President Eliot will speak at the dinner of the Economic Club of Boston to be held at the American House, Boston, at 6 o'clock this evening. The other speakers will be J. D. Long '57, H. N. Shepard '71, H. S. Chase, J. F. Tobin, and F. P. Fish '75.
The subject which will come up for discussion is the report of a committee appointed by the Economic Club to study the condition of the city government of Boston and investigate the feasibility of instituting a government by commission. The report alleges that entrusting such large powers to one man as has been the case with the mayor of Boston, has not proved wise and expedient in practice, and recommends that the executive branch of the city government be vested in a council of five persons. President Eliot is a member of the committee chosen and will be the first speaker.
