A Communication
e. A. ZELDA

The following article was received
too late for last weeks issue.
Henry G. Campbell, of the Milwau-
kee Journal, addressed about forty
men at the NJ. e. church, Tuesday
evening on Modern Municipal Gov
srnment" He said: 1.-The Importance
of good municipal government may be
realized when we consider that fifty
per cent of the population of this coun-
try live in cities. The management of
the city touches as much more init
ma ely in health conditions, and the
like, than state or federal government.
In spite of this, only a dozen states
have laws giving their cities home rule
The voters in cities thus defined, lose
the training which self government
would give them. Wisconsin has re-
Gently passed u law providing for the
commission form of government but
this law provides for only one method
of municipal government. Home rule
would permit any method being adopt
ed
"The commission form OF govern
ment has been failure in almost no
city 1t has three excellent characters
Iteliminates the party label. II pro-
vides for election by majority vote,
and it eliminates the ward system. 1t
further centralizes responsibility and
power and it is accompanied by the in
iative, referendum and recall.
II doubt that the commission form
OF government is going to endure. The
cry is for greater efficiency. The com
missioners are laymen each placed at
the head of IA department requiring
technical experience. The PEOPLE can
not be depended on to elect experts.
II believe the executive and the leg
islative branches should be elected but
not the administrative. The idea of
election of all administrative officials
has been abandoned in 800 to 400 Amer
lean cities
My faith in future city government
rests in a modification of the old form
of city government; IN modified form
of the federal system. l would pro-
vide, in Milwaukee, for Il Council of
nine men, elected at large. They
would pass ordinances, levy taxes, and
| the like Then elect one man. the
mayor, and let him appoint the heads
of departments, experts, which appoint
ments would be confirmed by civil
service board, not, however, by examl-
nation. This plan includes the iniative
referendum and recall. Salaries should
be liberal
Another plan of city government is
the city manager idea. Dayton, Chic,
has adopted a combination of the COM
mission form of government and the
city manager form. 1t elects > com
mission or council, who choose city
manager. He in turn, appoints the
heads of departments. This is the Ger
man system
The speaker urged those present to
vote next fall for the constitutional
amendment, giving Wisconsin munich
palities the right to adopt their own
charters and to make their own laws.
