POLICY OUTLINED BY MAYOR JOHN B. GIESY j ' (Continued from page 1) city, government, I wish to say that w shoald ever be mindful of the tact that we are all of us servants of . the . people. It is scarcely necessary to say that the people hav a right to be heard on all matters affecting their In terests and the council should so condoct its deliberations that the fullest protection may be given them. The people have a right to demand and receive efficient, full- ployes. , All sections of the city should receive equal consideration for, as all contribute their pro portionate share in taxes for the purpose of defraying the expenses of the city government, each should participate equally in the benefits to be derived. I would especially urge that the remote Sections of the city be not .ne glected.

Police Department Vital ' j "Our' police department is one i of the most important depart ments of the city. The people are entitled to the fullest possible pro- tection, andi law- and order must ! prevail. The degree of efficiency - of a police department is hot necessarily reflected in the .large number of arrests and fines.' col lected, i but ! rather' in ; governing the city; in such manner: as . will make few arrests' necessary. 'Our police officers,. In ' enforcing the laws, should always be courteous but firm, and their conduct should always be ftMcli as to . command due respect for the law, tax law enforcement breeds contempt and furnishes ai " dangerous stepping- stone toward the undermining of our government.'
