Financial problems in large towns. All large towns the world over have to meet a major challenge, ie. management. Resources are limited owing to the need for restraint in distracting compulsory means from the economy through taxation in order not to jeopardize job creation. This requires the organisation of management along strict, stringent, and economical lines. The author proposes a model on the basis of the French example with the following main features : 1) outside auditing to protect public finance ; 2) advanced interrelations between State and townships to develop the responsibilities of each ; 3) the development of a municipal management.
