 MT. Harris was connected with the municipal research bureau in Philadelphia and believes that such an organization in Water bury could be of inestimable value to mayor or a city manager and would keep the citizens informed in regard to all departments of the city government.
 "In dealing with the Council Manager Plan, MT. Harris will dis cuss the size of the council, the type of man needed as manager, and the manner in which the per- sonnel of the city should be se- lected. MT. Harris will answer such questions as these: What would the city manager be able to do with Waterbury's debts? Would he be able to reduce the tax rate? What would be his re- lationship to the school system? Would the present boards, such as the board of finance, board of public works, welfare board and school committee continue under the present council manager form of government? Would city manager reduce the number of city employeS?"

Responsive Government.

among the virtues, theoretical and
actual, of the democratic form of gov
ernment is the element Of responsive
ness on the part Of public oficials to
the opinions and the wishes of their
people.
Frequently, when the people concerned
are minority groups or elections do not
loom in the near future, this respon-
siveness is sluggish. At other times, and
not always from selfish motives, 1t is
prompt and effective.
manifestation of this latter respon-
siveness has occurred during the past
few days in the action OF the Senate
