WILLIAMSBURG SCHOOL
BOND ISSUE OPPOSED;
REMONSTRANCE FILED

Remonstrance against the issuance
of bonds for the construction of the
proposed new high and grade school

ten of these who will be notified Of
the hearing are Frank c. Williams,
William A. Boyd, Harold Thorp, Os-
sian w. Hartup, M. H. Lacey, c. e.
Boyd, Frank L. Lemmons, Edward R.

building A hearing will be held be-
fore a member of the state tax board
probably the second week in Septem-

paired to meet requirements.

posed building is built it will necessi-
tate another building soon to accom-
modate the pupils. The present build.
ing conditions are also pointed out as
being bad and states that this is not

The success or failure of any city
administration depends largely on the
men selected to fill the numerous ap-
pointive positions which fall to the
lot of the mayor when he assumes
the duties of office.
Selection of efficient men who have
some ability to fill the offices as.
signed to them, and not professional
political "iob hunters" is one of the
highest aims any group in control OF
city affairs could hope to accomplish
Voters should weigh carefully the
possible selections that candidates for
the mayors office would make in pick
ing the heads of the various city de
partments. The backing that is be
ing given each mayoralty aspirant is
a good indication of the kind of men
that will be put in office by them.
important Places
Probably the most important ap
pointees of the mayor are the mem
bers of the board of public works
They are the ones chiefly responsible
for the spending of the taxpayers
money.
1t is the board of works that passes
on all bills. They investigate all com
plants of a general character made
against the administration of the city
They are supposed to be kind OF
go-between for the mayor and council
Their powers are limited because
of their responsibility to the mayor
who can bring pressure to bear or
them strong enough to make then
comply with his requests or resign, il
he so desires. 1t is very seldom thai
a member of the board resigns, how
ever.
Have Power
The power that might be exerted by
a board made up of men of good bust
ness judgment and executive ability i.
easily recognized.
Superintndent of the municipal ligh
plant is another important post fol
the mayor to fill. The debates tha1
have been current in Richmond dur
| ing the past few years have made citi
zens here recognize the necessity o
securing man familiar with al
phases of the management of corpor
alton such as the city plant.
The controllers position is another
post demanding man with ability t
sense the financial problems that fact

money paid out by the city puts hin

"As to the future outlook for bus
ness" said R. A. Campbell, dealing
in commodities and studying econopl-
ic conditions, brings me to this con
clusion: We have a buyers strike,
absolutely. The public has ceased
buying. claiming there is too great an
initiation in prices. We enjoyed this
initiation during the war period, and
for some time after But we now
know that world conditions have con-
stantly been changing. and we are
once more in competition with for
eign nations, and that the United
States must compete with all of them
in the worlds markets
ut is simply a case of reduction.
Reduce the taxes on real estate 35
per cent; tax bonds and the stocks
that the public is buying and locking
up in safety deposit vaults to escape
taxation. Open the way to bring this
money out of hiding and get it into
circulation in trade channels. Thi,
will give labor employment and de-
velop conditions leading US back to
formal times and to normal price lev
