Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Advance: Extracts From Papers on Various Municipal Services Read at the First International Municipal Congress and Exposition, Chicago, September 18-30, 1911 The Congress was opened Sept. 18 by addresses by Mayor Carter H. Harrison, of Chicago; Mayor John F. Fitzgerald, of Boston; Harry A. Wheeler, president of The Chicago Association of Commerce; John Macvicar, of Des Moines, commissioner general of the Exposition; John M. Ewen, chairman of the Congress and Exposition. There was read to the Congress a letter of greeting from the Rt. Hon. T. Vezey Strong, lord mayor of the city of London, and the Congress was briefly addressed in Spanish by Rogelio E. Pardo, delegate from Costa Rica. In his letter the lord mayor said: I would say, as representing a very ancient city, of which I am the 722d mayor or lord mayor, that we trust the Congress and Exposition will have far-reaching and useful results, and that we shall watch its progress with deep interest, feeling a certainty that, old though we may be, we have yet much to learn in very many directions in which we can be of benefit to the community around us. If, as is highly probable, your Congress gives us a lead in these matters, we shall neither be too proud nor too reserved to express our obligation and gratitude. The Congress was so organized in sessions as to group related interests for the discussion of fixed topics. The submission of carefully prepared papers was the rule of procedure. Herewith follow, in formal style and more or less condensed to promote their availability, the papers and debates of the Congress. All can be read with much profit by laymen as well as by munici pal specialists. A feature of the program of the Congress was stereopticon talks on foreign municipal services by William Hudson Harper, who had been com missioned to visit Great Britain and Europe for this purpose by The Chicago Association of Commerce. Wm. Reiss, vice-president of Local Division and Chairman of Local (convention Bureau) Committee. The Chicago Association of Commerce.

Download or read book Term Limits and the Modern Era of Municipal Reform written by Douglas Cantor and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Term limits enjoy broad popularity among Americans, yet scholarly literature has omitted two important questions from the study of municipal reform: Why are term limits so popular, and what are the causes of movements for term limits? In this book, Douglas Cantor exposes the causes of term limits at the local level of government to shed light on how and why the movement to adopt term limits came to exist. Cantor begins his analysis by providing a history of term limits, beginning with classical debates in Greek philosophy. He describes the benefits of studying the causes of term limits and how term limits are a direct manifestation of older values rooted in the American traditions of municipal reform. Part II examines 20 different municipalities across the continental United States that experienced a movement to implement term limits through a political campaign, voter initiative, or council-led charter amendment. Written to a common template and examining each case through the lens of the reform impulse, Cantor argues that the institutional lineage of the Progressives, namely council-manager governments, at-large elections, and nonpartisanship, is largely responsible for movements to implement term limits somewhere in the United States in almost every election. Terms Limits and the Modern Era of Municipal Reform brings a new dimension to the Progressive era, championing the study of local politics and its importance to understanding American politics.
