She said she had not been con-acted or interviewed by any of the signers of the ad about her views on civic issues. By Alan Jones Sentinel Staff Writer Industry vs. tourism, unionization for city employes, and the intricacies of political advertising were among the topics raised when city council candidates spoke briefly last night before Local 230 of the International Association of Machinists. Candidates Arthur Koopmans and Richard Werner were the only candidates to speak. Incumbents Raymond Goodrich and Sam Leask III did not attend.

Candidate Eleanor Ed-mondson, who is secretary of the local, arranged the meeting and attended, but did not speak. She said union members already had heard her views on city issues. Koopmans said his purpose in running is to serve, not to elevate himself. In council work, he said, he would always attempt to find what the majority of the public wants on each issue, rather than following the wishes of a minority clique. Answering a question from the floor, Koopmans said he felt attracting industry is the only way for Santa Cruz to grow.

The city doesn't want heavy industry, but light industry and "thinking" industries, he said. Santa Cruz is not really a vacation city, Koopmans said. The tourist season is only about three months, but residents have to eat all year, he pointed out. Werner said his main aim on the council would be to pass on to his successor a city "greater, better and more beautiful" than it was transmitted to him. He explained that greater does not necessarily mean bigger, and that by more beautiful he meant a way of life and not simply more esthetic.

Werner said he has built his career on the belief "There's always a better way." Thursday, Friday, Saturday Specials BAKED FRESH DAILY Try These Today!
