WITH OPPONENT
BELIEVES THAT EACH MEMBER or
ADMINISTRATIVE BOARD SHOULD
HEAD DEPARTMENT.
HAS TRIED SY ST. NJ
CANDIDATE OUTLINES TO BU sIsEss
MEMS CLUB THE PLATFORM
UPoN WHICH HE STANDS
FOR ELECTION,

In juxtaposition TO all the admints-
lkrative board candidates who have
expressed themselves on the point,
Charles F. Taylor yesterday declared
himself in favor Of the division OF
respons! bility-in other words that
each member OF the board should be
at the head OF department of the
municipal sovernment-police. fire,
streets, and no on--and individually
responsible or that department. ON
matters Of general interest the board
should act as a unit. Mr.. Taylor de-
ciared that he. as president of the
board Of fire commissioners, had tried
this individual responsibility system in
the fire department and il had worked
successfully.
The candidate announced this and
other planks of his platform to the
Business Mems club At the luncheon
yesterday. He utilized the full ten
minutes of the allotted time and was
given a careful hearing by one Of the
largest audiences that has yet attend
ed one OF this series of talks.
No Short Term Bonds.
Mr.. Taylor expressed himself very
kmphatically on the matter OF bond
issues. He described short-term bonds,
believing that there should be no is
sue for less than fifty years. with the
privilege OF retiring them in thirty or
forty years. Let the present genera
tion, he said. pay the interest on all
permanent improvements, and the
coming generation take up the princi-
pal Mr. Taylor also has some IDEAS
concerning the municipal building
which is to replace the old Ford's
hotel. That building, he said, would
be incomplete without a fine audi
torium and a dig public library.
AS to his claim npon the suffrage
of the people the candidate pointed 10
his successful administration Of the
ctty's fire department he having serv-
ed four successive terms as president
OF the board. and also his successor
In private business. He had conduct
ed grocery store for forty years. a
record which had not been ecualied
by any living virgtnian.
There will be no address this after
noon, the club observing the usual
Saturday intermission. Monday after
noon at o'clock Robert Whittet, Jr..
will plead his case and Tuesday after
noon william II. Zimmerman will

Mr. Noting was with the Bank or
Richmond when that institution was

of Virginia. and at that time entered
the service Of the First National bank
and has been with that bank since.
IL Is presumed that the consolidation
of the First National with this Ma

effect August 2sth, is the cause OF the
severance OF the relations. and II IS
said that other resignation from both
institutions will follow before the
merger is formally effected.
