WOODMEN TO HOLD SMOKER Steelton Camp of the Modern Wood men of America will hold a smoker this Evening, and will Initial# a larg# ulaaa of candidates. CITY IS TOLD ABOUT ALTOONA [Continued from First Page.] that some newspapers in Altoona are criticising this administration, but all I have to say is that if this trial Is not successful it will be because the people of Altoona cannot stand being eliminated from political privi leges in city governing." llotv Altoona Did It "We were rather fortunate in the manner of selecting our commission ers," began Mr. Hinkle, a man of poise and .confidence. "We had a town meeting, composed of busi nessmen mostly and selected a board with practically no experience in politics. They agreed to serve the city providing that a manager would take charge of all departments. This they did because they were business men. "To say that Altoona was surpris ed at the result is to put it mildly; and I was surprised to find myself business manager. lam a mechani cal engineer by vocation, and the more I see of handling with effi ciency a city's affairs, the more I am convinced that what a city needs is the engineer, in railways, sanitary needs, hydraulics and many other activities. My observations would say, first, an engineer; second, a businessman. "Altoona began by appointing a city accountant, tlie most import ant step. To show how tangled was the situation previously, the retir ing administration reported there was $2 50,000' funds available, and when we came to take account we bound but $9OO. The fact gleaned by our auditor discovered more than $16,000 of bills for which there was no accounting. Ovcrliaijleil "This, in turn, suggested a pur chasing department which identi fied a shortage of thousands oiit-- standing on mortgages and judg ments. There were uninvested sink ing fund monies amounting to $lOO,- 000. We promptly invested them and earned over SG,OOO the first year. This change resulted in re tiring $270,000 worth of bonds. "We overhauled the tax depart ment from top to bottom and have established a standard method of filing and locating property so there is no delay for the citizen; likewise this new mod<*rn method reduced the amount of help required. "Previous to the city management our city had no way of checking up expenses, but now tlie purchasing department makes five copies of every request. One goes to the ac countant to determine whether funds are available. Proper au thority is established and the result is an immense saving on cash dis counts." "We no longer hp.ve a city treas urer paid partly from fees. Te gets a fixed salary; this bureau is so effi cient that it collected an advance of $lO,OOO on estimated taxes. "The bureau of permits is a won derful thing for Altoona. One man likndlos all these permits excepting those dealing with plumbing and building which need specialists. "One of the fine features is the bureau of complaints, by which sys tem every kind of complaint is re ported to one man, just as in a po lice blotter. If tbe report gets no response tbe complaint is turned over within 4 8 hours for immediate action from the manager."

He explained how an incinerating plant had been started at Altoona before the new management came in. Too much feeding stuff was being wasted, so toona gives its piggery men nothing to cart away garbage and feed it to his pigs. But while Harrisburg pays the Heagy firm $2,000 u month to feed city garbage to the Heagy pigs, Al toona give its piggery men nothing but; the use of city garbage wagons to remove the offall. The incinerator is operated also to burn up stuff not feedable, but this is paid for by merchants who have the bulk of refuse which should be burned. Thomas C. Hare, city solicitor of Altoona, made a strong plea for home rule in cities. He said lie did not come to Harrlsburg to prescribe a specific remedy for local ills, be cause of the thirty-seven third class cities in the state varying in popula.- tion from 10,000 to 100,000, the problems differ as widely as the pop ulation. and a form of government that might best suit one locality might not. in the minds of the peo ple, fit another. He said that Harrisburg, as the capital city of the state, has relations with the state government which no other city has. and to that degree at least is different from the others. As the capital, he added, this city ought to be made a model In every respect after which other cities every where might pattern. He said the fault of present methods lies more with the unwillingness of the Legislature to grant privileges of selfgovernment to cities, than with tlie personality of those charged with the administration of local gov ernment, they being woefully limit ed in what they may or may not do with respect to conduct of municipal affairs. Home rule, he said, which would give tlie cities of the Com monwealth the right to govern them selves as they saw fit. is the only remedy he knows for present ills.
