CITY MANAGER FORM
IS MOST, DEMOCRATIC
OF ALL, SAYS HATT0N

City manager form Of government
is the most democratic of all plans"
declared Prof. A. r. Hatton. professor
of political science at Western Reserve
university. Cleveland, O., in an inter
view Monday afternoon. Prof. Hatton
is to address a mass meeting of local
citizens in the high school auditorium
Monday night, on Municipal Govern
ment'
When | use the word democratic,
said Prof, Hatton. II mean it in the
sense of popular government. 1t has
been the experience of American cities
that the city manager plan is the most
democratic because it is most suScept-
ible to popular choice.
Under the best type of the federal,
or mayor and council government, the
mayor hides behind the council and
the council hides behind the mayor.
There can be no lodging in the man
ager form.
I'm the second place, under the fed
eral plan of city government. if the
people elect a poor mayor, he is in
" four years. According to the act
ed in Indiana, citizens of this
may remove a manager. at any
! Time. The only restriction is that he
is allowed hearing before the COM
; missioners.
Must Be Executive.
Mayors rarely possess executive
ability" said Prof Hatton Even
those of the larger cities are often
lacking in this needed quality. A city
| manager is chosen because of his abil
| ity to manage and supervise city gov
eminent. neither is he an autocrat. as
some persons would have you believe
! He is under surveillance of the com
! missioners."
, Prof. Hatton staunchly supports the
! city manager plan of government in
preference to the federal or commits
sion forms. He declared that less pol
! itics can be welded under the mana
| ger plan than under any form. The
! power to control" said Prof Hatton
does not necessarily flow from the
| power to elect"
