who would follow municipal po litical career There are not enough business and professional people active in local gov ernment By this am not trying to in suit any man or his trade but when you start dealing with thousands and millions of dollars you must have men who knows what he is talking about and what is going on said Mayor CImpbelL Detrimentsl to ood munlclle gov ernment is the belef in the minds of some elected representatives that exper ience means the number of years Ipent in office Tire truth is that years in of fice is no guide to quellfled munlclle IdministrItor The iIllure in perIte buy tness can be elected to munici at office It is one of those odd fIcta of tie that person who cannot miss success of is own business is entrusted with re sponsibility in the monument and ad ministration of the most complex buIi ness to be found The Igfieatlon of Mayor Campbell for mu It course and written ex Iminetions or municipal candidates makes good sense And it has nothing to do with democrIc The people would still have the freedom of choice to vote for candidates who have proved them selves as ualifled to conduct municipal business is only through the elect on of qualified

behavior Some of the explanations put forward have appeared so logical that they have rcccivco general Eubllc acceptance pan Lticclrul among ose to whom the sci once psychology remains much of mystery Because of this the writer contin ueslt may be expected that whole com munltles of quite ordinary people will shortly be thrown into mental tizzy as soon as they hear about the latest sycho loglical discovery which has to with litl An American motivational research unit hired two years ago by nut com fany to find out why sales of nuts were liinghas come up with this answer The sale of edible nuts

the nut people to market jars of their product containing fiftyflve cash ews and fortyfive peanuts in future just to make sure However neither this compromise nor the psychological teams analysis as
