Much Depends Upon Man.

After all is said, the success or fall
ure of municipal management depends
as much upon the man as the system
II is impossible to conceive of a sys-
fem whereby the best man is auto
nlatically selected-the best man TO
some lis not the best man to others
Notwithstanding the great success
Cumberland has attained under COM
mission government and the munich
pal housecleaning it started, the citi-
zens have found that five Commission
ers can squabble among themselves
and delay the consummation OF busi-
ness Just as energetically as a large
group OF Councilmen-they have found
that some men cannot forget their
partsanship and that Others shift re-
sponsibility, even where responsibility
is clearly shown-but II has taught
them that a large body of men acting
as executives are not SO successful as
a small number. This has not only
been proved in Cumberland but in
large cities like Buffalo and New Or
leans. which have commission govern
naent.
II this be true il follows that the
ideal government would be that OF
single head, the plan which makes one
man the manager of a city. Imagine
what a Herbert Hoover could do if he
were made manager of city like Bal
tirnore, what reforms he would in
uagurate, what economies he would
initiate, what success would follow his
efforts. The question follows: Where
viii you find the mar. equal TO the job?
There are thousands of Herbert Hoo
yers in the United States. If we
really want them We can find them.
In a way, one form of government is
no better than another, except as the
people make it so. We find in the
best governed cities the good people
active and the vicious notably quiet.
In the worst governed cities the good
citizens are grievously passive in their
goodness and the vicious extremely
active.
Yet the proportion of good citizens
Is about the same. The people are re-

msnts. II each individual wsrs to give
hta attention to the public business ~
hts own. which Il u after all. and were
to remember that hs In stockholder
In the municipal corporation In which
no lives. and worv to givo ~ much nt-
tention to that corporation IN no docs

In. q revolution would soon be brought
about In municipal governments.
Evry citizen should be politi-
clan in the sense that he expresses an
opinion In proper way on all public
questions; but no man should be a
politician in the sense that he trades
his political influence for living.
That is the trouble with cities in gem
eral. and that is why Cumberland has
succeeded so well in eliminating
politics. In Germany a Mayor need
not be resident of the city he governs
lin fact, il Mayor governs city
and he is found extremely capable and
successful. other cities try 10 secure
his services. The English citizen
goes TO the polls and records his
choice for member of the Common
Council. The Council elects the May
or. the alderman and everybody else
in the municipality-the voter fills
only one office.
Ours is a representative form OF
government. ii must represent either
the best there is or II is likely to rep
resent the worst there is. Corrupt
officials represent the people, just as
honest officials do More honest men
are not needed especially, for there
are plenty of them: in. fact. a large
majority are honest when they have
no selfish reason TO be otherwise.
The future welfare OF the city de-
pends on the aggressiveness of good
people, the elimination of corrupt
politics and a genuine interest mani1
tested by all its citizens. Then We
shall have what all cities want-good
government.
