REGIS'!ERI Elimination of Mayor's Salary, resulting in a saving of $3,000.00 annually. We believe in the employment of a competent private citizen as Street Commissioner, who can perform his duties without political favor, and who will be directly responsible to the Mayor and City Council. It is considered desirable of combining the office of Street Commissioner and City Engineer, which if found practical will re- sult in further saving. If elected, the City's business will be conducted on a strictly Budget System, which Budget will be prepared and predicated upon the retirement of a substantial amount of the city’s bonded indebted- ness. Upon assuming control of the City management, we will publish a complete financial statement showing the City's finan- cial condition, and further pledge ourselves to publish a Financial Statement quarterly thereatfter. Efforts will be made to re-finance the present Bonded Indebtedness, at a lower rate of interest, according to good business judgment and present business conditions. We favor the proposed Library, subject to ratification of the taxpay- ers, and financed by Federal Aid. We favor the continued maintenance of the present high efficiency of the Juneau Volunteer Fire Department. Police Department—We believe in an adequate policé department, for the protection of our citizenry, ‘and full cooperation with Fed- eral Authorities for the suppression of crime. Schools—We believe in the highest efficiency in our schools,—how- ever the administration of School affairs rests with the School Board, and all reasonable recommendations received from it as to teachers’ salaries, improvements and maintenance will receive fav- oable consideration. City Appointments—No pledges or promises have been made, nor will be made to any person seeking appointive offices. Boat Harbor—We favor the construction of a Boat Harbor and will use our best efforts to secure Federal Aid in the acccomplishment of this dire need. Consideration will also be given to making im- provements to our present small boat facilities, to take care of im- mediate needs. If elected, we pledge ourselves to conduct the City's affairs with the same degree of economy as our own business. NOTE: If you voted in the 1935 city election it is not necessary to register again.
