STRAYER OUTLINES MAYORALITY STAND Frank T. Strayer, who has announced that he will seek the Republican nomination for mayor, today submitted the following statement in explanation of his candidacy: - "I desire to make plain to the citizens of Richmond why I do not believe it incumbent on me to give up my candidacy for mayor in favor of Mr. L. S. Bowman, who has been obsignated a3 a "compromise" candidate. "The only person who asked me to withdraw in favor of Mr. Bowman was Gath Freeman. In making such a request I did not understand. Mr. Freeman wag empowered to do so by this community or by the Republican party. "For Mr. Bowman I have a high personal regard, andjf I were assured that his candidacy tr the candidacy of any other citizen had the sanction of a majority of Republican votes of this community, I would quickly retire from the race, but until such time, I intend to make a vigorous fight for the office. "I recognize my own limitations as clearly as anybody, and I am sure I have felt them more keenly than the others. Compelled to work by the circumstances of my early manhood, I did not get the education I desired, but this I have sought to overcome by reading and studying. Certain traits of character such as industry, honesty. fidelity, temperance, good morals and truthfulness are not confined to the educated or the rich, and these I have always sought to cultivate. Outline Position. "I did not become a candidate for mayor because 'my friends' urged it; I became such a candidate because I regard the office as one of great honor, and I seek the opportunity of trying to give Richmond the best administration it ever had. "The mayor's office should not be a mere side line to some other business or profession. I believe the holder of snch an office should give it his first attention and highest concern, i "If I should be elected I would ! select for the various departments the highest type of men that could be secured for the salaries paid. For the board of works, and other such positions I would seek men of broad experience and good business judgmenL I would ask men to take these places not for the salary paid, but, as a matter of civic duty. In departments of the city where we already have competent employes I would make no change, for I believe the faithful workman should be rewarded by continuance in service. Discusses Appointments. "I regard the light plant as the city's most valuable asset, and believe that its administration should be kept out of politics. Competency and experience should be the sole considerations in selecting its operating force. As the board of works has ihe management and control of the light plant that would be a further reason why I would seek men of experience for such positions. In handling the affairs of the light plant I would urge that the city council be given full information concerning the plant, and if such course is followed I feel confident that council will appropriate all necessary money for the planL and co-operate in its management. At present the mayor acts as police judge. This plan saves the city money and I believe it should be continued. I feel that my experience as a practic ing lawyer would greatly aid me in performing such duties, and I would endeavor to enlarge the work of the city court, thus relieving the circuit court, which now has a very heavy trial docket. The statutes of Indiana permit many cases, both criminal and civil, to be tried in the city court, which cases are now being filed in the circuit court. Promises to be Alert. "Although I do not. think it proper for the mayor of a city to attempt to usurp the duties of a Commercial club executive, yet I do believe a major should constanUy have in mind the industrial and commercial development of his city. "The mayor should nlways be watching for a chance to bring a new enterprise to the city, and to keep and encourage the ones we have. "He ought to watch what othe. cities are doing and when worth while see that the same things are done here. In short, if mayor, I would trv to be a 'live wire,' and keep Richmond on the map. Would Enlarge Parks. "The welfare of our children I re gard as of supreme importance. If our city government would function properly along this line, I believe we could greatly aid the community welfare work, and eliminate part of such expense. One of my hrst suggestions along this line would be to popularize our city parks. I would enlarge the playgrounds in the Glen, and put playgrounds in other parts of the city. I believe public bathing pools would be of great source. "Although I intend to campaign as hard as I know how for the nomination, I intend to indulge in no personalities nor throw mud. And I wart to ask all those who intend to work for my nomination to fight it clean. "The citizens of Wayne county once honored me with the office of prosecuting attorney, in which office I served until entering the service. If elected mayor I pledge to the voters of Richmond that I will carry out the duties of such office as faithfully as I did those of prosecuting attorney. "Respectfully submitted. "FRANK T. STRAYER."

PROGRAM CELEBRATES FIFTH-ANNIVERSARY OF MILTON GRANGE MILTON. Ind.. June 20. The fifth anniversary of the founding of the Milton grange was the occasion for an open meeting of that body Saturday nighL at which music, speeches and recitations comprised the. program of entertainment for those who attended despite the threatened storm. The program was opened by music furnished by a community orchestra led by I. J. L. Harmeier and included Mrs. Harmeier, Joseph Caldwell. Elizabeth Caldwell. George Wagner. Robert Williams, Eston Dailey, Helen Stone, Lawrence WiHiams and Earl Reeder. Delightful Program A song, with an encore, was given by a quartette composed of Albert Ferris. George Wagner. Benton Wissler and Mr. Harmeier. Recitation were given by Lawrence Crawford and Lindille Wissler, and a solo by Anna Wissler, with piano accompaniment by her sister, erda. . The speech by Charles Patterson told of progress of farmers and of the farming industry, ascribing much of the credit to the efforts of the grange. He appealed for more thought to be given to problems which concern veryone or which concern others rather than confining attention to selfish interests alone. "We can do anything," he said, "if we desire to do it. We must have more faith in ourselves, in our organizations and In our neighbors."
