In West Orange, the city government authorized
the expenditure of $5,200 for a new fire truck and
other fire fighting equipment. Men of the community
followed this action tips immediately by meeting to

Despite the Democratic National Convention n
Chicago this week and the many hours most of us
spent watching the proceedings on television, a lot of
things got done around Orange County.
Most important of these for the City of Orange, ot
coursecwas th# inauguration of a mavor. a new council-
man aid, holdover commissioner. This gave the city
its firt Commission wholly dedicated to businesslike
operation of its government under the cpuncil-manager
plan
The new mayor Herb Meeks, already had. prepare 1
imself for the joo with a study of municipal operations
- that had been going on ever since hi. election He went
right to work and we van soon expect from him some
concrete recommendations for improvements in the city
government. ~
The new cour «r.. Lawrence Smaihall, also plow-
< ed right into i .J job. Jack Bonnin, the holdover com-
fissionef; kept up t: e hard work that has been hi prac-
•ice ever since he joined the Council.
First big job of the new Commission is to put into
final form a budget that is the biggest ever proposed
for the city Despite its size, this budget contemplates
a five-cent reduction in the tax rate, the second such
cut for Orange in the two years the council-manager
system has been in operation.
At the county government level, Commissioers
Court had a bus; week and made some gains. One of
these was agreement to-be governed by a proposed sec-
ond Democratic primary electioh straw vote on the ques -
tion of purchasing voting machines Another ws the
• acquisition of additional right-of-waw’for Lutcher drive.
