Younjr's View Attorney Young told Rotarians that Prof. Grow had given a very well planned promotional speech for the charter plan and suggested that perhaps he had "received his material from the International City Managers Association, which he said had done everything from advertising to placing text books in colleges in order to promote their cause. "In our short history as a nation, we have attained a society with the greatest freedom ever known," Mr. Young said. "This has been done for the most part with our present form of government," he continued. The city attorney cited a survey taken by him of cities now using the city manager form. He said that he found the per capita cost in the general fund un der city manager was $45 while In Provo under the commission system, the per capita cost in the general fund is $25. Mr. Young said he believed that the trend in areas where the city manager had been em ployed was toward lack of interest by the" voters.
