To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— It is the business of a chief executive to represent his area of government in its political and corporate character. He, as an individual, speaks for the political entity of which he is the executive. He announces the policies of his government. He con- ducts diplomatic relations. He promulgates the law; and in a word he is the voice of his government. The President of the United States, the governors of the various states, and the mayors of cities, are all chief executives in this sense. Th...ey are the individuals who personally represent their governments, and it is through them that these governments hold communication with the rest of the world. 2. To Execute the Law. — Another elementary function of a chief executive is to see to it that the people within his 136 THE CLERICAL OFFICES 137 jurisdiction obey the law. He executes the law. Thus he is expected to see to it that the ^vill of the law-making power is fulfilled. Obviously this is a most elementary function, be it exercised by an aboriginal chieftain or the President of the United States; and in the fundamental aspects their duties are no different.
