Sef S312 N. ith st., Installment of Serial Not Quite Sure Yet Just How Long His Journalistic Attempt Will Continue or What Climax Will Be Mayor Rrown today, In this, tho @econd installment of his new serial, “An Answer to All the Critics of My |Administration,” centers his atten: “lon on letters that were written by ‘Btar readers and published in this paper. The mayor answers these “crit. eisms and attacks, © Brown's sertal is running in elther three or four chapters—the mayor dant sure just yet—and he doesn't Know, either, just what the climax {will be, and The Star is publishing “tat the mayor's request. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR: In going over the list of letters In ‘The Star that were sent in as a re- sult of your query, “Has Brown Made Good?" I find that 17 out of 22 say that I have made good. REGARDING BROWN’'S “SEPARATE ACCOUNT" T notice that Mr. Joe S. Freeman | complaing that T have a separate bank account, but sin his first paragraph {t ts plain to Mbe seen that Mr. Freeman would not | de for me under any circumstance. | "The facts are that I have no bank Account whatsoever other than my Tegular business bank account. The fund that he speaks of is a fund “Bet aside from the 10 cents that ach one pays to go Into public @ances, and the treasurer of this fund draws checks on {t for any ‘worthy, charitable or humane pur ‘Pose that I request him to. If Mr. Freeman will talk with the Mother Ryther Child home, Japan- ese telief people, the Richmond Sehool for Subnormal children at 2445 Minor ave, N., also with Mr. | Dowd, who is the treasurer and| Keeper of this fund, I do not think | that he will have any complaint, nor ‘would he criticize a man's motives in giving or securing funds for these worthy causes, On the same date a Mr. R. C. ‘McAllister, pretending to live at 1306 Harrison st., wrote and gave/ addresses of card rooms, but upon Investigation a report came to me| that there was no such number and that Mr, McAllister has reg- istered from a vacant lot. | He says that I promised a wide pen town to my supporters and that gambling has existed all dur-| ing the time that I have been In} Mr. McAllister is probably unaware | That card rooms in this city are I!-| eensed by ordinance of the city | council, and that licenses are O.

Room May Be | Just as Delightful. By MARIAN MOORE A cuddly corner of a davenport with a soft silken pillow to tuck under an elbow, a reading lamp that gives a light by which one can Feadily read, and a fireplace with B snapping wood fire—that is the Kind of a room that makes you long for cold, rainy evenings! It isn’t necessary to have a pal- face to secure such comforts of home. The best part of this group- ing is the fact that it was taken from a living room thirteen feet ery The sum total of furniture 4m the room is the davenport, one| Cozy and Beautiful. frm chair te match, a Windsor! hair, a small desk, and the end ble in the picture. But the room an air of dignity and elegance} @hich might well be copled in a Seeger room. There’s a mighty responstbility | ‘esting upon the davenport which @ne puts into a room of small size. Tf it is built along massive lines, ‘vith upholstery bearing a vivid de- sign, the room is overwhelmed.. On the other hand, a davenport along knife-like lines, upholstered with a mall pattern tapestry, has an alr of solidity and comfort which makes the room a joy tolts owner. ‘The lamp in the picture is a blue and white Chinese vase with an electric attachment and a corn yel- Tow silk shade.

Mr. McAllister probably does not know that I have never signed any of the card room licenses, and T am now advising him that I never have. Also on the rd, Mr. J. L. Causa. land, 1303 Ninth ave, writes and ts against me on the question of taxa tion and appointments, On the ques- tion of taxation, I have already answered Mr, Causland. He says that my appointments to important offices have been made on the basis of want politics and not of expert efficiency, Surely this man cannot be acquainted with Chief of Police Wm, B, Severyns, Robert 1. Proctor, superintendent of buildings; J, D. Blackwell, city Engineer; W. D. Barkhuff, superintendent of streets and sewers; Clark Jackson, superin, tendent of public utilities; Geo, Rus- jsell, superintendent of water; J. D. Ross, superintendent of ight and pow- er; Major Paul Edwards of the har. bor department, and overseas veteran Harry O'Brien, inspector of police. WHY DIDN'T HE BRING EVIDENCE IN? Mr. Causlana says that I have al- lowed gambling, bootlegging and other vices to riddle the police force with graft. This of course is a loose assertion that any man can make. I am satisfied that if Mr. Causland ts & good citizen that he has no knowledge of any such thing exist ing, because if ha did, he would have come and informed me so that I could get the evidence, There is no question but what there always will be some gambling, bootlegging and vice in a city of this hamlet thruout the breadth of this land, gambling, length and there is some some drinking and some vice, and the sins of the world are/ co-extensive thruout the world, but the records will show that wo have been diligent in enforcing the law, One gentleman by the name of Fred J. Hankee wrote in from Zenith, | Wash,, but he talks like a rattlebox and his questions show that he has no conception of his subject, surmise that his letter ts induced by some selfish motive, Next I shall answer my former democratic friend and warm support- er, Mr. Flagg, and tell why he has the political cramps.
