"The Kind of a Mayor Detroit Needs."

"Detroit needs a whale of an executive in its City Hall.
It must pick that sort of character if its splendid new tradition
is to live."

Detroit News, December 9, '22.

"Plain Business."

"It is simple business, tremendous business, that demands
it business executive of the broadest caliber."

Detroit News, December 16, '22.

"No Man is Too Big."

"If Detroit wants the right sort of man for mayor, Detroit
has got to get busy and pick him. It wants a man who has a
record of character and service behind him His busi-
ness interests probably will be considerable; he will be reluc-
tant to leave them. But Detroit will insist that public service
is paramount."

Detroit Times, December 8, 1922.

Detroit's Next Mayor.

Detroit Free Press, December 21, 1922.

"Elect Trained Man—Couzens, Senator, Would
Ban Chronic Office-Seeker as Mayor."

"Detroit should select a man as broad in experience in
executive work as possible. Ile should never have held any
previous politicai job. Detroit needs a man who will realize
that he has one job—to serve the people—forgetting that he
has friends to reward or enemies to punish; a man who will
not work for political advancement, for that will come if he
gone about the job of mayor in the proper manner.
"This is the man that Senator James Couzens would select
as mayor of Detroit."

Detroit News, December 18, 1922.

Senator Couzens Said:

"It is my interpretation that the mayor is more responsible
for the conduct of each and every city department than the
appointee is and the people look to him to assume that respon-
sibility. Running a city the size of Detroit is a business not
a pastime; departments must be co-ordinated and recognized to
work together like any other big business . . . . I feel
certain the public now expects a mayor to be general manager
and to assume entire executive responsibility. for the conduct
of local government."
