The Mayor-Elect; His Job.

Those who expect a sudden Transformation Of
our city administration one week after Mr.. ROD
bins accession to office are necessarily doomed
to disappointment. The naive supposltlon that
all the trouble and inefficiency of the past has
been due simply to the carelessness or lncom-
potency of two or three officials is groundless
and eratuitous. The waste and poor manage
msnt has been due primarily to a system OF ad-
ministration fitted for nothing bigger or more
complex than a country store.
Mr.. Robbins will be compelled to begin with
the dilapidated machinery left by his predeces-
sor. And he will have to transform that ma
chinery at the same time he is running it. The
task is somewhat like that encountered by the
engineer who must tear down an old bridge and
build a new without stopping the trains.
On top of that Mr.. Robbins has less to do
with than the preceding administration Owing
to increases in salaries and to the resumption OF
light payments, the new executive will have an
added expenditure of some $4,000 or $4,000
and yet will have no greater income. He must
make the same suit out of that much less cloth.
And he must do much more. With less ma
terial he must even make a larger garment.
When one contemplates the task which the city
has set for it's new mayor nothing less than
"herculean'' comes to mind as the appropriate
adjective. And if anyone considers "herculean"
a bit overdrawn let him consider for a moment
what the new mayors commission is.
He must even establish a desk for himself
in city hall. The former mayor used his office
as a little "side line" as the travelling men w',uld
say, and didn't even bother to have an executive
office. To establish the mayoralty desk means
to re-organize the city's entire system of book
peepi1 g and record keeping so as to have reports
of departmental affairs going up to the mayor
at frequent and regular intervals. This is neces-
sary for any executive if he is to govern eff
GENTLY.
Purchasing methods, cost keeping records
and daily time records are a few of the depart
mental activities which must be wholly recast.
One department, the Health, must as soon as
possible, be overhauled from top to bottom. And
every other must be re-organized on efficiency
method lines. All told it looks as if Mr.. Robbins
will have no trouble earning his salary.

Old Age Utopia.

At a recent meeting of the Peoples Institute
of New York City, David J. Lewis, Representa-
tive from Maryland and a member of the joint
committee of the parcels post spoke most feeling
ly of that institution. With a fervOr that makes
George Stuart see mcold and unfeeling, with an
eloquence that throws some doubts on the sup
posed standing of Mr.. Cicero, this solon painted
a picture of the lovely times we will all have after
the parcels post has been in operation a few
years.
Just think, he told them, how, after a life of
toll in mine, shop, office, or store, after the fires
have been consumed on the affairs of profession
al activity, the worn out old veteran of sixty can,
because of the facilities of the post, retire into
the country and take up truck farming in his
final decades. In this way old age restitution
may be done away with and poor houses be sent
up Salt Creek forever!
As one ~contemplates this beautiful scene he
falls to wondering if some new Bergson has dis
covered that after all there sleeps in the depths
of human instinct the ability to do anything I'M
der heaven if circumstances but be propitious.
We suppose that after a man has been a mere
lawyer for forty years carrying about in the
background of his mind during the period a faint
recollection that c~abbages don't grow on trees he
AA@S HNNN>AA ON NNNe~
gardener, a trade which requires only ten or fiji
teen years for learning.
We are also somewhat embarrassed by the
consideration that there are some of us a bit shy
on capital. Land doesn't hang around on Christ
mas trees nor do horses wander seeking an own
er. How to get ones t~entacles on that farm
might be somewhat of a problem to many vet
Grams Of sixty.
And on top of this the sparkling scene where
in the necktie salesman stoops lovingly over the
onion bed using muscle that disappeared from
the earth many decades since is simply enchant-
ing. It is almost impossible for us to wait for
bald pates and sclerotic arteries in order to re-
tire to those bucolic retreats made possible by
the gracious parcels post. But until then we
shall beguile our weary years. by reflecting OF
the march Of time and the fact that, while Con
gressmen are always hard pressed with heav,
duties, still a few remain w1ze1fe able to sliy
away for a little seance wNh ttHs pipe Of dreams
