The institute for public service has
taken the case Of Jackson. Mich.

tration of what good may be accom-
plished under the commission man

rightly conducted One year ago
Jackson turned over it's affairs to a
manager and a commission. A de-
ficit of 100000 carried for years. has
been done away with. The city's net

COO. Ten thousand dollars worth of
service in addition to that provided
for in the budget has been supplied,
and there IS cash balance of S1O,-

Yet the tax rate was not raised
Jackson has made a better record
than Dayton. The city's health was
greatly improved. Relief work was
consolidated so rs TO avoid duplica-
tons. one day a month for rest was
provided for firemen without weak
ening the service. New boulevard
lights were installed. Municipal EN-
ployes were taken out Of politics.
The city's income was increased
when s3S3,O00 of property. formerly
escaping taxation, was returned to
the rolls. Purchasing agents did all
the buying for the city departments
The city water system was improved
and an effort was made to prevent
waste. Sanitary inspection was made
efficient for the first time Plans
were prepared to rebuild the entire
Sc wer system.
The list of achievements is long.
and TO the dweller in the ordinary
politically controlled city it reads like
fiction. II seems that the manager
only attempted TO place the city s
finances on "A business basis. This
made necessary many changes and
improvements. In making purchases
advantage was always taken of the
cash discount. and in buying coal
the heat unit and ash basis was fol-
lowed instead of the named quality

Of money was saved The time may
come when larger municipalities will
become convinced that il is just as
economical for them as for smaller
places to conduct their business sci
entifically.

NO BOUQUETS FOR STREET
CARS.

Editor News-Times;
The affair Sunday night between
the street car men and the students
of NOtre Dame might be int occa-
sion for the mayor Of our city to
investigate the street car service she
city has had TO put up with for sew
eral years.
The mayor has made good in
bringing about a regulation of the
electric light company: now let his
administration go a bit farther and
correct the street car company.
l will leave it TO any citizen of the
east side, IL il is not the poorest
street car service imaginable: they
use the smallest and oldest cars for
transportation of passengers. There
is no heat in most cases and poorly
lighted. The cars are so crowded
that if one leaves down town near
the rush hours, chances are he will
have to stand up all the way home
ana be obliged To pay his fare twice,
if he rides The Notre Dame line
understand is the next best paying
line in the city, yet the poorest ser
vice.
on the Madison st. line where the
traffic is lightest they use the largest
car, and on Notre Dame line where
the traffic is the heaviest they use
in most cases an old rickety car the
smallest they have.
am Of the opinion that each
passenger is entitled TO a seat and
that the car must be heated and
that they must maintain service.
These things the street car company
fail in completely. ! think if the
street car company would comply
with this, put on cars to accommo-
date the NOtre Dame students and
give service for money paid in fares.
and courteous treatment; set good
examples; there would be no trou-
BILE. For the mayor 10 give favor

ready accomplished in his admin
stration.
