The Sun (Newspaper) - October 24, 1947, Cincinnati, OhioGel your friends to vote a first Choice need Block workers Rollin 1l Everett t1 11 a Sil it 20 h a sopi1 a a maker univ new 1� 00$ a Ruta matter june a a Pott off toe at Cincinnati 2, , under the act of March 3. 1879. Vol. 8, no. I intensive last october 24, 1947 w it by Rollin h. Everett do working men have an interest in City government the answer of the Republican organization apparently is a a not for its spokesmen Ai be that by abolishing or they can keep labor out of Council. At least they can keep any labor Man who is not okayed by boat a Fred so 1 me her out. And this year Boss Schneller did not see fit to Okay any labor Man for Council. But lets look at the facts when the children of working men play they do not go to a country club nor to a Michigan Camp for the summer. They go to the City playgrounds. When the children of working men Are ill they often go to the general Hospital. Read the list when a child is killed by an Auto while playing on some crowded narrow Street it generally is the child of a working Man. Of a working Man gets a University education it Likely will be at the University of Cincinnati. But Indian Hill which pays no taxes to us and sends few students there has one third control of the us Board on which there is no working Man. You can go on Down the list of City services and you will find that it is working men who have the keenest interest in them. Why is it then that the political organization wants to exclude freely chosen representatives of working people from City Council the answer simply is that the organization is wedded to real estate interests which make excessive profits out of rentals on houses where working people live. It is in the control of men who Are anti labor. It does not want slums rents prices Gas rates police administration and various other subjects concerning working people discussed in Council wanted wage Cut one of its handpicked councilmen never elected by the peo pie said in the press last week that he not Only was a Good businessman but understood the problems of working people. He is the same councilman who advocated a wage Cut As the Way to lower prices. It would be interesting to hear him explain that theory to the wives of our working men in Cincinnati. On the other hand there Are other candidates running for Council who agree with me that the welfare of the working people is tied up to the welfare of the whole Community. Working people should study Well before the vote nov. 4, and consider whether they want councilmen elected on the platform of excluding labor from Council or candidates who believe in representation in Council for working people As Well As business and professional people. An drive with the Aid of Many additional Block workers must be had if Rollin h. Eve Council and proportional representation or is to be saved fac leaders declared this week. The Appeal for additional persons who will serve As Block workers to assist in distributing literature and in it 11 log o it Tow a nov. 4, was declared to be urgent Krupit co Pac director stopped in Cincinnati to Confer with the local leaders. A it h e greatest danger a Kroll declared is overconfidence. Too Many people have the idea that Everett is week Vine streets. The Telephone number is Parkway 6071, the fact is that he has far More Competition for first Choice votes than he had two years ago a and the Republican organization is making Plain their desire to get him out of Council by their introduction of the amendment to get rid of or. We have reason to be proud of his record in Council. From now until election Day we should drive to see that he gets an overwhelming approval at the persons willing to Volunteer to work whenever they can from now until after the election is Over should Call Pac Headquarters in the railway brother Hood building second floor.
