THE STATE MANAGER

The familiar city manager plan is now being adapted to state use. Kan Sas is about to turn over all it's state institutions to business man to run on ordinary business principles. The legislature provided for this innova- tion recently, and the plan is to go into effect July l.
 The state government is to take the form of a big corporation. The gover- nor and three other officials make up the board of directors which selects Ia general manager to handle the states affairs. There is no provision whatever for politics. And there is no limit to the managers salary. The Legislature wisely left the mater open, so that nothing should stand in the
 way of getting a man big enough for the job. It is likely that the incum- bent will be paid more than the gov ernor
 The size of the job, viewed as business opportunity, may be infer red from the fact that the institutions over which the manager will preside take up four-fifths of the states total expenditures. They represent an in- vestment of more than $30,000, ,000. Over $5,O0O,0OO a year is spent on new buildings, equipment, repairs, salaries, etc.
 The only comment that seems to be
 called for is, What an extremely sensible thing to dol" State govern ment in this country has Jagged be-
 hind federal and municipal govern ment in methods of administration and in the realization of opportuni- ties for further service. Recently
 there have been hopeful developments
 in many states tending to overcome
 this reproach. The Kansas expert
 ment will be watched with keen in-
 terest, and if it succeeds as it should | will be widely copied

PROCLAMATION By the Governor of Arizona
Executive Department, State of Ariz.

Whereas, In this time when the United States and the whole civilized world is torn by the most destructive struggle in history, the people of Ari- zona should feel drawn to thoughts of devotion to the memory of those who fought and died in their country's ser vice in other wars; and
 Whereas, Decoration Day, annually observed by many states. gives pause for the laying aside of temporal cares the placing of wreaths and blossoms on the graves of departed veterans and the rendering of a proper respect to the venerable men who survive the battlefields of past generation; and
 Whereas, an opportunity is by this day presented to our school children to consecrate themselves anew to the Union, which blesses them freely with the choicest gifts of most advanced civilization;
 Now, Therefore, l, Thomas E. Camp bell, Governor of Arizona, by virtue of the authority iIr me vested, do here by recommend that our entire citizen ship do, on May 30, 1917, the day set apart as Decoration Day and Memorial Day, give expression to their feelings of reverence by statewide and appro- priate observance of the same, to be made by military and fraternal orders, historical and civic organizations, that the brave deeds of those who gave their all for country. may be perpet- uated in their memories and handed down, undiminished, to posterity.
 And it is further recommended that the public and private institutions of education throughout Arizona join in reverentiaI celebration on that day, in such manner as may be deemed most fitting by those in authority over them.
 In Witness Whereof, have here unto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be af- fixed.
