McVICKER SPEAKS TO SQUAD Is Guest of the Lincoln Commercial Club at Banquet Last Evening Gives 8quad at University Half-Hour Talk. At four o'clock yoBtorday afternoon Mr. John McVlcker, tho best known momljoi' of tho commission In chargo of tho govornmont of Dob Molnos, spoko to tho dobatlng squad of tho uni versity on tho commission form of city government. Mr. McVlckors was In tho city us tho principal spoakor at tho banquet glvon last evening by tho Com mercial club of Lincoln. Owing to tho many domandH upon his tlmo It was ImpoBsihlo for him to give tho squad more than a half hour, but In this tlmo he dlscussod the conditions which exist in Dos Molnos and the work that has boon done thus far by tho commission. A New Experiment. Tho commission form of government as It Is now In oporution in Dob Molnos is a now experiment In this part of the country. It Iiub boon tried In sevoral Toxns cities for a longer porlod of tlmo and tho oxporlenco there lod to tho adoption of the now govornmont by Dos MolnoB. Mr. McVlckors declared that as ho had soon tho old form of government In operation for many yoni'H, ho folt fully competent to Judgo of tho merits of tho now form as shown by tho oxporlonco of Dos Moines. In opening his talk Mr. McVlckors doclarod that ho hesitated to speak before so much learning although ho declared that It had been his oxporl onco that the main opposition to tho commission form of government comes from college professors and from couucllmeu. He accounted for the op position of tho college professors on tho ground that they had boon teach ing certain theories to tholr students for so long a tlmo that thoy had come to bellovo that no plan could bo n suc cess which did not conform to these theories. Ho hardly knew how to ac count for tho opposition of councllmen, for ho had pointed out to them that there wero tho same number of olllces to bo filled under ono form of govorn mont as under another. Possible in Lincoln. Tho question as to whothor or not a commission form of government Is de sirable is at the present time boing debated in Lincoln, and it is entirely posslblo that tho now form of govern ment may be adoptod here. Tho es sential dlfforenco of tho plan from tho present system which Involves a coun cil and" mayor Is the fact that practic ally all powers of municipal govern ment are placed In the hands of n com misBlon of live men, who thus havo both legislative and executive powers.
