If anybody is expecting a bit
ten' comment from me on the
election results he will be disap
pointed. 1 am entirely satisfied
with the results and a.) cents
richer as the result of a bet with
Leon on my own position in the
voting.
Mr. Lanier is. I believe, as sin
cere as a man could be in his
desire for the improvement and
welfare of his city. lie has made
mistakes (as who does not?), and
will most likely make more, but
not the same ones.
This coming year will be a
more difficult one than the bi
ennium just finishing for the
mayor. Greater problems are in
the offing requiring careful fi
mincing. It is to be hoped that
the thoughtful people in Seward
will take mor interest in their
own behalf than in the past, and
that, whether Air. Lanier was
their choice or oat, the future
welfare of the city will be upper
most in the minds 01 our ni-opi- .
Tiie probit m is too vita! In a:i ;w
pei sonal feelings to interfere in
any way with what is b si for
the eeonoinic and moral iuture
of Seward.
Lanier's dream of more rec
reation for Seward children and
young people is one of long
standing. I have heard it ever
since my first meeting with him.
It he can succeed in putting his
plans for a skating rink, com
ply te with lights and music into
a reality, let’s get behind him —
he can't do it alone. This is the
plan which he outlined in an
interview on the Osbos Elec
trical Supply radio program last
week. It is good, and should be
supported.
He has received wide publi
city in Territorial newspapers
and praise from the Alaska De
pailment of Health for having
dost d the line in Seward, to
abolish prostitution in this city,
lie was elected by a £air major
ity vote of Seward qualified
voters. It is now up to the citi
zenry to cither take the same
stand or leave him behind the
eight ball to solve the contingent
problem alone.
Eugene in. i-.mier is me mayor
of S~ ward. ri iie cit\ s suce ss
or failure in the next two .wars
will depend upon whether the
people stand staunchly behind
their choice with the support
that is due 1 hn in that office.

180 Horsepower!
Until you
drive it
you’ll
never know
wha i
does for you!
YOU'VE HEARD THE TALK about Chrvsler’s
revolutionary new V-8 FirePower engine . . . with
its 180 horsepower, its amazing smoothness and
acceleration . . .
NOW COME DRIVE THE REASON for all this
excitement. Here is the most revolutionary advance
in American motor car engine design in 27 years!...
HERE'S 180 HORSEPOWER ... a full 20 horse
power more than that of the next most powerful
American passenger car engine! . . .
A NEW KIND OF HIGH COMPRESSION . . .
The first Hemispherical Combustion Chamber in an
American car engine actually puts to work more of
the energy contained in the fuel than other engines.
HERE'S EXCITING PERFORMANCE . . . respon
siveness, acceleration, smoothness, which no other
passenger car engine built in this country can equal
today. And you can have it with FirePower even
on non-premium grade gasoline.
HERE'S THE SAFETY OF POWER-IN-RESERVE
greater than you’ve ever had at your command
_a new high in the instant responsiveness which
is the very essence of safety on today’s highways!
YOU'LL LIKE CHRYSLER'S POWER BRAKING,
TOO . . . smoother, gentler, swifter stops at any
speed than you've ever known. At the touch of
your toe, power from the engine helps put on the
brakes . . . reduces foot pressure by as much as
two-thirds!
AND HYDRAGUIDE . . . THE NEW POWER.
STEERING! It makes driving a car a brand new
experience. At your touch on the wheel, hydraulic
power provides four-fifths of the steering energy.
Even at a standstill, you can turn the wheels with
your thumb and one finger! A great safety feature.
COME DRIVE IT . . . ONLY A RIDE CAN SHOW YOU WHAT ONLY
