4 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28. 1922 SCHWARTZ OPPOSES THOMPSON REGIME Against Thompsonism Any Form in By SPECTATOR The friends of U. S. Schwartz point with pride to his record. "Saved Chicago six million dollars in his six vears as alderman! Knocked a cool five million overload off the Budget! Worked out the well-known "Schwartz Traction Plan" approved by over one hundred business men's associations. Schwartz was the prime factor in ending this summer's street car strike." Today he is a candidate for mem- bership on the Cook County Board of Review, a candidacy endorsed by such representative citizens as Mrs. Joseph Bowen, John Montgomery, Laird Bell, Amelia Sears, Harriett Vittum, and Ernest O. Best. A representative of this paper called on him in his law offices at Clark and Madison and asked him to talk about himself, tell his story to the voters in the North Shore towns. "I was born of immigrant parents up in Milwaukee. When I was 24 years old the state of Illinois gave me license to practice law. "The very next year Carter Har- rison, then mayor, appointed me As- sistant City Prosecutor. In that of- fice I won out against the Street Rail- way company. Forced them to give 'their passengers more heat and bet- ter air. Collected several thousand dollars in fines. Let's see, what else? I prepared and supported in the courts the 'Weights and Measures Ordinance.' "In 1916 I was elected Alderman. Soon after I was put on the Finance Committee. Been at it ever since. Wherever I saw a chance to prac- tice economy I took it and fought hard to save the City's money. "In 1919 I was made chairman of the Local Transportation Committee of the Council. I worked out the so- called 'Schwartz Traction Plan. It's a suggested solution of Chicago's complicated traction problem. I be- lieve it will lower fares without re- ducing wages. It aims to permit the building of subways and of elevated and street extensoins. It's generally regarded as a good plan. "You know all about the street car strike a few months back and my part in ending it. Hot and heavy days for me! "The Council has paid me a sin- cere compliment by appointing me to serve on three important committees. Naturally I feel honored! "I'm justified, I believe, in asking Cook County citizens to elect me member of the Board of Review. "Make it plain that I'm against Thompsonism in every form. I've fought it in the city, and I'll fight it in the county!" Bunco Party and Dance Announced by Arcanians The Winnetka council No. 1131, Royal Arcanum, is giving a Bunco party and Dance at Winnetka Com- munity House, Tuesday, November 28, at 8 o'clock. This party and dance is open to the general public, it is announced by Arcanum officials, and will be the oc- casion of a great Thanksgiving fes- tivity. Excellent music is promised. Funds realized from this social event will be devoted to the promotion of athletics in the council. Richards Will Lecture on "Six Modern Books" On Wednesday evenings from No- vember 1 to December 6, inclusive, Rev. James Austin Richards, of the Winnetka Congregational church, will give a series of talks on "Six Modern Books and Their Religious Meaning." Last season there was a demand that his usual Tuesday morn- ing addresses should be placed in the evening to enable others to attend. It is hoped that this series will both meet this demand and appeal to those who desire a mid-week service. Dis- cussion will be encouraged. The series of books to be discussed is as follows: Nov. 1--"The Imminence of God," by Borden P. Bowne, late professor in Boston University. Nov. 8--"Art and Religion," by Rev. Von Ogden Vogt, of Chicago. Nov. 15--"On the Edge of the Prime- val Forest," by Prof. Albert Schweitz- er, of Strasburg and Equatorial Africa. Nov. 22--"The Divine Initiative," by Prof. H. R. Macintosh, of New College, Edinburgh. Nov. 29--"The New Society," by Walter Rathenau, Statesman in the German Republic. Dec. 6--"The Everlasting Mercy," John Masefield, English poet. These book talks will be open to all who care to come. .
