GOVERNMENT BY CITY
MANAGER
Columbus - Enquircr-Sun: 1
The success of commission-manager
government in Columbus, as shown by
the reduction, during the first six
months under the new regime, of
#135,000 in the city’s indebtedness,
is in line with the expericnce of oth
er municipalitics that have substitut
ed certralized authority and respon:
gibility for the unweildy ecouncilman
je and departmental system, Under
the caption, «Government by City
Managers” Lindsay Rogers, associatc
professor of government in Colum+
bia University, gives ip the current
igsue of the World’s Work some ex
amples of other cities that have prof
ited by the charge.
In Norfolk Va., since Charles E.
Ashburner (the first city manager of
the first eity manager town Staunton
' Va.,,) went ther to handle the business
affairs the city has put in hundreds
' of new strect lights; it has increased
the parks and playgrounds; & munici
pal market that will cost half a mil
lion is under way; nearly two million
have been spent for schools; more
than ten miles of new sewers have
been built and twenty onme miles of
new gtreet paving have been'laid; a
fivg million dollar water plant hae
been built and the city gets its water
sO. cheaply and the service pays for
itself so casily that it is considering
offering® manufacturing plants ' free
water as an inducement to come tc
Norfolk; municipal terminals and a
municipal grain elevator have been
built from which the city derives
congiderable revenne; the city’s
credit is better than ever before and
borrowing are well under the limit of
danger. : l
In Dubuque lowa, the new govern
mont wound up its first year with a
current surplus of $30,000 as contrast:
ed with a current doficit of $60,000
inherited from the mayor and counell:
administration.ln Sacramento, Cal, it
cost $123,000 less to run the city for
a year and a more extensive program
of municipal improvement thaun ever
before was carried out. In Waltham,
Mass.,, while labor am} material in
creased 54 and 82 pe reént, respective:
ly the tax rate went up only eight
per cent and the city gave more effi
cient scrviee. In Wichitia, Kan,, the
manager built a sewer with direet
jabor for $214,000 when the lowest
contractor’s bid was $316,000. In Au
birn, Maine, for the first time in
twenty years a fiscal year ended
without a deficit or a flcating debt!
¢:ln other cities’’ says Mr Rogers
“1),0 benficial results have been
just as decisive, The general outline
of the stories ars the same although
the details differ vastly.”’
Sinea the birth of the commission
manager plan ten yecars ago, nearly
two huiidred cities have changed to
this form of government, while near
ly a hundred others employ ¢ity man
agers by ordinance. The number is
rapidly increasing. January first
Cleveland the largest of the cities to
make the experiment, will begin op:
srations with a city manager who will
probably receive a salary twice that
of a memb® of the president’s cabi
net. .
On the general point of inereased
officiency of the new method of
city government, Mr. Rogers cites the
policy of one of the largest consulting
munigipal engineering firms in the
country = which is to quote
rates twenty per eent ‘‘lower for
consulting service to eity manager
towns than eclsewhere beeause of the
superior case with which business can
be accomplished and payment obtain:
ed.”
Thirty years ago, Lord Brycie wrote
in ¢“The American Commonwcalth’’ a
standard authority 'on American gov
ernment: ‘‘There is np denying that
the government of citics is the onc
conspicious failure of the United
b"mtvs” Mr. Rogers holds that, to
day, with the established success of
the ecity manager and commigsion
manager and commission manager
forms of government and the swing
toward these forms, the outlook in
municipal administration is distinetly
cneouraging.

Moonshine stills are responsible for
not less than 25 per cent of the fires
in the forests of the Pacific North
west, according to recports, These
stills are msually located in inaceessi:
ble places in the woods, where thej
dry timber and brush will take fire
from the smallest spark and get be
vond control before the fire-fighting
forces diseover the smoke. Unmis:
takable evidence of moonshining has
been found in the newly burned areas
Twenty-five epr cent of the coal
mines, employing 60 per cent of the
workers on full time, ean produce all

Marmaduke, Ark—Speaking of
Thedford’s Black-Drapght, which from

Nntfi"u “the family medicine,”
Mre, r B. Hill, of Route 1, this

“When the children get bilious, I
glve them a couple of good“doses, and
when we have sour stomach, headache,
or any liver or stomach trouble, we
use Bleck-Draught. It is an easy laxa
tive, and soon does the ‘work. I cer
tainly think it is one of the best rem
odles made.”
Black-Draught acts on the jaded
liver, gently, but positively, and helps
ft in its important function of throw

from the system.
* In thousands of h@useholds Black-

often is half the battle, and will often
