HEALTH STUDY Mooresvillle Women Are Given Keys For Better City Yardsticks by which Moores rtlle's local government may be tested by the ' average cit'.zen we're offered for the first time today by the National Consum ers Tax Commission of which Mrs. Loy Thompson is Moores ville chairman. With municipal betterment as its 1940 goal the commission has suggested to its units ir. 5,000 towns throughout the country means for making friendly and helpful examin ations of local government ser vices and the town's financial cendition. The women are urged to ask the police whether at least 80 per cent of murders, 40 per cent of robberies, 30 per cent of burglaries and 20 per cent of auto thefts have been cleared by the arrest of the criminal. In the financial department, the women have been told that debt charges in excess of 25 per cent of the annual budget is an unhealthy sign. They are advised to look -up the town's financial rating and to check whether the town lives up to its budget and whether the budget is based on actual tax receipts and not on estimates. Other significant questions are: Does the town have a cen tralized purchasing system? Aire employees appointed on the merit basis? Are public Im provements carefully planned? What is the fire defense rating and what steps are taken for fire prevention? Does the city take pains to reveal Its expen ditures and costs in terms readily understandable by tne average citizen. Mrs. Melville Mucklestone, of Chicago, president of the non profit, i-on-patrtisan commiss ion, declares that "through the alert and intelligent interest of women in their local gov vernmer.ts we hope not only to find better ways of cutting the tax load, but of helping to de velop means of bettering the cities in which we live and raise our amil:e."
