charge, Holtzman said “there isn’t a word of truth to it.” “I’m not paying any attention to it,” declared Police Chief Claude M. Worley. Holmes charges Slack obtained the office as a result of the conspiracy to deprive Holmes of his political rights. Holmes asserted he had positive proof that Slack, Holtzman and councilmen held a conference previous to the election and agreed to put Slack in office. Holtzman was special prosecutor at the time of the alleged conspiracy and later resigned to become corporation counsel when Slack was elected. He has taken an active part in forming the administration. Worley is charged with placing an armed guard at city hall while the locks were changed. “The charge is positively untrue and silly.* I was in Texas until a short time before the election. Councilmen Springsteen and I discussed no names except those on the citizens’ ticket,” said Councilman Edward B. Raub, Democrat. Other councilmen declined to comment. Holmes said he had not decided whether to sign the $125,000 temporary loan ordinance ’ for the board of health, which City Clerk William A. Boyce, Jr., passed to him Thursday. Council directed Boyce to present all ordinances and resolutions to Holmes, declaring him legal mayor of the city.

TELLS HOWTO VOTE School Head Stresses Principle in Candidates. “It is the tluty of every citizen to vote for men and women of principle rather than for the party emblem,” Charles F. Miller, city school superintendent, said at the Northwood Christian Church Fellowship dinner Thursday night.

How Much Do You Weigh? Is your flesh natural? Excessive flesh is frequently a sign of disturbance in nutrition —the process of oxidation (burning up) does not go on properly, and as a result flesh accumulates. Mountain Valley Mineral Water from Hot Springs, Arkansas, seems to influence oxidation through its minerals, which regulate the intake of nourishment and the outflow of waste of all the body tissues.
