COMMISSION GOVT.
CALLED A SUCCESS
Dayton, o., City Manager So Declared
To-day in Addressing National Mu-
nicipal League-Success Depends
on Intelligent Citizenship.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 20.-'The Com
mission Manager Plan of Government in
the Light OF Experience" was discussed
by Henry NJ Waite, city manager OF
Dayton o., at to-day's session of the
National Municipal league. He declared
this new form of city government was
a success, and in answer to his own
question as to whether it could be a
permanent success, he said;
"Its permanency depends upon intel
ligent citizenship, and their continued
! determination to keep partisan politics
out of municipal affairs"
The Dayton plan OF five commission
erR at large and non bipartisan, had re-
suited in the election of sound business
men, he said. They selected the man
ager, and the latter selected the direc-
tors of the five departments, law, finance,
welfare, service. safety.
81 cannot tell you the political faith
of the commissioners or the directors"
he said. "They are selected for their
ability.
"In our finance department" he con-
timed, "our new accounting system is
the same as would be found in any large
business. Our budget is scientific
Every month the head OF each depart
ment receives a complete financial state
ment which shows the original allow
anee, expenditures and balance in each
account. We keep our expenditures in
side our allowances.
"In August, we found that our esti-
mated revenues were too high. With
our system of accounting and budget.
we were enabled. in two days, to reduce
expenditures $4,000, and reorganize all
work accordingly"
He told how policewomen were aiding |
in the handling of women derelicts and |
domestic troubles; how the fire depart
ment was continually making house to |
house inspections TO reduce the fire haz- |
ard how duplication of effort had been /
saved by combing all philanthropic and |
city nursing into the welfare depart /
ment; how citizens had "turned 400 dirty |
spots into 400 gardens; and numerous
other steps in city improvements.
"These new forms of municipal gov

Big Snowstorm Descended with Covering
of Nine Inches.

The oldest inhabitant, the same who fig
ures in every first storm and bumper po-
tato crop story, awoke at dawn to see a
spectacle that he has witnessed but few
times in the last half-eentury. Usually
nine-inch covering of snow is reserved
for the bowling days OF February or for
use on tinselled postcards at Christmas

No one seemed to recall storm of such

good many years.
The first sleigh runners carved their
imprint on the untracked snow this
morning and everywhere there seemed
TO be a hustle OF preparation for win

SEN. LODGE SCORED
WILSON POLICY
Compares Turkish Firing on American
Cruisers Launch Like the Tampico
Incident in Mexican Trouble.

Boston, Nov. 20.-Criticism of the ad-
ministration's attitude in connection with
the recent firing upon boat from the
cruiser Tennessee in Turkish waters and
the Tampico incident in the Mexican
troubles, was made last night by L. S.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge. Speaking
before the Middlesex club, a Republican
organizat tion, the senator said;
"The administration is content to have
it appear that the Tennessee was fired
upon to give warning OF mines, but you
all know what happened at Tampco
Then within three days American sailors
were in Mexican waters and shedding
their blood. And now the incident of
the salute seems TO have been forgotten.
And the flag was never saluted."
"We do not know what happened in
Turkish waters" he added, "but appar-
emily the administration is content to
have it appear that the Tennesee's boat
was fred upon in warning of mines.
The administration has intimated that
it was a friendly act.
"The party in power should remem-
Der that these are par.ious times. 1t
should inquire into The state Of our de-
fense. The president says this is an
academic question. This is a fighting
worlda fighting age. Let US find out
the condition OF our army and our navy
and the state of our preparedness. Let
those findings be made known to the
people and then let the people say
whether the money shall be diverted
from building southern postoffiees to our
defenses."
Senator Lodge characterized the ad.
policies as evidence prov
ng beyond a doubt the incapacity of the
party to govern.
Il want to wipe out the memory of |
,hese last two years" he continued, 'snd |
take the power of government out OF |
he hands of the men who have brought |
iothing but suffering and depression at |
iome and ridicule abroad"
Referring again to the Mexican situa-
ion, the senator saidi
"All our efforts should have been de-
,oted to bringing about pacification in
dexico instead of getting Huerta out of
Dt1ice.
"As it is now, Mexico is in the throes
# revolution, and the two pets of this
Carranza and villa, are
t each Others throats."
Senator Lodge assured his audience
hat Samuel W. Mccall, defeated Re-
ublican guberna torial candidate at the
ccent election. would be the party's
hoice again next year, and that his elee.
ion was a certainty.

slowly The enemy seemed not to have
expected to meet us. The Germans fired
salvos of their heavy guns directing
them exclusively at the flagship. The en-
counter continued for IA minutes after
which the Goeben withdrew and disap-
peared in the fog, taking advantage OF
her speed.
"The Breslau took no part in the fight,
