THE CITY MANAGER SYSTEM
At a meeting of the international association of city
managers, held last week at Grand Rapids, Mich., it
was announced that 35S cities are now under the city
manager system, as against 33 in 1914. Only three cities
which have tried the plan have returned to the old
system.
One thing that the city manager system does is to
fix the responsibility definitely. Under it there is o
uncertainty as to which official should look after this or
that activity or function of government. The city man- j
ager is qualified by training and experience for his i
work, just as the manager of any business must be I
qualified. And the city manager system removes the j
injustice of depending on business men who have affairs ;
of their own to look after; to give time and thought and j
labor, without condensation, to details of municipal j
affairs.
Eugene has outgrown its present form of govern- i
went. It is too large and too important and too wealthy
a city to continue to depend upon its business men to
administer its affairs in detail. The city manager sys
tem is a good thing for us to be thinking about and con
sidering here. Eugene .Guard.

STEWARD
LETTER'
American recognition of Soviet Russia has been set
back to a more distant date in the future than was anti
cipated some months back, as a result of recent develop
ments in China. It is feared the threatened civil war
may break up. the customs conference which is a pet
project of Secretary of State Kellogg. Russian gold and
supplies have been freely given General Feng, the so
called "Christian General," and admittedly the strong
man of China at the present time. Russia would wel
come a chance to force the powers out of their present
strong position in the far east. The customs confer
ence which is seeking to fix a Chinese tariff typefies this
strength. It remains to be seen whether Feng will
play the Russian game or revert to the typically Chinese
practice of taking all he can get and then seeking new
friends.

Letters From
The 'People
The unexpected has happened in the Mitchell trial
and War Department officials are running around tear
ing their hair. It was confidently expected when the
courtmartial was ordered that Mitchell would be asked
if he had actually assailed his superiors as charged and
them, when he admitted his statements, the military
o.ourt would either impose sentence or dismiss the case.
The "hard boiled" military court turned around and
permitted the "flying colonel" to introduce evidence to
show his charges were well founded, a thing unheard of
in similar cases. The gossips are now whispering that
the eminent generals want to let the American public see
that the present economy program is seriously crippling
the national defense so that increased appropriations
will be available.
The Remarkably lenient terms accorded the Italians
on their $2,000,000,000 debt are taken generally as an
indication that the American Debt Funding Commission
will treat France with possibly more leniency than was
considered some months back, if the French government
decides to again seek a settlement. Although the dis
turbed condition of French finances has been aggrevat
ed by the overthrow of the cabinet, hopes are still held
that a way will be found to decide on terms of paying
off the $4,000,000,000 owed this country. Talk of a
capital levy in France is disturbing to Administration of
ficials who believe it would merely aid French bankers
in the long run as they would be the ones benefitting by
the enormous private loans required in a capital levy.
The shipping board scored heavily in its exchange
with President Coolidge over policy, when the price
secured for four passenger vessels from the Munson
Line was made public. Admiral Leigh C. Palmer, de
posed head of the Emergency Fleet Corporation recom
mended accepting an offer of $750,000 a piece for the
shins which are now in the South American service.
The board refused the bid and demanded Palmer's
resignation. The president made known his displesure
over that action in no uncertain terms. Then the board
turned around and secured $1,026,000 apiece for the
liners.
WASHINGTON President I'ool
Idgo. one of whose main ambitions
ns everybody known, is to rid t ho
government of every bureau, division,
commission and board it fan possib
ly do without, and to consolidate the
rest, got a valuable tip from ''ount
Giuseppe Volpi di Mlsurata while
the Italijn debt settlement negotia
tions were going on here.
As Premier Mussolini's minister
of finance, the count took a leading
part in boiling the Home govern
ment down to a fraction the size of
the unwieldy thing the fascist chief
tan found on his hands when he pro
claimed his dictatorship.
It was just the story to fall like
music on the thrifty presidential
ear. Some say that, from the minute
he heard It. the national executive
favored giving the Italians better
terms. But that's a joke.
At any rate, self contained as he
usually is. all accounts agree that he
glowed with Interest and admiration
as Volpi described, through an in
terpreter, the thoroughness of Musso
lini's job.
More than 50 bureaus were abol
ished in three years, personnel, of
fices, duties and all. -Many others.
v,ere merged. Tho economy amounted
to millions and tho government, the
count said, is more efficiently ad
ministered today than over before.
Of course, this is the fascist version,
Volpi being one. Evidently others dis

son, general sales manager of the
Hupp Motor far Corporation. The
Car has been tbe largest selling
straight eight In the world almost
since the clay lust January when
it was announced.
"Tho sale of this record number
of cars Is a tribute never before
paid any fin- motor car." says Mr.
Hutchinson. It means that never
before has a car of comparable price
been bought in'such large volume
during its first year. Since our sub
stantial reduction in its price, sales
have continued at an even higher
rate.
"The performance It has given,
coupled with the reputation which
has .consistently attached to the
name Hupmobile for more than 15
years, are LWO strong factors in tho
ear's success. In recent weeks
its performance lias been strikingly
emphasized by three new and bril-
lant endurance and speed records
which three different models have
established in tho hands of three
different drivers, two of them using
their own personal cars."
