City Managers

The Whitefish Chamber of Commerce should
be congratulated for bringing Missoula's new city
manager, Walton R. L. Taylor to the Flathead as
speaker at the annual dinner Tuesday.
Business of keeping streets improved, water
system operating, police and fire protection func-
tioning, disposing of garbage and making city
attractive is major operation
In Columbia Falls mayor and six councilmen
serve without pay. In somewhat larger commune
ties there is minimum pay.
The audience at Whitefish was much interested
in Taylor's remarks. He told OF the start OF city
manager operations back in Staunton, Va. IN 1908
then city of about 5000 people. Staunton, rail-
road division point, obtained the services of the
railroads division engineer to coordinate cleaning
up and fixing UP the city. Then in 1911 Fort Sumter
S. c. (where the Civil War started in 1861 adopt
ed the city manager plan of government essentially
as known today.
Taylor formerly city manager at Hopkins,
Mimi, just outside Minneapolis, but Virginia
tive, said that today 1900 American cities have city
managers One third of the cities between $500 and
5000 people have adopted the plan.
He referred to the development as bringing the
American system of corporate business to city adj
ministration Stockholders own corporation and
hire the best available talent to operate their plants
He told the audience that city manager is
employed by and at the will Of a mayor and city
council. He operates Housekeeping large scale
for them. He detailed the operations essentially
physical appearance, Streets and garbage disposal
ing comment that householder pays about
cents ton for water.
He said that in Missoula through centrally
operated bulk buying by city manager about 1000
would be saved this year. His salary is $4,000 q
year. Missoula spends about 100000 year.
Taylor warned against city thinking it had the
city manager form of government if it just hired
an engineer, and the mayor and councilmen con-
tinued to work out details of government.
He said that last year between IS and 80 cite.
adopted the manager form, and that only rs out Of
1926 cities that had adopted this form of govern
ment through the years had rejected it. Some o.
the Is returned later to city managers.
Citizens of the Flathead are certainly interested
in the topic Government by trained men respon-
sible to elected officials mayor and the council
would seem more efficient than government BY
elected men who have their own problem of making
living To them municipal government must O.
necessity be sideline, and even so, it has cos
men like Herman Benzien, Ernie Massman ant
Chris Raaen considerable money to be mayor.
The whole subject is certainly interesting Their
are 100000 Americans living in cities that hav
city managers. It seems like the coming form o
municipal government. MI

want to commend you for your
recent editorial on Flathead's need
of trade school or junior college.
feel that our young people need
the stimulation such a school
would give them to finish their
high school education and receive
at least a year or two Of college

The moderate cost OF attendance
would be a further advantage Of a
local college as the students could
live at home.
hope that the idea will grow

Interpreting News
by J. M. Roberts Associated Press News Analyst

The crudity with which Messre. Khrushchev and Bull ganin turned their Indian good will tour into an anti-Western campaign is reported to have embarrassed prime minister Nehru and other Indian offic- ials.
 They laid out the red carpet for the visitors from Moscow, only to see them walk all over 'she lawn anyway.
 India is trying hard to estaIb- fish her neutral position in the world. It's neutrality win leftist leanings and sympathy from Russia because Russia, too, professes to be against col onialism. But India constantly offers herself as mediator of disputes.
 To have her premises used as the base attack by invective vio lates her position as friend to all.
 Neihru, who is so much MT. India" that his actions usually receive only praise, has been criticized by part of the Indian press for getting the country into such a position, and for his extreme efforts to glorify the Russian visit.
 His mobilization of vast children's demonstrations has been questioned as producing indoctrination during an inn questionable period which may bode ill for the country later. For one of the strange factors in the Indian position is the firm stand taken Iby the govern ment against domestic commun ists while playing fotsie with them in the international field
 It's as though Nehru is will ing to take chances abroad, for the sake of embarrassing the West, with something he will not put up with at home.
 There is evidence, however, that the Khrushchev-Bulga visit has worked in reverse both for them and for Nehru. Right at this moment relations with the Indian government, which is firmly entrenched, would seem to be more important to Moscow than relations with the Indian people.
 But the visitors seem to have made more progress with the people, while causing officials to look great deal more close ly at Russian motives. Nehru would like to balance between Russia and the West withoht { getting his people involved.
 The, Russians have moved on into Burma with their anti 1 Western line, and may find it |
