Charges “Incompetency, Extrava- gance and Corruption.” By the Assoclated Press. investigation of what he termed unpar- alleled “incompetency, inefficiency, ex- travagance, corruption and crime” in the municipal government was de- manded in a resolution submitted to the City Council yesterday by Alderman Ar- thur F. Albert. 3 The resolution, denouncing Mayor William Hale Thompson and his ad- ministration, created a sensation in the Council - meeting, at which Mayor Thompson had just advanced a plan for relieving unemployment. The mayor | made no comment as the resolution was ‘read. It was referred to the Council | Committee on Economy, Efficiency and Rehabilitation. Declaring that the inquiry should start in the mayor’s office, the resolu- i tion urged that the time the mayor has devoted to his duties be learned to de- termine whether or not “more time has been given to sf political demon- strations, parades, shows, conventions or the like.” It declared that because the mayor had “abandoéned the situation” lesser officials have “arrogated themselves the powers and duties of the mayor's office,” and that as a result the oity's affairs have been administered by “these usurpers for their own personal or po- litical self-aggrandizement.” The resolution charged that the city | has witnessed a complete breakdown in law enforcement and declared that “during the last three and one-half years the things the mayor has said and done and his fallures have caused or encouraged a large part of the crime and corruption -which. has blackened the name of Chicago the world over.”. — 3 TOWNS TO CELEBRATE OPENING OF NEW ROAD ‘Westernport - McCoole Highway Festivities to Begin October 81 and Last Three Days.

But if you want real luxury and still better performance, you'll have to pay a higher price. ; It’s the same thing with buying fuel for your car. If price per gallon determines your choice, there’s Orange American Gas--giving the user of regular-priced gas the best perform- ance in that price class. But if low cost per mile is your yardstick and you want the best possible motor performance, there’s Amoco- Gas, sold at a higher price because it does more and is worth more. The choice is yours. And whether you buy Amoco-Gas or Orange American Gas, you're going to get good, dependable performance ecause each is the best that the market affoeds at its respective price.
