Ex-Mayor Joseph Halloran today confessed himself an ardent supporter of the commission form of govern- ment but said it will take some tiine to put through this reform Britain because of the opposition which the politicians will make. Judg- ing from the opposition which the movement for an entirely new ' city charter has met, Mr. Halloran believes that the preesnt attempt at charter revision will not bripg about any radical changes. Ths history of the movement {o incorporate the old town government of New Britain into the city govera- ment will be repeated in the move- ment for commission government, says Mr. Halloran. The politicians who held office in the old town gov- ernment banded together to defeat the reform to do away with the par- asitic system. There is just as much duplication of duties and resulting in- efficlency in the. present form of city government as when the town and city governments were dividing the tax receipts among each other. The politicians in the old town gov- ernment held out for five or six years and Mr. Halloran thinks the resisting powers of the present politicians should be estimated according to history. Mr. Halloran said his were exactly those expressed in following editorial from the Bridge- port Post: 7 It is interesting to. note what ths opponents of the ‘commission ‘formof government have to say, and ‘‘Hoyo,"” the Republican writer in the Sunday Post, yesterday marshalled about all of the arguments available. They have little foundation in fact and nat- urally represent the feeling of those in political power, or those who are feeding at the public crib by the grace of some political party. We neyer argued that commission sentiments political booster, who works only for his pocket and cares not what be- comes of the city. It is decidedly | against his interests and if he doesn't , fight like thunder against it he isn't a regular politician. ““Hoyo’s” reason for opposing com- { mission government, although it Is publicly favored by Mayor Wilson and John T. King, is that he does nct believe in centralizing all the control of municipal affairs in five men and fears the recall may not always be used judiciously. In answer to this wa will say five men with the recall fea- | ture are a good deal safer than twen- ty-four men with no recall. The recall has a great moral effect and is sel- dom used. There is a little chance for it to be used unfairly. There must be a visible indignation before the public CASTORIA | For Infants and Children.

W HERALD, National T 'hberculosi's—ijay Starts W War Against Worst of Human These children are taken from Chicago homes where one or more members of the family are tubercu- lous. The Elizabeth McCormick Open Air School, located on the roof of Hull House, is building them up and educating them at the same time. Exercise is part of the regular school curriculum. There are nearly 500 schools of this character now in various parts of the United State Six years ago there were only two. A picture is also shown of Dr. Rob- ert Koch, the discoverer of the germ of tuberculosis and the founder of the modern anti-tuberculosls cam- paign. A feature of the white plague fight in America is the national tu- berculosis day. This year it falls on Sunday, Nov. 29. Properly speaking, the day is elastic, covering Nov. 28 and 29, with the week preceding and following those days. Sermons on the danger of the disease will be preached in many pulpits. The cam- paign is entirely nonsectarian. The first of December sees the opening of the Red Cross seal campaign for the benefit of the white plague fight. will rise ‘and use the recall, and yet it is an available weapon should any commissioner commit a public wrong. At the present time we have no check on any office holder and when questionable measures are passed by the common council it is almost im- possible to fix the responsibility. That is the great cry of these times—to fix the responsibility. ’ Of course commission government will not work smoothly without high grade men to operate it, but it af- fords a means to aid the man who really wishes to administer his office for the best interests of the city. Hels not nominated by any political party, and he does not have to go to some political boss to see what he shall do, or whom he shall appoint. One of the chief things claimed for,commission government is that by doing away with party conventions and party nominations it induces ev- ery, one to take an interest in the government of this city. .Anyone with a petition of 100 signatures can be a candidate for a commissioner- | ship. He does not run on any ticket | and can ask for the votes of all cit-! izens. We doubtless need political parties for state and national government, but they are useless in city govern- ! ment if we only think so. Now, a| man expects a soft berth, whether ho [ is competent or not, because he has been a faithful party worker. Under | the commission form no one gets a | Job unless he is capable. Once get- | ting it he keeps it under civil service rules. There would be no turning the rascals out every two years just to make room for other rascals. i There are many more good things | that can be said about the commls- | sion plan in spite of ‘“Hoyo’s” fears.
