92 on my right turned to Mr. Toth, a decent person, and said, "Oh - it's politics". Politics - crud. We don't.need politics in this town. And we're beginning to get it. And I'm not about to listen to it.anymore. I've had alot of fun, I want to thank those backers that I have had, they have been great people and it has been fun working with the majority. We have great Depar.tment Heads, Gus and our two Chiefs over there on the right, we've always been able to untangle our problems. But when it gets into the political mess that it's in today, I want no part of it. I think of this as I look at Al Hamilton's picture up there. Thank you. That's the end of this month."
