Davidson defends record against editorial charge of inconsistency
County Commissioner J E Davidson rejects Chronicle-Telegram editorial claims about his handling of the Sheriff Grall bond and Lorain Bridge funding. He asserts his past votes, actions, and business integrity show no inconsistency, citing a 1936 push for a bascule bridge and a 1989 levy defeat that saved about 400000. He accuses the paper of fabricating a cyclone cellar metaphor and closes with a Cicero quotation about changing one's mind.
