Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Powers of Municipalities A Discussion The work done by the Committee of Ten of the National Municipal League and its "Report on Municipal Program" entitles the Committee and the League to warm praise and thanks from every student of municipal subjects and sincere worker for the improvement of American civilization. The progressive development of civilization is dependent upon the morality and prosperity of the municipal homes of the people. From these centers of thought and concentrated energy issue the intellectual and economic forces that form and direct the public opinion and policy of the nation and of the world. No truths are clearer than those to the careful student of the influence of legislative and administrative government upon the welfare of the people. Civilized government is an expression of the morality and intelligence of a people ruled by the freely declared will of a majority. It can not be as good as those enjoying the highest development of morality and intelligence wish, but it is a great deal better than those suffering from an imperfectly developed moral and intellectual life are prepared to voluntarily obey. The problem of improving government must be solved by rightly teaching correct underlying principles and inducing a majority to demand their practical application in legislation and administration. Correct education must precede correct legislation. The justice of judgments rendered according to law can not be more just than the law. An honest people can not do right if they are misinformed. The justice of the laws they demand and enact is not determined by honest intentions, but by honest intelligence.
