ACHI PROPOSES
SHORT BALLOT
CHARTER DRAFT
Delegate to Coming Convention
Submits Ideas for Radical
Revision
WOULD ELECT MAYOR
AND FOUR SUPERVISORS
Auditor Would Also Be Elective
Other Officials and Em-
ployes Appointive

A complete draft of new city char
ter, prepared by w. c.. Achi, will be
ready for consideration when the char
ter revision convention meets next
month.
Achi's plan, on which. as published
several weeks ago, John HI. Wise has
also been working and with which he
agrees in principle, calls for the
''short-ballot" system. The mayer,
four supervisors and the auditor are
the only elected officers. Each mem.
Der of the board Of supervisors heads
a specific department. The mayor
heads the department of public affairs,
and the other departments are: Ac-
counts and finances, law and order,
public works, health and schools.
The mayor is to receive $500
year. the supervisors and auditor
$4,000 each.
Achi's draft is in the form of an
amendment to the territorial act
which is the present city and county
charter. 1t is well understood that the
coming convention cannot finally Gre
ate q new charter but must refer the
results of its work to the 1917 legislas
ture. Achi's charter draft is as fol-
lows:
