POLITICAL BOSS
is DOOMED BY
MANAGER PLAN
Advantages of New Form Of
Government Explained
to R0tarianS.

Establishment Of a direct Inc Of
responsibility and authority is one
OF the inherent fundamental ad-
vantages under the city manager
form of government, Claude H. An
der. City Manager League cam
paign chairman told Rotsrians
Tuesday at the Claypool.
Anderson pointed out how the
city manager plan offers opportun-
fly to eliminate the political boss
which represents the rulc Of the
minority"
IT will be impossible for an or
~anized minority to run city gov
crnment i'm indianapolis after next
November If the citizens are united
in their support Of the City Man
ager Leagues program.
Eliminate Patronage
Politician patronage VIII be elm
mated under the non-partisan plan
II the political boss Is robbed OF his
0ouor. The manager plan estan-
fishes business principles in city al
rsirs We stlll believe that the city
manager law is absolutely constilu-
tonal and will proceed on that basis.
The city manager league mas
pledged itself to see that there oe
no secret alliances. no understand
ings or trades Everything is and
VII be conducted in the open. That
is the only way to have honest gov
crnment We welcome the spot
light of publicity on everything We
no. No public official has the rignt
10 expect anything but the closest
scrutiny of the press and the cltl-
zenship, Anderson said.
Honest Men in Open
Honest men 90 their deeds in
The open. Every outstanding
authority on municipal government
grants uhat the city manager form
is the best system yet devised. II
can and will help the indianapolis
situation. We hope to make this
city the best governed city in
America.
The city manager plan proposed
10 unite all citizens under one ban
ner for a common purpose, casting
aside all differences of the past.
There is no dividing line. The city

AGENT GAS
TAX SOUGHT
Administration Forces Also
Would Lower License
Fees One-Third
BY BROOKS

\ AUSTIN, April 23.-Gov. Dan
!, Gcody's administration leaders will
PEEK for a four-cent state gasoline
,seass tax, and will offer a one-third
hikction in the license fees of pas-
caEnsrAcarS, 1t was revealed early in
the Tfrt session.
Thy will undertake in this way
to raise more money for highway
construction than is now provided,
and to cut down the heavy share Of
license fees which go to counties
having large cities. Four counties
now are said to get about one-fifth
OF all the county license fees.
Rep. r. M. Hubbard, who led the
unsuccessful fight for the state bond
Issue, will sponsor the administra-
ton program in the house, it was
learned.
His measure Is expected to give
counties the first Is per cent of the
lowered license fees, and small per-
centages on the graded license fees
above this amount, so as to make
the counties share more equally.
According to Rep. Leonard TIL
lotson Of Sealy, a four-cent gasoline
tax beginning May 1, would bring
the state about $18,0 ZOO, 900 for high
ways this year. Other highway rev.
enues would bring the amount to
around 100000 a year now, and
the continued four-cent rate, after
the license fees have been reduced,
would annually increase the highway
revenue until above $40. 1000 900 a
year would be provided. This would
include money paid in by counties
on state roads. and federal air, and
the highway departments share of
the motor license fees. Tillotson
has a bill which differs materially
from the administration plan in di-
viding revenues, he said.
