Are MOI Specific

They mention those faults gen
orally, but never specifically. OF
course the law does have its weak
nesses, but why don't they cite them
specifically?
Under the old law Michigan City
had seven councilmen. The mayor
could get anything he wanted, good
or bad. Today we have five COM
lnissioners who can fire me any
minute my work becomes unsatisfac-
tory. I can't even spend $500 of the
'city's money without consent of the
commissioners. The commissioners,
elected by popular vote, employ a
manager, q director of finance, a city
judge, city clerk, and other city
officials, any one of whom can be dis
missed the instant his services be-
come unsatisfactory" Couden said.
Billings Praises Plan
w. H. Billings, director of the
city's finances, who accompanied
Couden, praised the system as the
one means Of Kidding a municipality
sof political chicanery.
Before I assumed dictatorship of
the city finances, I was a Democrat.
Today am a hired employed Of the
city, bound by its bylaws not to
engage in politics in any way
'Couden was a Republican then. To-
day we never mention politics." Bill
lings said.
Michigan City was the first city
in Indiana to adopt the city-man-
ager form of government. Under
the system the city has prospered
and today is nationally regarded as
a model for other cities throughout
the country seeking to become man
ager.controlled cities.

OF STATE COURTS
AN INVESTIGATION
Zimmerman Says the Legislature
Msy Begin with His Office;
Tells Of Growth of Motor
Vehicles.
BY Fred R. Zimmerman
Sec. of State

! am taking this method of send
ing a greeting to all the people Of
Wisconsin and to wish them happy
and prosperous New Year. May all
your hopes and dreams and all your
New Years resolutions be fulfilled.
After all isn't it good just to be
alive in this beautiful, turbulent
world; to glide with the stream when
gliding is good and to combat the
waves or struggle against the
current when that seems the proper
thing to do.
For the New Year ! nave resolved
to profit by the experience Of the
past and to do my work better This
should mean a good deal in the
performance of my official duties as
secretary of state, which are con-
stantly growing at q very rapid rate.
I have resolved that the legislature
should be encouraged to investigate
my department if have done
anything wrong. If | have failed
10 do anything that should be done,
or if I have been extrayagant and
expended money needlessly, ! want
to know it and you ought to know it.
have always favored greater
publicity in public affairs and can
see no reason for changing my
opinion now just because it affects
me personally.
Everybody is or should be in
terested in what is being done by
government officials. am sure
that if the people were fully inform
ed on the subject they would have
greater respect for the government
and we would have better govern
ment. A public official who is
afraid Of an investigation should be
investigated.
The most trying and arduous duty
imposed on the secretary Of state is
the registration Of motor vehicles.
It is q big task and constantly grow
ingbigger. Il has increased skiold
in ten years.

Paddock For
Volstead Violators
Government Announces Drastic
Measures in Attempt 20 Enforce
Federal Dry Law.

MISUNDERSTANDING paddock
ing of all saloon properties IL
Wisconsin where convictions for vic.
lating the Nolstead act are secured
is to be the principal weapon used
by the government in making pro.
hibition enforcement effective under
the new dual directorate, it was
learned Wednesday.
Letters are to be sent out shortly
to owners of all saloon property,
warning them that if their tenants
violate the federal dry laws the pad
lock provision Of the Volstead act
will at once be invoked,
At the same time, another indica-
ton taken to mean that the govern
ment is serious in It's drive to dry
up the Badger state, was seen today
in the announcement of prohibition
officials at Washington that a squad
Of outside agents will shortly be sent
into Wisconsin to augment the pre-
sent agents force.
Inauguration Of rigid paddock
policy Nv the government is expect
ed 70 have beneficial psychological
effect in reducing the number of dry
law violations. The letters, it was
said, viii be sent to property own
ers so that they cannot later come
into court with a plea of ignorance
Of the law.
In Milwaukee alone there are 1890
saloons and in the state at large be-
tween 5000 and 1000. In between
so and 90 per cent Of the places, the
saloon keepers are rentors. II sum
mary action is taken 10 paddock
places where the dry law is violat-
ed, it viii tend, il is believed, to re-
duce the number Of saloons as land
lords viii be reluctant to lease their
places for saloon purposes
The number Of additional agents
to be assigned to duty in Wisconsin
and the time Of their arrival, pro-
hibition officials would not reveal.
They made clear, however, that when
the campaign TO sponge up Wiscon-
sin begins there will be an adequate
force prepared TO strike hard and
often at moonshiners and bootleg
gers.
The federal grand jury today ap-
peared to be investigating the ac-
tivities Of beer runners working be-
tween southern Wisconsin breweries
and Chicago and Milwaukee.

Although there are many trappers
in Oneida and adjoining counties
this winter, fur dealers here claim
the amount Of furs being received
is much smaller than that Of pre-
vious seasons. There is a scarcity
Of mink and Of rnuskrsts and il is
predicted that unless trapping Of
these animals is prohibited for an
extended period they will become
practically extinct in this section Of
the state within a few years. Foxes
are reported plentiful but difficult
to trap. Fur prices are high with

Registrations increased from 49,
972 in 1915 to 53s,795 in 1924,
receipts from S419,775.25 to s6,-
739,389.G8, expenses from $27-l57.-
"a to s22O,613.32. Cost per license
in 1915, 302; in 1924, 400.
The cost Of administering the
law in 1924 was 80 mills or 3.2
cents for every dollar of receipts.
This is less than the cost Of collecting
taxes. It was less than al cents
for each license issued This in
cludes the cost Of the number plates,
postage, printing and stationery,
freight, express, drayage, office
supplies and the salaries Of en-
ployes, including five inspectors.
The reader may get better idea
of what is involved in the task Of
registering $4,000 vehicles from
the following details:
An average Of 1900 registrations
every day for 800 working days, 225
registrations every hour. But two
thirds Of all the vehicles are register
ed before May LIST and the actual
average during the first five months
of the year was 1895 per day or 489
per hour or every minute.
The office maintains two card
index systems, one numerical and one
alphabetical. These cards alone
weigh over 5000 pounds. II would
take one person working hard and
fast at least 60 days merely to
count them.
The number plates sent out weigh
over SOC, 900 pounds.
About half the applications that
are received are faulty or incomplete.
A very large number must be re-
turned for correction. Others are
amended here from information
found in former records. Fully one
third Of the clerk hire would be
saved If all applications were correct.
These errors cost the state about
$4,000 a year, but

Takes Army of Cleaners.

1t takes an army of "a persons
to keep our state capitol building
clean, this is not counting the
many special helpers required to
make repairs and repainting. This
may seem a large force; but when
one considers the immensity of
the structure and the hundreds of
rooms that must be kept spick and
span, it is not large, probably the
average amount Of space would be
much larger than the average
home which ore woman attempts
to keep clean. 1t is said that very
little Of the furniture and fixtures
ever get stolen or lost and in sew
eral years only one of the big thirty

appeared, and that one was stolen by
