City Government Form
Held Too Expensive
Residents Say Municipality Can
Be Better Conducted Under
Town system

What is understood to be the begin
ming of movement to restore the town
form of government to tn. 49,. -.
Mcthuen was started yesterday when
Charles W. Mann, resident. filed q
petition with the Attorney Generals
Office for authority to use the Attorney
Generals name in proceedings to Gust
the Mayor and City Council. The story
is that Mr.. Mann and other residents
ore Of the opinion that the city form
Of government is too expensive and that
the municipality can be better con-
Quoted under the old town system.
Mr.. Mann bases his contention on
Article 2 Of the amendments to the
constitution of Massachusetts. That
article, in describing how the general
court may erect and constitute mu-
nicipal or city governments, contained
this clause:
Provided, that no such government
shall be erected or constituted in any
town not containing $4,000 inhabitants,
nor unless it be with the consent and
on tho application of majority of the
Inhabitants Of such town, present and
voting thereon, pursuant to vote At Z
meeting duly warned and holden foz
that purpose"
Mr.. Mann's contention is that no ap-
plication was made by majority Of
lectmen petitioned for legislation and
that at the following state election the
residents accepted it.
Attorney General Allen has turned
the matter over to Assistant Attorney
General Arthur E. Seaerave. It. 10 OK.
