FORM OF GOVERNMENT

In Saturdays paper we have a
call from our mayor for an election
to decide if We shall have a commits
sion form Of government. As the
commission form OF government has
been explained to us, we believe 1t
will be a good thing, provided the
right man has the position of com
missioner. Perhaps we are not
qualified to judge, but it rather
strikes US, from the resolutions
drawn up following this call for
election that we already have com
mission form Of government, as we
see little If any difference in that
and what we now have. Will not
some one kindly give devoid, as
much as possible of legal terms) an
explanation of the commission form,
that some of us more ignorant may
know just what it is, even though
W. cannot vote. MRS. M.
