Ask Me Ajii0flltér ls Winnetka a better managed town than Highland Park? It you don't think so why vote for a city manager? If we do not need a city manager, why violate the law to get one? Whom has Mr. Lewis selected for our benevolent despot! A city -trer and a which form of government are mutually destructive. The appointment of one would violate the other. Whieh do you prefer to retain? . Old charter towns like Glencoe or Winnetka may need a village manager, but why impose one on Highland Park which has five department heads? If a city manager is legally impossible under our form of government, is it honest to promise one if elected? Does Mr. Lewis stand for honesty or eiliciency?_ " - Is thecity manager's salary to be fixed at 87,500 or SMt.00e Who is slated for the job? Has the Citizens' Taxpayers Association consented to such a diversion of the taxpayers' money? Or will it enjoin such misapplication of trust funds? If men of experience in municipal affairs can be elected mayor and commissioners, and if they are willing to give to their duties the time demanded, why elect other men who will turn over their jobs to a city manager of whom the voters know nothing? If an ordinance creating the otriee of city manage? were .asied, would it not be inviolation of the statute under which we oper- ate. and would not the payment of the salary of the name: he enjoined by the Citizens' Taxpayers Association? . ' Is it decent to dump all our executive and administrative pow as and responsibilities in the lap of a city manager when.othér men Are elected to perform those duties and to exercise those powers? _ Does Mr. Lewis favor an ordinance creating an “Administrative Department" (like Glencoe) which shall supersede the five departments we now have under the commission form of government? . _ Are we a blind: of boobs who can't govern ourselves? him we have a superman bearing the label of city manager? Why this anxiety to be elected mayor and commissioners if the Lewis candidates plan to abdicate so soon as elected? Will the Lewis city manager be a real manager with " the powers. duties and responsibilities invested in him by the Man- agerial Form of Government Act? Or will he he a stmttert shirt bearing the laundry mark of a city manager? ls it time for a dime from the Commission Form of Government to the old Cities and Villages Act so we can create an "iee which won“ not be legal under our present form of government: Does Mr. Lewis know what he is talking about? Or is he only kidding as? If he means what he says. ought not his platform be deflated and debunked? Glencoe and Winnetka have the highest tax rates in the state. Does Mr. Lewis think' the taxpayers of Highland Park will stand for a big boost in taxes to my city manager to do the work of the otriees to which Mr. Lewis and his associates aspire? If elected mayor will Mr. Lewis give up his position as ries idem of the Highland Park Club and devote all his time to the selection of a city manager?
