MAYOR ON
MUNICIPAL REFORM
E. r. Taylor Discusses the Prob
lem of True Civicism and
Its Solution

:, Edward Robson Taylor, former
mayor of San Francisco, speaking at
the weekly luncheon of the Common
wealth club in the Palace hotel yester-
day, urged that the only way to obtain
clean municipal government was to
take the elections out of politics and
reform the individual voters. Charters
and other political instrumentality, he
said, would not stop corruption and had
no reform value unless the officials
We're educated to an appreciation of
true civicism. He said in part:
Under present conditions ma
tlonal and state, affairs are of more
ceoncern, to us than municipal mat
ters. The situation should be re-
Versed as municipal affairs touch
us closest. Though San Francisco
is but a small part of the United
States it Is our home. and our duty
is to see that that home is kept as
cleanly and decently as possible.
Many have said that republican
government. as far as municipal
tiles are concerned. is failure.
This is nonsense. The fault is not
in the instrumentality but in our
selves. The greatest laws and
fbaT11 fhartgrs ,eeet ever s6I drawn up even
and Shaw said that our charter was
the best in the country-can only
improve environments, but can not s
make men good. Your corruptionist
will find a way to practice corrup-
ton regardless of your laws.
Is there today in San Francisco
that vital sense of civic virtue that
ought to be there. that civicism
that should burn like flame in all
of us? I fancy there is no one here
Since my fight 25 years ago to
reform this city, when I got only
1900 votes, I have never tried to
reform this city or posed as a re-
former-never. ! have since said
that every man should reform him,
more influence. When this is ac-
complished your good government
will follow.
The personal equation must al
ways be considered. Make your
laws to fit your men, believe
socialism is a grand idea, but 1 do
not think the world is ready to
has not been considered
l favor the acquisition of public
utilities by the city and say that
the monetary consideration should
not be considered. What if we do
lose money! Let us have pride in
the fact that we own and operate
properly these utilities.
Politics have no place in munich
pal affairs, and until you root out
city run right Our institutions
should be operated for the interests
of the city and not parties. Elect
your officials by majority vote and
do away with the conditions that
permit the plurality TO win.
