Isaiah 1 : IS WASHINGTON MAY HELP WHERE STATES FAIL It is probably true that some of the most far-reaching changes m national life are those which get under way un noticed and take shape without anyone having worked con sciously for them. Prof. Charles li Merriam, head of the Department of ; Political Science at the University of Chicago, suggests that such change now maybe starting in relations of city gov ernments to governments of state and nation. Writing in the current issue of Public Management, Prof. Merriam points out that the city is coming into far closer relationship these days with Washington than with its own state c pi ti. The City's irrtpoi tncc as- a political unit has increased in the depression years, and Washington's sway over internal af fail's likewise has increased. The state capital, on, the other hand, has had a progressively smaller part to play, especially in connection with af fail's of cities. This, as he remarks, U largely because the chief problems affllcUng cities lately have been national problems, which require n. tonal action for their solution. Cities hare gone short of rash, they have needed -o launch public works, they have needed hiie ums to support jobless citizens; and in almost every .case they have turned to Washington for help, and not to their own state capitals At the same time, stale governments have been slow to give the cities the relief that they might. Metropolitan districts cannot form unified government, to eliminate expensive waste and lost motion, without cute consent, v This consent seldom Is forthcoming. There Is rural jealousy of urban domination, there. Is Intricate trading for petty favors, there is frequently undue consideration In the statehou for special vested interests. The state. remarks Prof. Merriam. "neither will grant autonomy to the citiea nor will it assume the burden of administrative supervision over them. The state neither wiU rule uor permit anyone else to rule over metropolitan regions- . There are Innumerable fields in which city activities could tie In neatly with a federal pattern In education. In health, in public works. In public welfare services, tn handling of Interests of business and labor. Do we stand today on the vers of a great shift which vastly will dim inish tmportanoe of the state government, and strengthen ties between city hail and national capital? IUSINKSS ACTIVITY O.tlNS WASHINGTON, Jan. 38 W A trend not only toward higher whole sale commodity prices but also to ward Increased business activity was noted today by Federal agencies that keep tab on such, figures.
