'NOPROSPER|TYB BY LAW"
Garfield Says Statutes Should
Conform to Needs of Business.

James r. Garfield, former Secretary OF
the Department Of Commerce and Labor
and the first Progressive to address the
Republican Club Of this city since the
founding OF the Progressive party. told
the members at the luncheon yesterday
afternoon that business could not be reg
ulated by law. "It is our duty to make
law conform to the needs Of business" he
said. The Bureau Of Corporations was
formed with this in view" he continued.
Its aim Is to give information to Con-
gress which will illumine and facilitate
its action. Government regulation of cor
porations was once opposed by those who
thought 1t meant paternailsm and a con-
sequent loss OF initiative. but the spirit Of
the times has changed. and such objec-
tons are no longer heard.
THE real question before us is to regu-
late such supervision SO as to do business
the least possible harm and the public the
most possible good, ana here il is we'll to
remember that no laws Of lasting value
or effectiveness can be passed unless they
are backed by an Intelligent and active
public opinion. We can't legislate pros
perity: we can only. by law. facilitate it,
We must also get back to the idea Of
personal responsibility in business; we
must deal with corporate as We deal with
private malfeasance-in personal fash
ion. And We must deal with It through

CITY CLUB HEARS LEVY
ASsembIyman Describes Mu-
niClpal Home Rule Bill.
SPIRIT IS C0UNTRY.W
R. S. Binkerd Urges Broader
Charters for Cities and
Ballot Reform.

The spirit of municipal home rule per-
vaded the Saturday luncheon of the City
Club yesterday. The subject of Munich
pal Home Rule in Sight was discussed
by Robert S. Binkerd, secretary of the
club: Assemblyman Aaron J. Levy and
other speakers. State Senator Franklin
ID. Roosevelt was expected to speak, but
failed TO appear.
Assembyman Levy, the majority leader
Of the lower branch of the Legislature
prefaced his remarks with reference to
the "merciless' attacks of some Of the
New York papers-including The Tribune
upon his activities in the Legislature in
1911. He found consolation, he said in
their kindlier tone since then. He said
that he went into the Legislature with
fixed ideas some of which he had changed
In the light of his experiences.
The majority leader spoke in favor Of
the bill, which bears his name, providing
for the creation and amendment of city
charters by the municipalities which they
concern. The bill was drawn by Mr..
Binkerd and j. o. Hammitt. secretary or
the Citizens Union. Mr.. Levy declared that
he believed il to be the disposition Of the
present Legislature to give home rule TO
New York and other cities. Such bills
would relieve the Legislature of large
amount of trivial affairs of various cities
and give that body more time to consider
statewide affairs.
Mr.. Binkerd said the City Club was
back Of legislation which would provide
for broader home rule in municipal al
fairs Ballot reform and a ballot similar
to that used in Massachusetts are sought.
THE time has come when the whole
country is awakening 10 the importance
and necessity of municipal home rule.
said Mr.. Binkerd. The first thing TO do
IS 10 grant broadening powers TO al! cities
give them a constitutional right TO make
and amend their own charters, compatible
with the state constitution in its general
provisions"
Mr.. Bnkerd referred TO Senator Roose-
velt's bill which provides for six forms
81 optional government for all second ana
third class cities. This bill provides for
a referendum on the question whether
city shall continue with the present form
of government or adopt form OF com
mission government. or MODIFICATION OF
the two principal forms, AS provided oy
the other four forms under the bill. While
Tin. Roosevclt bill does not affect New
York. the city Club approves II as step
forward In the general plan for muncipai
home rule.
