(Continued from Page 1.) demnation such property as may be required for public purposes, and to dispose of property no longer needed for public use; to grant franchises and to fix the compensation to be received therefor; to erect, establish, maintain nd control hoslpitals, almshouses, pest houses and other similiar institutions within the county, and to regulate and control the same; to provide for advertising and printing; to audit the accounts of all county officers and to provide for proof of all claims against the county before their payment; to provide for competitive bidding for any county work and the making and awarding of contracts; to provide foi-the draining of swamp and low lands; to arrange and create election districts and precincts; to provide for recording and indexing of all public records, not provided for by general law; to designate Justices of the Peace who may constitute a county court, and to fix their compensation; to provide measures for the protection of the public health and to abate nuisances; to Construct, maintain and control highways, bridges and sltreets; to regulate the conditions under which live stock may pass over the public roads or streets; to pass fish and game laws; and regulate the making and maintenance of fences; to fix tax assessments and regulate the levy and collection of taxes; to provide for borrowing money on bonds, to provide for the appointment and removal of all cunty officers and to establish a merit system, if deemed desirable; to prevent the credit of the county being given or loaned to or in aid of any individual, association or eorpoiaton: and to amend the charter from time to time, when deemed expedient. While the exercise of some of the foregoing powers is; merely a matter of legislation, there are nevertheless many other powers in the exorcise of which the council will be required to meet from time to time throughout the year It may be said, in answer to this, that the council will delegate these powers to the County Manager. But can they dc it? Or will they do it? The powers being expressly vested in the council, it is difficult to see by what authoiity they can delegate them. And as long as the councilmen can draw $5 a day and traveling expenses, it is safe to assume that they will exercise all the powers/ they can and meet as often as possible. Allowing |5 a day for each councilman, and ?2 a day for traveling expenses, it will mean that the taxpayers of the county will have to pay at least $105 for each day the council convenes, and if the council exercises the various powers vested in it.it is dfficult to see how it can avoid meetng on an average of at least once each week during the year, in addition to the month they sit for the purpose of enacting legislation. This will mean an annual expense for the council alone of something like $8,000, in addition to the expense of the County Manager and the three department heads. And it is likely that a body of fifteen men—call them councilmen or commissioners, it matters not which—will give the county a more efficient and businesslike administration than three men? The experience of municipal bodies everywhere has been to the contrary. It is the same in private bodies or corporations—the larger the executive committee, the less efficient. Some years ago, at the insistence of some of our most reputable taxpayers, including men like the late E. Lynne Painter and Major John I. Yellott, the number of County Commissioners in Baltimore county was increased from three to five, in the belief that it would insure a more efficient and rep- resentative government of local affairs. But experience has shown that three commissioners can administer the affairs of the county as well, if not better than five, and it was as the result of this experience that the last legislature passed a law reducing tht number of Commissioners from five to three. And not a voice was raised in protest against the enactment of this law. The more one studies the framework of the governments established in the nation, state and county, the more one is disposed to admire the wisdom and foresight of the statesmen and lawmakers of former generations. So well did they accomplish their difficult tasks that it would seem that Providence must have guided them in their deliberations. There were no beaten paths to follow. The commission form of government, established by the framersj of the State Constitution for the counties of Maryland, has stood the test of years of trial and experience. It has proven to be simple, efficient and sufficient. It is difficult to see how it can well be improved upon. So why displace such a, form- o| government with an entirely new form, when there is no assurance whatsoever that the new form will be an improvement over the old? NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

COR. GAY and EAST STREETS Just One Short Block South of Belair Market "MOSE" HAS GOT 'EM ALL BEAT TO A "FRAZZLE" THE "Big Fellows"-—the silk-stockinged aristocrats of the clothing business—affect to be "moved" by the "Quaker Spirit," and announce a reduction of 20% on their prices. It's about time that these poor sinners had a change of heart. Their announcements sound very well and, indeed, they read very well, but do they mean anything? If they really are converted and want to do the right thing, "Mose" gives them right-hand of Christian fellowship. But it seems to "Mose" that-if it's the right kind of "spirit" that is "moving" them they ought to "lop off" another 20%, and still another, to get down to fai^ and reasonable prices. WITH all the reductions that are going on, "Mose's" prices are still 20 to 40 per cent, under others, and he backs them up the best clothing that can be made and a guarantee that they shall be as represented—or your money back. And "Mose" goes further and gives the most liberal prices ever offered by any clothing house in the city. A Man Who Works For The Best Interests Of The Masses 'Charity Covereth a Multitude of Sins" BUT if some of these high-priced clothiers are really penitent and want their old sins of extortion washed out, they'll have to come better than 20 per cent., and then "Mose" doubts if they'll be washed clean. By buying his cloth by the bolt from the best woolen mills in the country and making his garments up right here on his own premises, "Mose" has a big advantage over other clothing houses that buy their goods, and that's the reason he undersells them. Take the suits and Trousers that "Mose" advertises today, and he'll g|ve you the best in his stock if you can match them in any other store, big or little, in the city for less than a third to a half more money. Proof of the Pudding Is In the Eating" MOSES KAHN YOU can't eat clothes, of course, but you can prove them by wearing them, and there is no better way to prove values than by comparison. "Kahn's Good Klothes" have stood the test for nearly 30 years. "Mose" was "moved" by the right spirit when he went into the clothing business this long time ago, and he's put the best of himself—his best years, his talents, his energy, his honesty and integrity—into his w.ork— woven them into every garment that he's made—and he's proud and happy in the thought that he's able to stand up and testify that his labors have been awarded. Over a half million of satisfied customers ean testify to- "Kahn's Good Klothes." And these same good clothes— same quality—honest materials and honest workmanship—"Mose" gives you today—the same as he always did—at the lowest prices.
