SPEAKERS OPPOSE
COMMISSION PLAN
Seebirt and Gillian Talk Gov
eminent at University
Club Dinner.

Ell r. Seebirt and Arthur I.
Gillian discussed the city planning
commission form Of government at
the University club luncheon Tues
day noon. The discussion was in
formal. Both speakers were OPP
posed 20 the commission plans as a
substitute for the present form.
M. Seebirt observed in his re-
marks that in his Judgment the
commission form OF government
was no panacea for the Ills infesting
a city. Rather he said tho benefit
OF the commission form is 10 d.
vorce the city from partisan poll
tics. Mr.. Seebirt held that 20 Gre
ate the commission plan form would
do away with the present federal
system under which precedent. laws
and practice are a big factor. and
the necessity of continuous legal in
vestigation and legislation would
necessarily ensue in the other form.
The same and even better results
could be obtained from the federal
form OF government in the city II
politics were divorced, he said, and
without necessitating constant leg
islation on questions Of law that
would arise.
