men, property owners aSsocia-
tiOnS. the chamber of commerce,
, the newspapers, were nOisily di-
vided on the plan. The council
wanted to hear wnat the quiet
voters thought.
Mrs. Benson herself approved
of the ice rink. So did most of
her neighbOrS. The night before
in her living room a score of
them had discussed the problem
for two hours. She told the coun
Gil all about it. The other nine
members of this associate coun-
Gil spoke for nine other neighbor-
hoods. The majority approved OF
the plan. and the council voted
for it.
If we can find out just what
our citizens think, instead of
what their politicians want. well
be getting somewhere in democ-
racy, Mayor Gaines explains.
For our citizens panels we pick
voters from the city's ten natural
social and economic regions. We
divide evenly between men and
women: rich. middle class and
poor; home owners and renters;
liberals and conservatives: pro-
fesSionS, business and labor. We
purposely avoid those who have
some selfish axe TO grind. We
really are getting a cross section
of what average people think.
The mavOr is now making up a
list whose members will include
the leaders of all local Organiza-
tiOnS = luncheon clubs. labor
unions. churches, parent-teacher
groups. lodges, professional so
cieties.
Mrs. Benson received her in
vitation to the council meeting
two weeks in advance. Accom-
panying it was a copy OF the city
charter. and the suggestion that
she familiarize herself with it.
She did 50 conScientiouSly, and
showed it to her neighbOrs, most
of whom hadn't paid much atten-
tiOn to Berkeley'S charter before.
But they know all about it now.
To catch future citizens young.
the city fathers have organized
the grade schools into small mu-
inequalities. In each SchOolroOm
is an elected governing council

sit among the other spectators
and listen to Mrs. Benson and
her nine associates.
For more than a decade, ex-
pertS have rated Berkeley among

This, and the fact that no un-
