TER Municipal Commission has acted
wisely In giving TO the pubic, through tho
newspapers, the many proposed changes
IN tho charter bill pending before the Gem
eral Assembly. The tax payers now have
~ opportunity to learn the nature Of the
alterations and amendments suggested in
the course Of the charter discussion that
AAs been going on for months past. The
Commission should at once adopt such
Suggestions as the best Information In its
possession will warrant and send the bill!
back TO the Legislature with an urgent ap-,
peal for It's enactment.
II has never been more apparent than 1t
y At this time that our municipal govern
ment needs thorough reorganization
with the least possible deiay, Within the
past few days the old scheme for magni-
fcent new city hall to cost several hundred
thousand dollars, has been revived and we
would not be surprised If an effort should
be made to have Q bill passed authorizing
, loan for this purpose. The height of
wisdom and patriotism with some people
seems to be to pile up the city debt, in
crease the annual interest charges, and
thus 60 on steadily toward Republication or
bankruptcy. Good sound sense and hon
esty in the conduct Of the city's business
would dictate an entirely opposite policy.
The city hall may be old and unsightly,
but II will serve the purposes Of a healthy
straightforward and economical munich
pal admiuisl ration for many years to come
The great and essential need of the tax
payers in these hard times is reduction Of
debt and taxes, not an increase But we
can sec but one hope for this and this hope
lies in new charter, under which the
le9pie, and not the politicians, will have
the say as to how our city shall lie mar.
