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.

We must care. We must all care. And while I am working, while the governments is working, so must the people also work.

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.

For my part, I plan to work out a fair and adequate redistribution of city services to all city neighborhoods.

Chicago kept industry, attracted new business, became the center for convention trade and transportation.

City employees will be hired and promoted because of their abilities - without outside interference.

Our universities and museums are respected around the country.
