my police force. first showing in Chicago at the McVickers theatre, according to announcement yesterday by Balaban & Katz. The new talking - singing - dancing production is said to have the most imposing cast ever assembled for a photoplay. "The Hollywood Revue" differs from "The Broadway' Melody," M-G-M's other talking, singing and dancing production, in that it is distinctly of Emmet N. White the revue school of entertainment rather than of the musical comedy type. It is said to be patterned after the more ambitious Broadway stage revues and to illustrate effectively the possibilities of the audible screen for this type of production. —It is said that for about three weeks after birth, a baby cannot see anything clearly and is totally color blind. Louis Kosloff Heads Show at the Oriental Lou Kosloff brings his rhythmic band to the Oriental theatre the week starting Friday, November 1st, in a brand new scintillating stage show called "Pirates of Melody." Lou and the band have several arrangements and numbers. Frank Wilson, one of Chicago's favorite tenors and ballads in his own inimitable style. The entire stage show features beautiful settings, rollicking pirate girls, and a singing chorus. The Oriental screen features, next week, Dolores Costello, one of the most beautiful and popular cinema stars, in her latest all-talking production, "Hearts in Exile." This is an intensely interesting story of Russia and Siberia, presenting the age-old triangle in an entirely different way. 333 On Tuesday, November 5, among the offices to be filled by the voters will be that of City Treasurer. This office demands a man of seasoned ability and experience—a man who can and who will administer the duties of the City Treasurer's office in an able and efficient manner. Herman Werber, candidate for treasurer on the Republican ticket, has shown by his past record as a member of the city council and by his acts as a citizen that he is not a friend to colored people. In all of his record, not a single instance can be found where he has shown himself a friend to colored people. It was he who sought to get "Bill" Burrus fired from the sheriff's staff when Hut Olds was sheriff. It was he who was councilman of the Sixth ward when colored people were not allowed to get off the street car in Tolleston, his home ward, and it is he, who by every evidence, has proven himself to be not a friend to the colored man. Only when he ran for City Treasurer last May did he start to show any cordial or sympathetic interest in your race, individually or collectively. Compare the attitude of Werber with that of L. B. Clayton, Democratic nominee for City Treasurer. Clayton is your friend. He has not indicated this by weak smiles and feeble handshakes around election times, but his whole record shows him to be one of the best friends the colored people have in Gary. In his own business, as head of the Big 4 Transfer Co., he has proven himself a staunch friend to your race, not only by employing them in responsible positions, but by aiding them in their group problems and endeavors. Has Herman Werber ever employed a colored man in his bottling works on Eleventh avenue? Does he now employ one? Investigation will prove that he does NOT! Nor is he likely to do so if he becomes City Treasurer of the City of Gary. Only in the light of his past record can you determine what a candidate for public office will do in the future. Do not be deceived in this election by the bugaboo of partisanship. If you want a City Treasurer who, from his experience, has proven himself a capable business man, and who, from his past record, has shown himself to be your true and tried friend, vote for L. B. Clayton for City Treasurer. L. B. CLAYTON for City Treasurer Friday, November 1, 1929 THE GARY AMERICAN DO NOT BE DECEIVED! Page Five Page Six THE GARY AMERICAN Friday, November 1, 1929 To the Voters of Gary: Let me renew my primary pledge- 1937 If you elect me as your Mayor, it is my pledge: That I will give all of my life, all of my time, all of my energy, all of my heart and soul to the welfare of the people of Gary. That I will select as members of my cabinet, and as heads of departments, and members of boards, citizens of Gary of unimpeachable integrity and unquestionable ability. As far as possible I shall select these from the plain, ordinary, common business men of Gary, avoiding the would-be civic leaders and the social elite. THAT I WILL BE MAYOR OF GARY, IN TRUTH AS WELL AS IN NAME, AND WILL ADHERE TO THE RIGHT AND DENY THE WRONG WITHOUT CONSULTING FIRST WITH ANY LORD OR DUKE, BUT WILL LISTEN ONLY TO THE VOICE OF MY CONSCIENCE, TO THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GARY, AND TO THE PEOPLE WHO ELECT ME.

THAT I WILL COMPEL ALL OF THE EMPLOYES OF THE CITY TO GIVE COURTEOUS, INTELLIGENT SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF GARY, AND TO THE STRANGERS WITHIN OUR GATES, AND SO THAT THERE MAY BE NO MISTAKE, THIS MEANS AN INTELLIGENT AND HONEST BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS; A CAPABLE AND COURTEOUS CITY CONTROLLER; AN EFFICIENT, WELL-TRAINED, INTELLIGENT FORCE OF GENTLEMEN, NOT ROUGH-NECKS, ON THE POLICE DEPARTMENT; A FIRE DEPARTMENT THAT CAN PUT OUT FIRES; A STREET DEPARTMENT THAT WILL TALK LESS POLITICS AND CLEAN MORE ALLEYS; AN ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT WHICH WILL GIVE THE PEOPLE OF GARY FULL VALUE RECEIVED ON THEIR STREET, ALLEY AND SEWER CONSTRUCTION; AND A BOARD OF SAFETY WHICH WILL MAKE THE WATCHWORD OF GARY PROGRESS, INSTEAD OF CRIME. THAT I WILL DO EVERYTHING WITHIN MY POWER, BOTH IN SEASON AND OUT OF SEASON, TO BRING NEW AND VARIED INDUSTRIES INTO GARY; TO SEEK EMLOYMENT FOR OUR MEN AND WOMEN WHO MUST TOIL, AND THUS TO FILL UP OUR VACANT FLATS AND STORES AND END OUR BUSINESS STAGNITION. THAT I WILL BY MY OWN CONDUCT SET AN EXAMPLE FOR MY OWN BOYS AND THE OTHER YOUNG MEN OF GARY, AND PROVE CONCLUSIVELY THAT MY CHARACTER IS ABOVE REPROACH, BY MAKING GARY A PRIDE AMONG THE CITIES OF INDIANA. THAT I WILL PERSONALLY FOSTER AND TAKE THE LEAD IN ALL IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE WHOLESOME RECREATION OF OUR PEOPLE, FOR THE FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF OUR SPLENDID PARKS AND SCHOOLS, AND IN EVERY ENTERPRISE WHERE THE CIVIC UPBUILDING OF OUR COMMUNITY IS AT STAKE.
