Of the Municipal Reference Bureau, The Chamber of Converse in Kansas City, Kan., has taken up the discussion of the plan and much interest is being shown by the members of the chamber. A petition is being circulated in Arkansas City for the city manager plan. Other offices which are owned by the Chamber, New City, Wallington, Pratt, St. Francis, and Port Scott. Cities who already have the plan in operation are Wichita, D. Fortress, Michigan, Belville, Stuckman, St. Louis, Boca Raton, St. Kaira, Iowa, and Winfield. There are certain fundamental requirements that a good city government must satisfy, according to Walker. It must be close to the taxpayers, responsive to their wishes and providing reliable public services at a price they can afford to pay. The three plans of American city government at the present time are: the mayor's own dtypes; the commissioner's plan; and the city manager's plan, which is an excellent great deal of interest over the state. Voters Select on Short Ballot Under the city manager plan the voters select on a short ballot, an or by district in a legislative, political or mission mission. It usually consists of from three to nine members, with a low number in the larger cities, which are usually a chairman who acts as mayor The council passes all ordinances levies taxes, approves the budge makes appropriations necessary to finance the city's general policies. The numbers of this council may be re-formed for failure to perform their duties. The fact that the city manager stands between the council and the rest of the city organization makes it easy to fix upon him responsibility for the conduct of the whole administration. The council is charged with the selection of the city manager, a trained executive who is experienced in handling city problems. He must advise the council on issues and alone for the execution of the policy laid down for him by the council and in the performance of his duties. 2 details of city administration are required from the council to be removed by the council at any time. Responsibility Easy To Determine. This system remedies the doff or the commission plan, according to Walker, by retaining a feature of the council that allows the mayor to consider essential namely the separation of executive and legislative functions. The direct election of the council represents the voters' desire to revise the policies and the provision for the repurchase instead of the election of the city's chief executive officer, ensuring that a competent executive may be secured, as its dis As a combination of executive and legislative ability is not needed, the councilman may be men who present all walks of life and who are well fitted to pass the city's laws and determine its policies.

"Two million knights of the hobo kingdom have the seat of their government here. "Though this government has no authority, its laure is evident to the impatient eyes of youth.
