Centralizing Control
Power for the Commissioners

The proposal of the District Commissioners for law to
their board complete and authority
over the local seems to weighted with
sense
The general proposal to the Commissioners the real
governing body of the cywhich they are already IN name
and which many think they are in facts SOUND
Ordinarily we wouldn't favor officials reaching
out for greater power. WE HAVE SEEN SOME SORRY
INSTANCES OF THE RESULTS OF THAT SORT OF THING
This however isn't the ordinary power grab OF authority
hungry officials
looks like and we are ready believe that is genuine
desire to give the people BETTER KIND OF GOVERN
MENT than they have been receiving.
There going to be strong opposition Of the pro-
visions of the bill. ,
This opposition going to center around the provision that
would give the Commissioners what they call "a reserve

exercise independent administrative control over large
part of the local government

of the boards don't show so well on study OF
their records Some their members have to believe that
they vested interest in the agencies they have been ap
pointed to administer.
Some of them assume 'holier than thou attitude which
destroys their usefulness ,
It is probably with the idea Of curbng Of these od
fgies that the Commissioners are seeking power over tne
boards.
Some of the worst odahoned office lovers the
boards have served long that THEY HAVE FoKGOIIEN

The Commissioners propose to meet this situation by giving

serious fighting.

original design which their in
ventors hope will fly and set a
new pace in the air industry.
They are the dreams of their
inventors reproduced in models

they fly, but often they don't. But
it is this kind of work that mas
pushed aviation to the fore and
