and has been consistently a conGer-
IatiVe.'
King Liberalism
Now, | can understand this tate
msnt, aS coming from newspaper
man whose recollection doesn't ante
date the New Deal era. Hes mis-
informed, however, as to the pre-
New Deal period. Any old-tmer
knows that Senator King hasn't been
known as consistently conserVa-
tive. Much to the contrary.
For Il long lime, until rather re-
Gently, Senator King was Utah CO.
solon with Senator Reed Smoot
Smoot was a Republican and there
wasn't any dispute that he was con-
sentative.
In these days it was one of the
puzzles CT Washington how the same
state, simultaneously, could have on
Capitol Ei!l q; hard-Juil@d an Old
gu 'dSman as Reed SmUut and az
enlightened d liberia! = William Il.
King-ani II different parties, too
If one could be elected. how GDuiu
the other one bc--by the same
states bunch Of voter?
Which Wa Which?
l was nearly Curious enough e
60 out 10 Utah to investigate, but
doubt that even the MOrmDnS
l did consult Senator Smoot. oh,
could have told me. II was Just
"one Of tho:e neutrality-suspicious..
he said, Kings Il rampant radical"
That wasn't very explanatory.
l quizzed Senator King also. 1T
does seem queer, he confessed. Il
believe there must he something per-
sonal and non-political about it. l
own that it's inconsistent"
The fact remains that King, then,
never Tor a minute questioned that
he was a liberal. And Smoot would
have had a fit if anybody had init
Undated that King was as conserva-
tive as good judgment required.
The Scene Was Changed
Not only has the scene changed
The rapidity with which it's done it
in the last 10 years is confusing.
It seems only yesterday since l,
as a capital correspondent, called on
Senator George or Senator Bailey
when | wanted a liberal interview.
I even had to go as far as Senator
Nye or Shipstead or Frazier to get
anything liberal-not to mention
radicalsm.
Now conservatives are pretty lib
eral. Even Republican oldguards-
men are.

Manager Keeps to Business
A city manager leaves to the
mayor the welcoming of distin.
guished visitors, the opening OF
! conventions, the laying Of corner.
stones, and the making of after
dinner speeches.
A city manager is watchful to
prevent encroachment by the coun-
Gil on his authority over depart
mental personnel or of any inter-
ference with his right to discipline
or discharge employees.
A city managers most difficult
task is to keep his organization
lines up So that employees will
always observe proper channels in
reporting and seeking instructions.
While most manager charters per-
NIT the council members to deal
directly with department heads in
seeking information in order to
m a i n t a n proper organization
morale a manager requires that
this direct dealing be avoided
whenever possible. Committees of
councils should secure informa-

officials.

A city manager by the orderli-

easy for the council, and therefore
for the citizens, to understand the
city government and it's operations.
He makes no mystery of what he
does. A universal feature of mana
ger cities is a yearly report which
explains, usually by bar d
pie" diagrams, and in Gear SIM
pie English, the activities a n d
spending in each department.
A city manager provides til e
council with facts for determining
the policy and encourages the
council to decide the policy posi-
lively instead of passively accept
ing his recommendations. A city
manager sees the press represent
atives frequently and informs them
fully, but he resists being inces-
