SIMPLE SYsTEMs.

The proposition to create board of mana cement
for the City Hospital does not tit the best principles
Of administration. Organizations Of this kind are
seldom other than impediments They have ten
dency to obsruct work, increase expenses and divide
responsibility. The average accessory board is slow
and unwieldy and unprogressive.
Under existing laws the Board of Health as or.
gained, has almost no authority, it is true. The
Health Commissioner is practically supreme in all
matters concerning his department, and the board
merely in advisory capacity. This principle
may not be completely satisfactory to everybody, but
it is nevertheless right that the Health Commission
conduct of the department, should have authority
commensurate with his responsibility
The direction Of municipal departments should not
be Entrusted to boards. This would be step back
ward. A man of more than ordinary ability and
character would not accept Office when aware that
his plans would be hampered by distinct accessory
board, TO which he would necessarily be subject OF
course, incompetent man would be in position to
do the city great injury; vet originally the voters are
supposed to elect officials who may be trusted to APP
point good chiefs of departments.
The simplest organizations and the simplest meth
DDS for managing departments are the best Compli-
Gated systems are Ineffective and generally obstruc
five. Authority should be vested in competent men
and the responsibility made direct and clear. Ger
tainy there should be means for furnishing and re-
moving an official found to be incompetent: there
should be restrictions upon authority. But no high
official should be put under control of board that
would probably be obstructive than useful
Suggestions for changes in systems are no doubt
made with the best Intentions and the origlnaors
this particular idea probably deserve commentator
for purity of motive However experience is the best
instructor and experience is against accessory boards
