System i Mayor Eves Answers Anonymous Committee To The Voters of Cumberland: During the closing days of this campaign, a series of political advertisements which attempt to "smear" the present City administration, have appeared in the local papers. These advertisements were authorized by a so-called "Committee For Better Cjty Government." Mr. William R. Carscaden is named as Treasurer of this Committee, but apparently none of the other members care to be known, as their names are not disclosed. The making of last minute attacks by an anonymous committee is one of the most ancient and least creditable forms of political activity, and I am confident that very few citizens of Cumberland will be misled by such tactics.

The advertisements are limited to vague generalities, with no specific facts to support them, and they.are totally devoid of any suggested remedies for the difficulties which are alleged to exist. Nor do they indicate which, if any, of the projects sponsored by this administration, that they would have eliminated. They are also confusing, because they are particularly critical of the City's financial situation, and at the same time, they praise the Commissioner who is in charge of the City's finances. Actually, the City's finances are alright, our expenses as a whole are well within the appropriations, and the only foreseeable future difficulty will be the payments which the City is obligated to make in connection with the present Cumberland Thruway, including the industrial Boulevard. These payments are.

unusual, they must be made no matter who is elected, and there will be no difficulty about the payments if the Urban Development Bond Issue, which is designed to take care of them, is approved. Furthermore, all of the present City Commissioners voted for the Ordinance proposing this Bond Issue, and they voted for all other Bond Issues of this administration, except that the Finance Commissioner opposed what was by far the smallest one of $150,000.00, to build a new Nurses Home for the Memorial Hospital. It thus appears that the Mayor and Council have been practically unanimous on finanical matters, and I respectfully submit that the anonymous "Committee For Better City Government" is all mixed up when it criticizes two Commissioners and praises the third Commissioner for doing practically the same thing with regard to the City's finances. Sincerely Yours, Roy W. Eves By Authority of the Candidate.
