J. A bill now tn the legts latum aims to set up a single system of admlnlatralion for Jersey City and the 12 other municipalities surrounding It, and along with them, the rural districts of the county. This idea has been broached in several other counties. in various states, but has always met with strong opposition from the smaller communities and the more sparsely settled areas. It may be viewed with more favor, as time passes, in counties like that In New Jersey, where there are so many ad- , joinnug overlapping jurisdictions, with all their costly duplications of public buildings, office-holders, etc. Efficiency would dictate the elimination . of the superfluous offices and equip- I m“nt in public administration as in I private business, and the working out of unified development plans for the whole county. Th« human element, < however, offers difficulties. Farmers and villagers are afraid of high taxes and one town is prejudiced against another. Townships axe regarded as sacred. Yet future progress surely lies along that line. — ■■ —o MANY STEAM BOILERS NOT BEING EXAMINED (United Press Service) . Indianapolis.
