In a recent meeting in Richmond where the supervisors of the counties of Virginia assembled to discuss the problems of the State, Ex-governc~.Darden spoke my convictions. In substance he said that the counties should wake up and recover some of the powers they had lost to the state and the nation. Everybody knows that our counties have become as speakeasies for the higher powers. Everybody knows that our county governments are archaic, obsolete and In- efficient, to say nothing about being top heavy and expensive. The present math!ncr of Chesterfield County is not representative of the people of the county because its yields to po~ers above it at Richmond and hence does not and cannot truly heed the voice cf the people. It is too far out of reach of the masses and is therefore in a very definite ~ sense a lo~d to carry and is not cn elastic and pliable instrument in the hands of the people to give to th~ people a practical, Useful, and economical government such as our modern times require and which would meet the specifications of the best students of government in our universities, schools., and as constantly heard from ~l~bllc platforms, town halls and ot~her progressive outlets of public information." ~. Coyne then offered the following resolution - "BE IT RESOLVED - That the Board of Supervisors of Chesterfield County, Virgin! request the Honorable J. garland Jefferson, Jr., Judge of Circuit Court of said County to order theft a referendum be held in the County of Chesterfield, Virginia, on the single question as to whether the County shall adopt that form of county organization and ~over~ment designated as the "County ~anager Form" and that a special election be hel~ to take the sense of the qualified voters of the County of Chesterfield, Virginia, on said question, all as provided in Chapted 109D, para- graph 2773 (109D, paragraphs 2773 (24) ~to ?73 (79A), inclusive of the Code of Virginia as amended."
