came so aroused that something be
undertaken to avert further blood
Ghed.
CITY MANAGERS.

Up-to-date communities are becom-
ing more and more interested in the
city manager and commission form of
government. In this city the plan
has been preached several times,
never meeting with any great en-
sons which are perfectly obvious. No
definite action has been taken, al
though we venture to say that a large
number of individuals are of the be-
lief that a business form of govern
ment here would be better than the
existing system. 1t is probable that no
action will be taken, although New
London has seen fit to look with ia
vor upon the plan, for several years
to come.
In Dayton, which has had the city
manager and commission form of gov
eminent for some time, petition,
signed by 5000 people has been placed
in circulation. It asks that there be
referendum vote upon the advisa-
bility of disseminating the system and
going back to the common plan of
electing a Mayor and an assistant
body of local lawmakers. The out
come of the election will be watched
with I great deal of interest. It is
| a fact that there are no communi-
ties which have adopted the city man
ager that have gone back to the other
! style. In Dayton the trouble arose
over an increase in the local gas rate.
The people were dissatisfied with the
price charged and asked that the
| manager be recalled by referendum
| In Connecticut cities a petition to the
Public Utilities commission would be
the only resource of the public in a
like cause for complaint. but we take
it that the Detroit manager had pow
or in adjusting rates either because
the plant was public owned or the
laws of Ohio so read.
Arbitrary action, with an increased
expense to the public, is never popu-
lar Possibly the manager of Dayton
was justified in allowing increase
to the company which operated the
plant Or making higher charge il
Dayton operated it. Possibly the city
] manager has saved enough in bust
nesslike administration of city affair.
| to more than compensate for the
| Ia, 81 %.
Of the householder. Undoubtedly the
| question will be thoroughly tough
out before time for completion of thu
referendum, and in the fight much de
tail of interest to others should de
velcp.
After all human beings are onl.
| human beings and city managers ar
human. A poor choice of the leadin;
executive, of the city administrato
would do great deal to make tn
commission form of government I'm
popular elsewhere as well as in tn
city where the man was chosen.
is certain that the greatest pains mus
be exercised when the manager
picked in order that no party ia
vorite or incapable individual get
the reins of city affairs in his hand!
But the city manager form is the logi
cal method of government notwith
standing. that it seems to deprive tn
people of the opportunity to vot
, oftener. We believe that Dayton wi
keep up it's present system of govern
ment despite the petition. If it dot
1 not we shall refuse to accept the re
visa bility of city managers.
