HEAR ST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, CJA., wUNDAY, AUGUST 31, 1913. 5 D L ORD HALDANE, High Chancellor of Great Britain, now on the third day of a five-day flying trip to the United States and Canada, who inspected the cadets at West Point yesterday and will leave for England Tuesday after address ing the American Bar Association at Montreal. L Thomas W, Shelton Demands Fixed Interstate Judicial Rela tions Before Judges Confer. MONTREAL*, Aug. 30-—Thomas W. Shelton, of Virginia, was the princi pal speaker to-night before the Con ference of Judges, composed of the 48 chief Judges of the States, the Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of ihe District of Columbia, the nine presiding Judges of the nine Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal, a Federal judge from Hawaii and the Chief Jus tice of Porto Rico. It was the first conference of judges ever held in the history of the United States, and it was held* on foreign soil. The object is to bring about uniformity in judicial procedure among the States through fixed in terstate judicial relations, and pro mote closer relations between the courts. "There is," said Mr. Shelton, “no more excuse for differing court pro cedure among the State* than for the use of different languages. The prac tical men of commerce are demand ing the Injection of practical com mon sense in the machinery of the courts, and Congress and the Legis latures are being called upon to give the courts the necessary power. It has been long since apparent that unless judicial procedure was re formed by the bench and bar, it would be attempted by persons more selfish than patriots." The speaker declared that the courts and lawyers were helpless; that, “under the policy of Congress and that of nearly all the States,” the Judge is bound hand and foot by rigid statutes. Asa result, the courts have been accused of incompetency and the lawyers of Indifference con cerning a condition they did not cre ate and are helpless to remedy.

January. In addition to the City Manager, the charter provides for five commission ers, but their duties will be purely legislative.

T) complete the balance of power, the people are given the right to the ini tiative, referendum, protest and re call. Ward Lines Are Eliminated. An in-tergral part of the Dayton plan of government Is the short non partisan ballot and the elimination of ward lines. At the same time a long list of petty offices are taken off the ballot and made appointive. Under the new plan the commissioners are chosen for a four-year term, half of the body being elected every two years. This feature of concentrating responsibility in the hands of a tmW men was desperately fought by all of the old party machines. The administration of the city is divided into five departments, the heads of which are appointed by the Manager. All remaining city officers are subject to civil service appoint ment. A unique feature is the creation of a department of socle’ welfare, which. In addition to supervising the depart ments of health, parks and play grounds, must make Inquiries into the causes of poverty and disease in the city, and make recommendations to the legislative body. Plan for Scientific Budget. The new charter is also unusual in providing for the complete adminis trative machinery of the city, de signed in harmony with the most ad vanced ideas of city management. Plans are made for a scientific bud get, complete auditing of city ac counts, a modern accounting system, purchasing agent, standardization of city supplies, time and service records .and many other advances. These in novations are the result of investiga tions made by the Charter Commis sion into the government of New York, Philadelphia and Cincinnati. The new charter will take effect January 1, 1914. The charter ls said to be the most advanced ever adopted by an Ameri can city. Dayton is the first city of any size in the country to acquire a city manager, and the first to Com bine the best features of the old com mission plan with the manager idea.
