MAYOR SIEWART

To the Electors of Charlottetown: " After my election as Mayor two years ago I had the hope and esire, with the assistance of a majority l fjof the Counc i, to effect certain specified reforms ' that I believed would result in ending the annual

recurring deficits which ave since 1927 become a - settled practice in civic a fairs. All efforts, however, failed to induce the majority in the Council to concur

in the measures proposed. Shall the fhht for better "

- government be continued or given up? To choose the ' latter alternative would be to harken to the council 4 of despair and yield to cowardice. In order to clarify my position, I here submit to.the judgment of the elec- torats s policy embraced in the following five planks: - l. The appointment of a competent city manager

and the assigning to him the carrying out of all v

the duties now performed by the city engineer, the

street committee and the public property commit- tee.

The making it ineligible for the Stipendisry Magis-

trate to be appointed city recorder.

A complete change in the rnode of assessing prop-

erty, whereby the work of the assessor may be

simplified, the cost may be lessened, existing in- equities in the value of many properties may be

remedied, and the procuring thereby of more .

revenue for the city.

The doing away with all unnecessary offices.

The balancing of the city budget within a reason-

able time limit.

I am assured that candidates will be nominated hi the several wards and all due efforts made for ‘ their election pledged to support and carry into effect sucn a policy. On that assumption I consent to be Q nominated for the mayoraity.

I appeal for support of such a policy to the plain, ordinary, everyday people of our city, who rnust be deeply interested in an effort to save it from finan- cial disaster. _

As I shall make no personal canvass, I take ad- vantage of this opportunity to respectfully ask for

_ your support and confidence. -

I fully realize that intelligent men and women who understand the existing situation quite well will have no wish to be urged or coaxed as to how they should vote. 1

As the coming election will perhaps be one of the most important in the history of the city, I would ' urge upon all the necessity of exercising their fran- chise.

Councillor Kennedy's Appeal As Mayoralty Candidate

TO THE ELECTCRS 01' TH! OUT OI‘ CHARLOTTE TOWN

ladies and Gentlemen:

As my announcement for the Idayoralty has already ap- peared in the Press, in making my appeal for your kind ‘consideration I am fully convinced that the financial posi- rtion oi‘ our City is excellent.

'i he Chartered Accountant, Mr. Hart, has surely set at P951 any ‘Uniust Criticism.” The public look upon our _‘Borids as a high class investment and they are eagerly sought after,

With eight years experience at the Council Board l

"would consider it very unwise to attempt under present con-

ditions to embark on any "Radical Change", where the "M1411! 11118111! he called upon to suﬂer a great deal ofbhard- ship and the City be the loser in the end.

True the burning question is “Unpaid Taxes". Now that a general improvement is in evidence, so much so that the 1933 Tax Collections exceeded those of 1932 by pfggﬂc.

If the Citizens see fit to elect me. it is my intention to co-cperate with the Incoming Council in the collection of all Taxes and Arrears. With economy practised in every de- partment of our public service I can assure the Taxpayers lthot the present 2 per cent rate will enable us to carry on

in s satisfactory way.

Everything pertaining to the City's welfare, consistent with our revenue, will receive my approval and support.

The one important hlue is a balanced budget and I believe that if the incoming Con,“ will get down to businem and co-opcrate-u g body of business men should-then by a “m, at economic a balanced budget could be brought

I am against increased taxation. Every elort should be made to collect arrears and cur- rent tases from those ﬁnancially able to pay and consideration given to those temporarily ﬂngn- clally embarassed due to the depression, which is‘ rapidly passinl by. '

The Federal Government favors s policy of public works expenditure and the incoming Council should secure as large a grant as pos- sible to create work during the winter months for our unemployed men. These men want work, they have no desire for direct relief. It would give mmi more initiative and independence and st the same time the City could beneﬁt by that labor at no more outlay than at present.

If elected I shall co-operste in every way possible and will support any movement to bet- ter present conditions and at the same time I pledge my support particularly to the interests of Ward l.
