Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Revision of the State Constitution, Vol. 2: A Collection of Papers, Addresses and Discussions Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Academy of Political Science in the City of New York, November 19 and 20, 1914; City and County Government Regulation of Economic and Social Conditions The brief in the long-standing case of the People of the City v. The Legislature of the State of New York has, during the last fifty years, been repeatedly filed and argued at the bar of public opinion in this state. It was first formally filed in behalf of the cities of the entire state by members of the ill-fated convention of 1867-8. It was re-filed in like behalf before the constitutional commission of 1873; again by the Evarts commission in 1877; again by the Fassett committee in 1891; and once again in the convention of 1894. It has found expression in numerous messages and vetoes of successive governors. And this is not to mention the countless recorded pleas and protests that have gone up from the corporate authorities and civic organizations of specific cities all over the state. In the case of New York city such protests have been registered, with a regularity as persistent as it has been futile, since the years preceding the Civil War when Jacob Westervelt, Fernando Wood, and Daniel Tieman were sitting in the chief executive office of the city. In discussing the problem of home rule at this late day I take it that certain general propositions are so fairly established as to require little if any argument.
