the EASY WAY TO SLICE
Magazine Discussed
By County League
Broadsides Articles Presented Before Group at
Monday Evening Meeting t
An interesting program embodying discussion of timely
subjects was presented to a small group of member of the
Klamath County League of Women Voters Monday evening,
January eighteenth, in the small club room of the city library.
Mrs. Everett R. Dennis, president of the league, presided.
An Interesting interpretation and discussion of two Broad
sides, league publication, was given by Mrs. Paul Buck. The
first of the Broadsides took up "
the subject of the Oregon State
hospital and its needs for
funds. Mrs. Buck explained
why funds were so desperately
needed, and what the state
legislature is faced with in
allowing these funds. She
emphasized the necessity for
far reaching and broadminded
future planning rather than
an unstudied pouring of funds
into state institutions brought
about by certain legislators
who might start such a move
for political prestige.
. The second Broadside dis
cussed by Mrs. Buck was on
the subject of the Ruml plan
for next year's taxes. She
gave a lucid explanation of
this plan with its problems
and good and bad points.
Mrs. Lena Dennis gave a
pictorial outline of the county
reorganization plan. A leg
islative bill to be introduced
at Salem this winter will be an
enabling act allowing counties
of Oregon to formulate re
organization plans.
At present, Mrs. Dennis
pointed out, county officials
are directly responsible only
to the voter for the conduct of
their offices. There Is no ex
ecutive or head of county gov
ernment. . If counties reorganize, and
the county manager plan is
put into effect, there would be
three - distinct departments.
First, all tax assessing and col-
lecting bodies. , Second, pub
lic health-and welfare groups,
and third, the public works
.and judicial departments, . all
directly- respohsible to .the
county manager. .
County managership, ac
cording to Mrs. Dennis, is a
profession for which many are
preparing.-A county manager
can not afford not to be a suc
cess, and therefore will not
allow himself to be cluttered
with politics and petty bick
erings. In this, system, she
' continued, it is easy to put a
finger on anything put of line
without long ..and. expensive
investigation...
. People interested in the plan
are urged to write legislators
of this district asking them to
consider it and to vote for.the
enabling bill when It comes
before the legislature.
- Mrs. H. P. Bosworth closed
the evening's program with a
discussion of the merit system,
