Manning (Continued from pae< >ne)t signed statement, “are beginning to catch the imperativeness of the issue involved. Some few have ex pressed to me the need to meet together to discuss our dilemma to the end of unity of ‘we the people.’ ” It is preferable to any angry de mand on the board in another “mass” meeting. "Therefore, I am calling interes ted or curious citizens to meet Sunday afternoon, June 15th at 3 p.m. in the high school auditor ium. We will answer any question relating to the issue.” PETITIONS “KILLED” Mr. Slaughter also announced that he has “killed” the petitions ; circulated asking the board to re tain Manning “since the issue has become so focused and by virtue of the fact that our board of com- i missioners are aware of it. He said j the board should “do what by 1 now they should know is their full responsibility.” Manning, who has indicated that he has no desire to buck the board’s decision, declined comment this morning, but said Mr. Slaughter had advised him of the meeting. Mr. Slaughter said that whatever action citizens desire to take will he decided at the meeting on Sun- : day. "I'm going to leave it up to the ' people.” said Slaughter. "I realize that when men are faced with the 1 truth, t’/iey act.” SEVERAL COURSES Several courses of action have been suggested. Among the pro posals are: to demand the resig- 1 nation of Mayor Hanna and every member of the city council; to \ (start impeachment proceedings against the entire council: to make a formal demand on the board Monday night to rescind the act ion, to continue to bring such pres sure on the city council that they will act in desperation to relieve themselves of pressure. An attorney questioned today con cerning the possibility of impeach ing the city council said he saw little or no chance of that. He pointed out that the discretionary powers of the board are too broad. However, a resolution asking them to resign may be adopted Sunday. Mr. Slaughter, who says his group is interested only in the moral is sues involved, said today the pur pose of the meeting is to. try to search for the truth. v “We want to meet like' jpintleV.. men in a dignified manner,” he said. He said the meeting would be open to any and all citizens, re gardless of their position or views. Mr.’ Slaughter issued another statement today in which he dir ected questions at members of the board. HITS CITY BOARD Following is the text of this statement: I Mr. Coats: > <* i j Did you reverse yourself because Mr. Manning was a personal friend, brother-deacon, or because he was ONE man of “we the people" whose rights were ignored and wantonly ; violated? IF he had been an ene my or competitor would you have i been willing to let the knife re main in his back? How big does an American have to be to deserve respect is a ques tion from the inner self of EVERY man who begins to wonder if any , man means EXACTLY what he says. I prod you, Leek, to set you free. The truth, not my idea, is the agent. Mr. Commissioners and Mr. Mayor: What’s the personal grudge against Manning that justifies a refusal of even the courtesy of a lie if nothing more as a reason for the kick in his pants? Business men. all of you, and I’ll bet you never dismissed an employee with SILENCE. Are the “pressure boys” letting you know that it’s not nice to re gard a man’s rights lest they lose their kitty? Intelligent men you are. all of you. You wouldn’t allow a bunch of selfish hoodlums to think for you and let you do their dirty work. Now would you? And. there’s nothing in such a thankless job for you, is there? You’ll tell us the truth too, won’t you? Competence, efficiency and honesty won’t be too hard w ork for us. will it? We’re used to it! We can’t afford to rest on “the right to my own opinion” when it is barelv possible another City Manager will make the periodic parade through City Hall in ??? months. And, who knows, it could be your friend then. That might hurt. Mr. John Q. Public: Do you intend to dilly-dally with your “opinions,” or make up your mind that the time is NEVER “to morrow, maybe,” but NOW to stand for what we piously call liberty? Who is boss anyway, “liberty in law” or “opinions in confusion?" Do you want to surrender your birttiright for the privilege of poll ing of confused opinions on your heritage of freedom? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT or WHERE YOU ARE GOING? IF our issue is clear by now, it should be clear that it IS NOT the name of the man—but—the fact that a man is at stake. It could be you. It might be. It ought to be if we fail to uphold the faith we profess in any individual man’s DIGNITY. VALUE and MEANING and his divmely ; given right to be himself without interference from any other man or group of men un'awfuily. In the final analysis man is God’s creature and to mistreat him is to mistreat God. To refuse to believe in man is to refuse to believe God. To fail man is to fail God. Deiwfcracy is NOT man’s idea, but its meaning is expressed in man. The deepest yearning In ev ery man is to be free. IF HE IS EVER FREE ONLY TRUTH WILL SET HIM FREE! Respectfully, B. O. SLAUGHTER.
