Several people at the station here
on New eYar's day came near witness
ing a tragedy. The evening passenger
train toward Pittsburgh had just left
the station and was gathering momen-
tum when q freight swung around the
curve head-on. Quick work ON the
part Of both engineers enabled the
passenger train to back up to the juno
ton and pass. Had the passenger
train been one minute earlier or the
freight one minute later they would
have met on the sharp curve below
Hoult and the result may be guessed.

MANAGER RESPONSIBLE,
Continued from Page One)

and the suggestion Of a system of
government which promises to elinli-
nate that fattor and substitutes met
r2ds of business, readily coulmends
itself to public favor.
Sc; g1s:at is the dignity OF bust
nezs in America, and SO universal the
respect for the efficiency of the forms
Of organization that have built up
! big business in America, that the plan
will have a strong appeal to those
who are looking for substantial re-
Turns in community ibettermelt.
, Study the chart CT the American
business Plan, ard compare it with
the Council Manager Plan. If you
hay'nt copy OF the chart ans mem-
Der of the Citizens Committee will
see that you get one.
Note the similarity of the plans:
Stockholders are the taxpayers.
Board of Directors is the Council.
General Manager is the City Manager.
Departments under the City-Man-
ager are organized and directed
identl. ally like they are under the
General Manager Of private Co..
roration.
The Council Manager Plan being
founded on business principles, could
exist by following business meth
eds; it could rot opera.l if politics
were considered. Progressive cities all
ever the country are adopting this
system and deriving great benefits. l.
IS at least worthy Of the deep con-
sideration and proper analysis.
This plan promises simplicity and
business methods and contains many
benefits fer these who pay the CT
panses Of operation of the City Gov
eroment. Even the most violent 1p-
ponerts of this plan, admit that the
city's financial affairs are in bad
shape, and the present system has
failed.
If Alexandria adopts this new plan,
:. Will be because the citizens and tax
oayers realize that the old system has
failed, and that they believe that
system founded on ordinary, simple,
everyday business principles Will save
money and give them fair returns for
their investment in taxes.
The Citizens Committee has sub
n,:tted this plan as business plan,
and is confident that in visw Of the
plan being so simple, the voters and
taxpayers will have no trouble anaiyz-
ing the proposition, and expressing
ahs;r decision at the polls, when the
ciccticn is called.
If their are any details a50ut this
ran that you don't understand, ser3
ycur questions to the Citizens Com
mittee, who will be glad to furnish
airy Information they have OF the
subject.
