Both proposed a gradual reduction of the payroll through a "no-fire, no-hire" policy, although observers say that Powers might settle for a "no-fire, limited-hire" program. As employees drop from the payroll through death or resignation, the job simply will not be refilled. Obviously, exceptions are necessary: for indispensable officials, and for city departments that already operate on a relatively tight budget...
Ardent Amateurs. If Stevenson is content to wait, legions of his admirers are willing to put their votes-and their campaign money-into cold storage, and wait too. "His followers woo him," says a top Utah politician. "He doesn't woo his followers. You can't say that about any of the others."

He points to his record: 1956 auto production zero, this year 170,000; 1956 oil production 5,000 bbl. a day, this year...
Still, Bradley says the freedom allowed instructors--"they can teach their courses any way they see fit"--can be bad, as well as good. "If there were more supervision, shabby work would be reduced." To some, this may seem contradictory. Further-more, "If I want to say something radical, I don't have to worry," says Bradley. He conveys the impression of a University based, from the President down to the students, on individualism and responsibility. This view is the one the administration and faculty put forth to the world, and it is probably the one they believe. Yet some...
