Excerpt from Proceedings of the New York Conference for Good City Government and the Eleventh Annual Meeting of the National Municipal League: Held April 25, 26, 27 and 28, 1905 at New York
This volume of Proceedings contains the papers completing the work of the Committee on Nomination Reform and of the Committee on Instruction in Municipal Government in American Educational Institutions. Of the importance of these two lines of inquiry there is no question; the value of the discussions and the conclusions and recommendations is to be determined by the future. Already they have served one of the prime purposes of their institution: they have created a wider and more intelligent interest in the subjects on the part of those who are in a position to introduce improvements.
The papers prepared for and by the Committee on Nomination Reform are being separately edited with the expectation that they will be shortly published in a volume similar to "The Municipal Program." Those to be found in this volume are specially noteworthy, in that they summarize and comment upon the results of conspicuous and typical experiments.
The report of the Committee on Instruction was prepared by trained educators, who have brought to their task not only the results of their own careful observations, but an enlightened public spirit and a deep-seated desire to promote the objects of their appointment.
This report has been referred to a new Committee, authorized and to be appointed, which is to have for its object the coordination of the various efforts now making to furnish civic and municipal instruction in the elementary and secondary schools of the country.
