following

of
discussion
last

:at
the
annual
meeting
of
the
Prince

Ratepayers'
Associ
ation.
Finally,
a
resolution
was
passed
calling
for

of
a
special
committee
to
study
the
city

form
of
municipal
covprnmpnt
tho

Imlttee
to
report
back
to
another
'general
meeting
when
It
would
be
decided
about
recommending
to
the
provincial
government
the
form
which
the
civic
government
might
take.
This
special
commit
tee
was
named
to
consist
of
R.
E.
Mortimer,
Ben
Dalgarno
and
Robert
Gordon.
The
choice
evi
dently
lies
between
a
return
to
the
former
old
form
of
mayor'
and
aldermen
or
some
sort
of
a
commission
consisting
of
a
central
elective
body
which
would
decide
on
general
policy
with
a
manager
who
would
carry
on
the
administration.
The
election
of
officers
for
the
ensuing
year
resulted
as
follows:
President,
Robert
M:Kay.
Vice-President,
R.
E.
Mortimer.
Secretary-Treasurer,
Mrs.
Norah

Robert

At
the
opening
of
the
meeting
correspondence
which
had
passed
between
the
association
and
the
provincial
government
regarding
the
future
form
of
civic
adminis
tration
was
read.
From
this
It
seemed
evident
that
the
govern
ment
was
disposed
to
favor
a
return
to
the
straight
mayor
and
council
rather
than
to
grant
a
special
charter
which
would
be
necessary
under
a
city
managership
plan.
The
government
had
failed
to
bring
ln
enabling
legislature
to
provide
for
a
special
char
ter
here.
Theo
Coll
art
thought
the
besj
thing
to
do
would
be
to
proceed
with
the
election
of

and
aldermen,
putting

would

th

Ratepayers'
Association,
rather
than
the
Chamber
of

or
