CHIEF SEATTLE LETTERS TO CHIEF SEATTLE ‘Dear Chief: Last Saturday our sheriff, Matt Starwich destroyed the copper stills, the result of his raids over the past six months, and in. stead of sending them down to some junk man, as many department heads might have done, ho called the disabled veterans organization “and offered them the proceeds from the sale of this copper. You might think, Chief, that this was just a little publicity move, and considered it good advertising, but 1 want to let you know just how much the $200 means to the organization that is trying so hard to obliviate the conditions that the disabled men have had to endure. It is true that the Community Chest provides our organization with several hundred dollars a month to be used in relief and service work, but ff one stops to think of the hundreds of men who are still suffering and will always suffer from their war disabilities and who have not received recognition by the Veterans’ bureau; an act of kindness like that of the sheriff Saturday, should not pass unrecognized. _ Ido not know of any one who can do as Much with it as our friend, Old Chief Seattle. Sincerely yours, F. B. KNAPP, District Service Officer, 13th District, Seattle, Wash. “7 fe My Dear Chief: Thanks for your words of encouragement to the * Olympic Hotel.

THE SEATTLE STAR (PAID ADVERTISEMENT) MONDAY, MARCH 10, 1994 AND PROSPERITY Two years ago capital and labor, employer and employe, in the interests of both, for the first time in the political history of Seattle, joined hands,“‘pooled’’ their votes and selected a mayor pledged to a sane, constructive business administration RESULT: TWO YEARS OF UNBROKEN PEACE! Two years without a strike or a lockout to mar or impede the progress of the “Largest city of its age in the World.” Two years during which our building and bank clearances broke all previous records. Two years of enormous gains in population. Two years during which the percentage ‘of home owners increased to the unrivaled figure of 46,8—the best showing of any city in the United States, In that period savings bank deposits, postal receipts, real estate transfers, building permits, telephone installations, automobile licenses— everything, in fact, by which growth and pros- perity are measured, gained enormously. Seattle’s foreign and domestic commerce in 1923 reached the gigantic total of 6,393,529 tons, passing San Francisco; and Seattle is now fourth largest shipping metropolis in the United States. Mayor Brown does not presume to take all the credit for this wonderful achievement but— Mayor Brown has fulfilled his pledge to both labor and business. Every civic organization, every legitimate business or manufacturing concern; welfare organizations, American Legion, fraternal bod- ies and citizens generally that have had occa- sion during these two years to ask the support of your chief executive in their various activi- ties will admit that Mayor Brown has given more personal attention and greater co-opera- tion than any other man who has been honored with this office. Mayor Brown inaugurated his peace and prosperity program immediately after his elec- tion in 1922. For the preceding five years Seattle had been torn by continuous labor troubles, Successful in his own business, enjoying the respect and confidence of all who know him intimately, Mayor Brown has always been a sincere friend of the working people. “Forward, March” C. A. Bross, Manager Polk & Co., publishers of Seattle directory—‘‘Our figures for last year show Seattle had increased its population to ap- proximately $49,525. While we do not have the figures compiled as yet, we estimate the figures will show a population of 880,000 this year, indi- cating a strong, healthy growth.” Col. George B. Lamping, Seattle Port Commis- sioner—‘Last year the Port of Seattle had the most successful year since the war. Everything looks favorable for prosperity during 1924, and we expect to handle more business through the port than ever before in its history.” E. Rex Smith, Vice-President, Chamber of Commerce, and Chairman of the Manufacturers’ Exposition, 1923—“The exhibit last year was an unqualified success for both exhibitors and the public. About 300,000 persons visited the exhibit, a large number coming from outside communi- ties, establishing Seattle as the great industrial and trading center of the Pacific Northwest. We expect to repeat the exhibit again this year on a larger and more attractive scale than ever before.” Seattle Clearing House figures show that the clearings of this city in January, 1924, were $175,788,614 as compared with $153,236,609 for the same month in 1923, and $120,296,550 in 2, indicating Seattle’s progress financially is increasing rapidly. Seattle building permits in January, 1924, totaled $3,341,435, as compared with only $1,045,- 968 in January, 1923, and $1,806,200 for January, Real estate transfers during January, of this year, totaled $1,685,272 as against $1,585,298 in January, 1923. ; Reports from sixteen cities throughout the country show that Seattle's home ownership gained 14.7 in the last 23 years, and that 46.3 per cent of the citizens of this city own their own homes. Port Warden, Paul Edwards—‘“Seattle’s for- eign and domestic commerce in 1923 reached the enormous total of 6,398,529 tons. We believe that during 1924 the increase will be continued and that this port will see the greatest gain in its history.” The reorganization of the Board of: Public Works, with Robert Proctor, past president of the Central Labor Council, as superintendent of buildings, so as to give fair representation to all classes of citizens, demonstrated the splendid spirit of fairness that governs every official acx of your present mayor. _ Fitness, ability and, above all, loyalty to the city’s interests are demanded in all appoint- ments. Partisan polities plays no part in Mayor Brown's conception of city government. Just a Word in Passing, to Mr. Lundin What selfish interest, Mr. Lundin, dictated the selection of Sherman C. Sawtelle, organizer, secretary and manager of Associated Indus- tries, for your chief adviser and campaign di- rector? ~ ; Why did you cast this “firebrand” into the present peaceful relations between employer and entre Do you want to destroy the present armony prevailing in Seattle’s indus- tries? In a personally signed advertisement, Mr. a 4 Lundin, in The Seattle Star, you say: “I have _ no paid workers.” In.a sworn statement of Primary Election expenses, filed with the city clerk last Friday, you admit, Mr. Lundin, that you paid Sawtelle | and three other workers the sum of $1,195.85. . Which statement is true, Mr. Lundin? 5, Py In spite of Mr. Lundin’s slanderous attacks on the good name of our beautiful city the United States Navy, in appreciation of last summer’s wholesome entertainment of its officers and sailors, this years will send a larger fleet for a six weeks’ visit—the longest stay yet. Such visits are permitted only after the most careful investigation of moral and health conditions, The tourist traffic will break all records this season. The new Olympic Hotel will be completed and opened in December. Merchants’ and Buyers’ Week will bring thousands to place orders with our factories and wholesale houses, to fill our hotels and help swell our bank clearances. . * Invitations and attractive literature extolling Seat-— tle are already going out to Knights Templar who are coming to the 1925 conclave in Seattle, One Hundred Thousand strong. Los Angeles, San "Francisco and Portland recently re-elected their respective mayors, assuring against radical changes in the present Pacific Coast program of progress. Can Seattle afford to experiment in the midst of this era of unbounded prosperity ? Labor is happy and contented, business is pro perous, yet Lundin threatens a return to chaos and strife. Mayor Brown closes his campaign with an — appeal to the wise judgment and business sense of voters and citizens r Let’s Continue Seattle’s “Forward, March” VOTE FOR MAYOR BROWN AND PROSPERITY!
