- Description:
- The Clifford Baldowski cartoon depicts a rat in his hole typing a letter that reads, "McDaniel-Glenn Project Resident ManagerDear Mister Mayor: Keep up the good work. Pay no attention to all those gripes about us from the tenants. If they don't like a few friendly rats around the house, they can have somewhere else, right, your honor? We're mighty glad you turned down that exterminator from Gwinnett County who wanted to donate his services to get rid of us. What's this "donate" business? Imagine, some guy from Gwinnett wants to do something for free with all your pals standing 'round waiting for a little of that long green from the taxpayers. Congratulations on your determination to improve city-union relationships. Our union guys cooperate swell. They leave plenty of garbage around to gnaw on and never bother us--" He is typing from a notebook that says, "If we ever establish a RATHOLE OF FAME, some of your Housing Authority projects will be the first to be entered."
