TACTICAL ERRORS

Given the deep-seated opposition of the
Missoula working classes to the manager
plan, it would seem that the Missoula Com
mission erred in bringing up controversial
issues which aroused these groups and
which might have been deferred at no great
loss in civic progress have in mind speci-
fically the garbage issue and the suspen-
sion of Fire Chief Clare Kern. Both are
involved issues in which the commission
and manager were technically right but
both provoked popular resentment and
desire to circulate petitions calling for an
election on the question of the continuance
of the manager plan. The garbage proposal,
which would have proved lucrative to the
city, involved granting a franchise to an
out-of- Estate firm to the exclusion of local
haulers The suspension of Fire Chief Kern

Dy 1HOHudS dyue, ASSocidIe 1T
Missoula's experience of more
than four years with the commission
manager plan of city government
came to an end on November 4,
1868, with its defeat at the polls.
In this discussion I should like to
express my views on the record of
manager government in Missoula
and suggest factors which help to
explain it's Abandonment.
The council-manager plan of city gov
ernment (referred to as the commission
manager plan in Montana laws) has en-
joyed extraordinary success in America
since its beginning in Staunton, Virginia,
in 1908. 1t is now employed by more than
1900 American cities and appears destined
to become the prevailing form of city gov
ernment in the United States. Most poll
tical scientists prefer it to the other forms
of city government for cities in the 5000
to 100000 population range-a preference
shared by this writer.
What, then, led to the abandonment of
manager government in Missoula after so
brief trial? Results of the closely con-
tested election at which the plan was de-
feated are, at first glance, unenlightening.
A total of nearly 10000 votes were cast,
with 1876 per cent voting for the manager
plan and 51.4 per cent opposing it. An
examination Of the results on a precinct
by-precinct basis is more revealing In no
precinct north of the Clark Fork River
which separates the newer and older sec
tions of the city, did manager government
receive majority of the VOTE On the other
hand precincts south of the river generally
supported the manager plan.
A most striking contrast in voting be-
havior is found from examining the vote
in those precincts lying north of the North
ern Pacific Railway tracks and west of the
Bitterroot branch line tracks as compared
with the vote in precincts east of Higgins
Avenue and south of the river The man
ager plan was defeated by vote of ap-
proximately three-to-one in the precincts |
to the north and west of the railroad tracks, |
while it carried by three-to-one vote in |
the precincts in the University section ly-
ing to the east of Higgins Avenue and |
south of the river. The vast gulf disclosed
by this vote has significance for Missoula |
transcending in Importance the immediate
issue of city government.
"a HATEFUL SYMBOL"
The people's voice., 1959-08-07

Nothing is more unpleasant than a
virtuous person with a mean mind. A
highly developed moral nature joined to
an undeveloped intellectual nature, an
undeveloped artistic nature, is of neces-
sity repulsive.-Walter Bagehot.
The people's voice., 1959-08-07


while it connoted good government to the
professional and managerial classes. The
supporters of city manager government
were largely unsuccessful in conveying
their image of it's good government fea-
lures across Missoula's railroad track bar
riers. Indeed, in retrospect, it would appear
that the proponents were simply talking to
themselves in their campaign before Ro-
tary, Kiwanis, the Chamber of Commerce,
and other civic and professional groups.
One might aruge that the more group
affiliations voter had, the more likely he
was to vote for the manager plan. By the
same token those with few or no group
memberships probably tended to vote
against the plan. An interesting aspect of
this pattern was revealed in a survey con-
Quoted by some of my students in three
of the so-called working class precincts
north of the tracks about ten days before
the election. We asked a representative
sample of voters selected from precinct
registration lists as to their position on
manager government and as to whether
they were members of union.
Our interest in union affiliation as re-
lated to the attitude of our sample of
voters on the question of manager govern
ment was prompted by the oft-repeated
allegations of union opposition to council
manager government. The results of our
poll indicated that union members were
opposed to the manager plan in a ratio of
three-to-two while, significantly, nom
union workers in those precincts opposed
the plan by ten-to-one ratio! An explana-
tion of the full import of these results is
beyond the scope of this essay, but they
show clearly that unions were not the de-
terminative factor many have assumed in
the defeat of commission-manage govern
ment.

aroused the sympathies of many of his
friends, to whom the action appeared SIM
ply as the firing of lifelong local resi-
dent by an out-of-state city manager.
| No objective observer could deny that
Missoula made substantial progress under
the commissions manager plan of city gov
ernment Some of the gains undoubtedly
will be preserved under the new alder
manic government, which took over Of
| ficially on May A, 1869. 1t is one of the
ironies of Missoula politics that the voters,
after abandoning the manager plan, chose
new twelve-member city council in which
at least eight of the members favored
manager government; the elected mayor
and other city-wide officials were also
supporters of the manager plan.
WEAKENS LOCAL POLITICAL
RESPONSIBILITY
Missoula's experience with manager
government was brief. From it, however,
one gets number of impressions as to it's
strengths and weaknesses for Montana
cities. Generally, there is considerable op-
position to bringing in professional man.
ager from out of state, or out of city. The
commission-manager plan, while eliminat-
ing party politics in local elections, tends
also to make difficult the development of
responsible political leadership I noted a
tendency for the elected commission at
times to evade responsibility for unpopular
policy decisions and, in effect, pass the
buck to the manager. There was wide
spread criticism of the election of the five
commission members at large rather than
by wards as is the practice under alder.
manic government.
One comes, however, to have fuller
appreciation for the great contribution
which a professionally trained and exper-
fenced city manager can make in dealing
with the maze of complex technical prob
lens besetting a modern city. The greater
efficiency and economy to be derived from
sound business methods and fiscal pro-
cedures is impressive No one can fail to
note the beginnings of real progress in
Missoula in the past four years-progress
in planning, in better methods of street
construction, in recreation, in traffic con-
troll and in generally facing up to the
consequences of many years of neglect.
This progress constitutes an enduring mon
ument to commission manager government
