effort being camoufiaged with an
economic barrage.
From an economic standpoint
commission form OF government.
wherever In operation has proved
more expensive than the council
manic form. though, perhaps. more
efficient because OF departmental
assignments. In the managerial
form the city manager must divide
his attention between the different
departments into which the affairs
Of municipalities naturally divide
themselves. In other words the
city mnager must be a specialist in
all lines; an accomplishment gener-
ally considered beyond the capacity
OF any single individual. and direct
ly opposed TO the modern doctrine
OF specialization as understood in
the medical and commercial world.
Again, managerial form OF gov
ernment really does violence to the
principle OF government so strongly
eontended for in late years. that
United States senators. and even
the president OF the United States,
should be nominated by direct vote
OF the people. Are we, then, to
conclude that the people OF a NUM-
cipality are less capable than the
people OF a state, a senatorial dis
trict; less capable than the people
OF the United States as a whole
when II comes TO a selection Of an

tions for appointment as city man

II took up the letters OF applicants.
The applicants were for the most

ranged from $500 to $4,000. No

It's assurance that applications

That the present cost OF munici-

In widely scattered communities

Cities have gone from one form
to the other and back again in

mounting burden OF government.
Quoting from an analysis OF ex-
penditures published in the munich
pal Journal:
In l4s OF the 2l3 American
cities OF more than 10000 popula-
tion. the excess OF governmental
costs. including interest and outlays
for permanent improvements, over
