money. THE system u healthier now
than ever" explained Mayor Wilson.
Three Success Factors.
1.-THE secret Of success for the city
manager plan as worked out in Cincin-
natl lies In three things:
First. The city council Is small
with nine members-and this council
Is elected from the city at large and
not by wards. The result has been
the choice of men of standing, well
known to the entire city and responsible
to all voters under proportional repre-
sentation.
Second. There has been q political
organization, thoroughly efIicient, which
has as its object the maintenance Of
the principles Of this type of municipal
government. While not primarily poll
ticians. the leaders Of this charter group
or party have beaten the old machine
and have won three elections. with
six out Of nine council members.
Third. There are council elections
each two years. These elections are
frequent enough TO insure continued
interest Of the men responsible for
maintaining the organization"

organization of the system.
This machine is thoroughly broken.
