COLLIN CO .SoNorwok' James Connell. Democratic nomi- noo for representative to the Gen- ersl Assembly. in the following let- ter to "it! editor of The Sentinel do. lends the district form of local gov- ernment. now in force here under provisions of the charter of consoli- dation. and opposes the sale of the districts‘ utilities to the city as advocated by the Charter Revision committee: Oct. 2i. 1920. Editor. The Evening Sentinel. The Charter Revision committee is making arrangements for sub- mission to a. referendum vote at the coming election. the proposal that the First. Second and Third dis- tricts shall sell their pubUc utilities such as water works. electric welks. The Green. parks. libraries. and whatever other properties that the respective districts may own. to the City of Norwalk. May I have the opportunity of explaining the proposal and the sit- uation as I understand it? This proposal has grown out of tho idea that consolidation in Nor- walk is not real; that it is not con- solidation at all. except in name: and that the various district govern- ments—governments in themselves ——stand in the way of what is call- crl real consolidation. Further. that those local units within the union of districts or the city. hamp- er and obstruct progress because of sectional differences. intcrcsts. Jeal- ousy. and so on. Granting. for the sake of argu- mom. that the supposition is true. and that it can be realized. I ask the question: Would it change lilo atti- tude or mind of the people of the respective districts—anything dif- ferent from what it is at present?[ It is the nt‘iiudc and mind of tllo' people. the expressed attitude and. mind. that crcltc and carry to real- izntion the principles of better gov- ernment; not the form of govern- ment which molds the attitudes and . minds of the people. Governments and government are created. develop and function by the cxpresscd will of the people-mol- \u‘tllstnpdlng Mussolini to the con- trary. Our government unis the outgrowth of the attitude and mind of the people of the Revolutionary period. The republic did not pro- cede the pcoplc~tho people estab- lished and maintain the republic. Norwulk's form of city govern- ment is quite similar to the nation- al government: the districts cor- responding to the states, and the union of the districts comprising the city. The city charter corresponds with the Conflflltlon. The various departments are, in a sense. quite similar; and likewise the district. serve as checks and balance Speaking of checks and bnlnllce.. we have not gone quite so for us the federal government, but on the whole the checks and balance principle or features are here. but it is a little diillcult at times to bring them into play. The founders of our government built hotter than they know. and I am in turn compelled to pay a like tribute to those who drafted the Charter of Norwalk. Like the Constitution. when adopted. it was not perfect. At that time it was the best that could be secured and agreed upon. The attempt to abol- ish slavery by constitutional author- ity failed at the time of drafting the Constitution. but it who amend- od. Likewise our Charter needs some amending. Now. I think the real purpose and end sought in Choc-tor Revision is to abolish the districts and con- tralize government. It is as revo- lutionary-rand identical in principle —-as if we were to suggest abolishi ing the states of the Union. and the districts and sub-divisions within the Stntes. It has been soil; that Norwalk stands alone. I agree. but msintain that so for as form or structure of municipal government is concerned we are at the front or leading the procession. rather than- tagging along at the rear as some would havo us believe. Let mo remind you that for many years the United ‘ States of America stood alone—and 'i in many respects is still alone. We know too. that the greatest choracfi tor in history stood alone. Let us no proud of the fact. If we are right. then stand on the principle or principles. regardless of the whims of those who are carried about by every will-o‘-the-wisp breeze that comes along.

Which styles are no to follow? t‘ity government is the most im- perfect of all forms of government. There are many reasons for this. but in thil "Items I shall cite only those reasons which are applicable ‘hcro at this tiny. First and foremost. an equal rate of tu‘tion throuhout the enuro1 city. without regard to benefits. or the needs or desires of those stfect. ed.

Oventunliy to com solidato all the districts. The second rcuofr'ls the great cost of city government. The third'is the apportionment or end to which funds are used. This is a question of,.tho ages and has baffled the genius of man. The point I wish to make is that if education is the way out of .tbe 'many prob- lems which coutront the individual and society. and which the individu- al and society must meet and solve. then education is one of the highest and most essential lflull‘ of govern- men! la n. following letter I shall dis- cuss this proposal further. and with particular reference to the public utilities; the probable gain as well as the probable loss in the conver. sion of ownership and management from the districts to the city. The big question or “if" in the whole proposition is, "what will the 0in do with the South Norwnlk cicctric plant?" JOSEPH CONNELL WESTPORT liaipli Sacco. \i‘estpcrt cor- respondent. tel.
