They have to make a big showing to cover up their crimes. "If a housewife managed her domestic affairs the way Michigan i.ity has been operated under the old form of government she would drive her husband Into bankruptcy. And Michigan City Is little different from any other city. "We have outgrown the old method of city government. Under the city manager plan five commissioners will be elected to constitute the board of directors of the city Incorporation. They will employ a city manager at a salary that will attract the right calibre of man or woman. The city manager will employ the heads of departments and the town will be run on a strictly business basis. Employes won't be selected ror vote-getting ability." LAPORTE WOHBX WATCH BKSVLTs.
