Excerpt from Applied City Government: The Principles and Practice, of City Charter Making

In our colleges, in the same way, there Is need for constructive material. College-trained men will in evitably be looked to as leaders in any campaign for charter legislation in their communities. It is not enough that they should be trained in the theory of good city government and be able to criticize provisions in existing charters. They must be trained to put their knowledge into practical effect by actually casting it into proper form for adoption. For such training there must be some material available for illustration. General descriptive treatises on city government do not furnish such material, and the charter material avail able is not only for the most part illustrative simply of what Should not be said in a charter, but fails also, of course, to give any critical discussion of the points involved in the various provisions inserted in the charters.
