Politics Never Takes A Holiday In Chicago.

If We Are To Succeed, We Must Recognize That The Community Redevelopment Is Not Solely The Rehabilitation Of Housing, Or Putting A Mall In The Business Strips.

But I Am Committed To Keeping This City A Strong And Viable Center For Commerce And Industry, For Continuing To Make It A Place Of Opportunity For Its Citizens.

Chicago Kept Industry, Attracted New Business, Became The Center For Convention Trade And Transportation.

I Am Here Before You Tonight To Dedicate This Administration To Bringing A New Renaissance Of Neighborhood Life And Community Spirit, A Renewal Of Confidence In The Future Of Our City And A Revival Of Opportunity For All Chicago.

City Employees Will Be Hired And Promoted Because Of Their Abilities - Without Outside Interference.
