"Ed" Boyce, Rhinelander, Wis, To the Voters of Rhinelander: As a candidate for your Mayor, I have been giving much thought to the many problems that will confront the new administration. There are men in each ward seeking the alderman office who, if elected, in my judgment are well qualified to direct the affairs of the city in a business-like manner. I believe that each voter should study the qualifications of each of the candidates. And each voter should make it a point to vote next Tuesday so the city as a whole may benefit by your judgment, No doubt attempts will be made to persuade you to vote for certain candidates. This is still a free country and you have a right to vote as you please.

Your mayor should have the qualifications to properly handle the city's affairs in a manner so the entire city will benefit. I believe I have these qualifications, I have lived here for many years. I own my home and am a taxpayer, i started work as a day laborer, so I know the wage earner's problems. I worked my way up to the position as manager of the Wisconsin Public Service Corporation's operations in the northern part of the state. I have had a vast amount of experience in financing, construction work and utility operations.

This is quite similar to that of water, street and sewer departments. There are many street improvements and water and sewer extensions urgently needed in the outlying parts of the city. These have been neglected in the past. The property owners affected are taxpayers and are entitled to consideration. We will now have truly representative government.

I am at present on the retired list and, frankly, I do not like it. I would like again to be of service to my many friends in the city of Rhinelander. I have no present business or interests. There-lore 1 can and will devott all the lime rjeco: 5 to city Jf ejected your mayor, all will receive fair and equal treatment Your tax dollar will be used io the best advantage. will work harmoniously and co-operatively with the aldermen you elect With your help, and the help oj (J ur aldermen, ut- tan wake Rhinelander a better community.
