WHY NOT A FOUR-YEAR TERM

WHY NOT A FOUR-YEAR TERM
H TENURE OF our Councilmen should be extended
to four years instead of two years as it is at present. The term
of a legislator begins on January first Of the year following
his election, and ends on December 81, two years later. This
period is entirely too short, and has a number Of decided dis
advantages which could be corrected with the extension of
the time.
NO DOUBT the mere thought of such a suggestion will
bring forth cries to high heaven from stagnant, dyed-in-the-
wool reactionaries who view any forward movement with hor-
ror. But a second thought should show that there is consid-
cradle merit in the suggestion. 1t is not forgotten that such a
change cannot be made law overnight, and that an amend
ment to the Organic Act will be necessary, but once the
populace is convinced that the extension Of the time is for the
best interests of all, the change on the books will be a matter
of routine.
H TWO-YEAR period for legislators is too short to
provide any real opportunity for acquaintance with the func-
tioning O. the legislative process. It is one thing to go along
with what is being done, but another to actually know what
is to be done, when, why and how. 1t should be %abundantly
clear to all that two years is too short. In the case of the new
conner, he sits through his first few sessions actually listening,
overcoming timidity, and becoming acquainted with the at
mosphere. Some may say that this is no problem, but it is re-
cognized that campaigning in public is very different from
actually being thrown in a position of responsibility. 1t is US
uaIy six months before any real sense Of assurance or acquain
lance with the functioning begins to show itself. But before
long the legislator has to start thinking Of his political cam
paign, and the last few months really represents nothing but
a virtual lame duck situation.
THE COUNCILMAN who knows that his stay in that
body may not be more that a mere two years will undoubted-
ly take one of two attitudes. He will strive very hard to please
everybody, and in SO doing lose his own cause, or he will be
indifferent, knowing that regardless Of what he does he might
still lose his seat. If he strives to make good, then his think
ing might be SO colored that any resort to real strength to see
a problem through to its logical conclusion is lost in the effort
to gloss over things and win one or two talking points for his
, 1951-01-10

next campaign. There can be
no doubt that this takes place
all the time, and as a result the
public suffers.
WITH a two-year tenure:
there can never be a truly eff
fective functioning body. Men
must work together; they must
know each other and be
ready to fit as a Legislative
body. But no sooner than they
! begin to make a sensible pat.
tern than the whole thing i,
broken up, and before long g
new group starts OFT. At this
point, those who have been re-
turned to the legislature must
literally be slowed down as
their newly elected brothers
try out thei rsea legs, or wings,
or what have you,
IT should be noted that the
thought here advanced is that
the term be extended to four
years. However, elections
should continue to be held
every two years. In other
words, we should elect our
Councilmen much as the Con
gresS of the United States
elects its members to both
houses. An example would be,
that a certain number of Coun
cilmen be elected in 1852,
whose terms would run for
four years, then in 1854,
another group elected. In this
way, the group elected in
1852 would have their term
ended in 1856, and those elect
ed in 1854 have their term end
in 1853.
WE believe that the extern
sion of the term of Office here
suggested would be for the
best interests Of these Islands,
and that serious thought be
given to it.

The Time Has Come To Practice Traffic Courtesy
BY William J. Meyer

TT WAS midafternoon and
three lanes of traffic were
moving swiftly downtown on
a main street In the North
east section. The day was
clear and crisp-a perfect
day for accidents because
records show that most acci-
dents occur when driving
conditions are good.
At a busy intersection, a
driver in the middle lane
made a sharp, right-angle
turn across the path Of
an oncoming truck. The
driver turned without a signal
or warning of any kind. The
truck driver in the right lane
jammed on his brakes, came
to a sudden stop. It was a
near miss. A few feet more
and he would have plowed
into the car.
The driver from the middle
lane rolled on down the side
street, apparently unaware
the alert truck driver had
saved her from adding an
other traffic accident to the
Districts constantly increas-
ing toll-one in which she
would have been entirely at
fault.
There" said George c.
Keneipp, director of the De-
partment of Vehicles and
Traffic, as he viewed the
photograph of the incident,
"is a prime example of why
the police cannot hope to
cope with our growing traffic
problem.

Maxim Banks HeaviI'
On Change in Style
AGAINST Charles
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

CHICAGO, May %. - joey
Maxim. ingrained with a new
crouching, weaving style after 225
rounds Of preparatory punching,
has his first serious .fighting in
Ia months Wednesday when he
tries to dethrone Heavyweight
champion Ezzard Charles in
lChicago Stadium.
When Maxim met Charles twice
lin 1912 and in a hereunder In 1949
he boxed erect. as II ready to salute
a colonel, and Ez outpointed him
each time.
With the heavyweight crown at
stake in their fourth meeting, the
28-year-old Maxim and his man
ager. Doc Kearns. logically think
it's time to be different.
"I've got joey weaving and bob
bing," says Kearns who taught
Jack Dempsey along somewhat the
same lines. Charles is more effec-
tive against the erect boxers.
Maxim punches better from the
lsemi-crouch."
Kearns figures his fighter will
polish off the 29-year-old Charles,
with the same process he used in
January, 1949. in winning the
llight-heavy title from Freddie
Mills.
"He wore Mills down with blind
ing lefts to the head and hard
two-f1sted body attacks for nine
rounds. Kearns said. In the 10th,
he set Mills up with a left and
knocked him out with a right to
the jaw"
Maxim. a ring name adopted
from machine gun when Kearns
learned his fighter actually an
swered to Giuseppe Antonio Ber-
Iardinelli, has not defended his
llight-heavy title since beating
Mills for 1t.
The Fancy Dan. with one of
the best lefts in the business. is
a So underdog in the latest odds
No matter what style Maxim
employs. Charles isn't worried. He
has worked 104 rounds and looks
calmly upon his eighth heavy
weight defense in % months.
Maxim apparently is trying to-
get more leverage on his punches" :"
