The Campus and the State
Higher Education and Training for Administrative Careers
E DUCATION for public administration is best approached in its broadest context. Higher education in any of its manifestations cannot be properly considered apart from the social climate. Conversely, one of education's responsibilities is to help the social order overcome its shortcomings. In this reciprocity, education for public administration is no exception. In fact, the relationship between education and social progress is brought into sharp…
Staffing Democracy's Top Side
is best to abjure the quarrel and concede the element of truth in the rhyme. Our democratic republic is threatened, as are all forms of government, by the seemingly inevitable Polybian cycle wherein an inherent weakness of one form of government causes transition to another: monarchies become tyrannies and are succeeded by aristocracies, which, in turn, become oligarchies, ad infinitum. A Biblical lifetime ago Woodrow Wilson declared, It is getti…

Foreign and Comparative Government
Preparation of the Local Budget
The old saws, “money makes the mare go” and “he who pays the piper calls the tune,” make for awareness of the central importance of budgeting in government. While these expressions indicate the possibility of a measure of general understanding of public budgeting, they also are indicative of the ease with which superficiality and misconceptions may develop in this field. A public budget, one authority has rightly declared “... is not what most pe…
State Legislative Reorganization
While much attention has been given to the efforts of Congress to improve itself, the activities of the state legislatures which have sought improvements as diligently, incidentally fulfilling their laboratory function, have gone virtually unnoticed. Twenty-eight states have given consideration to the renovation of the law-making branch. Comprehensive studies were made in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and in a more limited manner in California. New…
Pedagogy for Administrators
Steps Toward Electoral Reform in Great Britain
Congressional Self-Improvement
The complaint about Congress which has been more or less chronic in this country's history became acute during the 77th Congress (1941-42). While some of the condemnation was abusive, personal, and partisan, much of it was a frank recognition of existing weaknesses emphasized by present responsibilities. Intelligent response to this criticism both inside and outside of Congress resulted in constructive suggestions intended to restore the represen…
Government of “Rurban” Areas
Michigan has a metropolitan problem, but by no means confined to the one area of Detroit, commonly thought of as Michigan's only metropolitan region. Other Michigan cities also have “growing pains” as their populations sprawl beyond their formal boundaries. The Motor City continues to suffer from this ailment, but the disease has taken a new form. Not only are the urbanites moving to the suburbs, but the suburbanites are moving to the rural secti…
Willow Run Produces Bombers and Intergovernmental Problems
Wings over Europe and the Far East are being spread from what was until last year mere Midwestern field and stream—Willow Run, now the site of the world's largest and most revolutionary bomber plant. Air supremacy for the United Nations may rest upon Henry Ford's adaptation of assembly-line methods from autos to airplanes. B-24 bombers now being flown from the hangars at the bomber plant are casting their shadows over the countryside round about.…
Permanent Advisory Committees to the British Government Departments
A significant development in British government since the turn of the century is the permanent advisory committees to the British executive departments. Writing in 1926, Professor John A. Fairlie stated: “Detailed information as to the operation of such advisory committees is not available; but the multiplication of such bodies in recent years is an indication that they have been found useful.” At the time when this statement was written, there w…
