Doesn’t Obey His Orders” Youngstown, Ohio, Dec. L. Oles, Youngstown’s spec mayor-elect, arrived home receni: from a vacation in Florida ready. we said to “clean up the city” and “tire anyorfe who doesn’t/obey orders” wieu he takes office next Sunday. Oles made political history here by: running as an independent candidate, | i defeating the Republican incumbent! by over 500 votes and the Democratic: candidate by over 5,000. The city aud-} itor received a request from Oles in} Flerida asking for a “thorouch in-| voice” of the city “just as if 1 ao going to buy it.” “I want to know how much mon the city of Youngstown owes,” he wrote, “whom they owe it to and wher. | it is due. I want to know who owes! the city cf Youngstown. I want to know where the money is coming from’, to pay the bills. I want to know what stocks we have on ‘hand, shch is horse feed and supplies, gasoline in the tanks, stationery and ink and lead pencils, also the amount of coal amount of cash in the bank.” Shortly after the balloting Mayor Fred J, Warnock, defeated for re-elee: tion, issued citing court. show that Oles’ promise to give his salary to charity constituted a bribe} ‘%o the poor, and therefore disqualified him. Petitions to the courts were pre- ‘pared, but were dropped and no con: | test now is in sight. ! Oles went into the produce business | in New Castle, *Pa., 20: years ago with} a wheelbarrow and a barrel of pota-| tces as his sole stock in trade. he had built up a flourishing business | there in five years time he sold it to’ start a market in Youngstown, ‘to ‘be sun on what he called a psychological principle. Oles began presenting ec- centric newspaper adv he says, on Billy Sun evangel tactics, which he had seen in New” Castle, Slam-bang statements about women’s styles, his competitors, local politics and*current topics soon won him a reputation.’ _ , During, the mayoralty campaign Ole¥ announced in his “ad” one day that'he was going to run for mayor. “I just started it for a joke,” he said later. “But people took it seri- ously and pretty soon I took it seri- | ously too.” At length Oles' moved: Youngstown hotel from his country home, to establish a legal -residence,; and began to give Youngstqwn its most spectacular political campaign. There was no organiaztion by pre-| cincts ahd wards, but he and his wife held meetings all over the city—meet- ings for women only at which Mrs. Oles told what a fine husband and! father Mr. Oles is; and meetings for men at which Mr, Oles rushed on the platform, with arms in the air, shout- ing: “Here I am! Vote for Oles!” Few persons professed to believe that Oles had a chance until the re- turns began to come in election night. Nex? day a check on admissions by various men who had challenged Oles to wagers brought out the fact that by taking all bets he could make enough to. pay his campaign expenses and give himself and his family a trip to Morida. At various times during the cam- paign Oles announced. the following platform planks: Discontinuance of street, car serv- ice, and turning over the streets to jitneys. Firing the whole police force if it didn’t. clean up the town. Permit snooning in parlys under po- lice protection. Jail anyone who paid taxes under \ recent revaluation.
