Public business is best conducted in the open. Did you ever try te fellow the making of the city budget in "the old days"? If you did, you knew hew little of the process was conducted openly, or se it could attract attention. It Is Different This Year. Why? This year, public budget hearings before the full body of Council bring the planning of the spend ing of your tax money out into your view. Citizens attend these meetings. Newspapers report them fully. Every member of Council is publicly respon sible. The prevision in the new City Charter requiring these hearings was proposed and adopted through the efforts of the Bureau of Municipal Research. The new City Council itself is a guarantee of less secrecy. Twenty-one members sit in one body where formerly 145 members sat in two bodies. Each man is in the spotlight. It is easier te fellow their actions. Yeu, as a citizen, may knew mere about your public affairs. ' 0 But There Are Still Many Things Which Yeu Are Net Encouraged te Knew THERE is something sinister, something that excites the. suspicion of all honest men, in a closed deer; and yet many vital matters concerning the administration of the city of Philadelphia, the administration of your public affairs, that still are net discussed in the open or made easy of access. "' Why should net the Sinking Fund Commission, the Fairmount Park Commission, the Free Library Beard, the Art Jury, the Zoning Commission, the Municipal Pension Beard,' the Museum Trustees, the Beard of Prison Inspectors, "the Beards of Judges and all the ether deliberative bodies of the city government open their sessions and their records as fully and frankly te the public as has the City Council, the most important of them all? Why is net the public encouraged te fellow their delib erations, te attend their meetings? Why arc net their minutes and their records open te citizens and taxpayers at all reason able times? Why is it that citizens are repeatedly denied and dis couraged from access te the public records in the City Con troller's office, and that even the written communications of public officials asking information about city finances are ignored?. The day has passed when public business was a private perquisite and a private concern. The day has passed when the personal probity of any individual or individuals can be offered alone as an evidence 'of satisfactory conduct of your public business. In a democracy thz individual citizen is responsible for conditions. Consequently, he must have the facts. Secrecy in a Democracy Is Dangerous If you advocate open hearings en public business; en all mat ters concerning the disposition of your money; if you advocate free access te public records then you are for the Bureau of Municipal Research and you should sign this coupon below se we can have your help m procuring open dealing en all matters concerning your city government. te CITIZENS' COUPON (55) llurrnu of Muulripil llc.rurrh, 803 l'rftnhlln Hank Hid.. riilliulelplilu I desire te Knew mere about the wertttnif of your organization and I am particularly Interested In (check topic of greatest Interest te you) ",lere3,eu "' tciec 1- Cleaner streets. 2, Mere pay for iiclioel teachers. 3.
