Sinopsis

Excerpt from County Administration: A Study Based Upon a Survey of County Government in the State of Delaware

County government in Delaware is of the same type as that prevailing in the southern and far western states. In other words, there is no local subdivision of the county which enjovs large powers. It is true, the hundred still remains as a reminiscence of a polit ical subdivision of the county that once had vitality, but to-day it serves no purpose except that of an election district and a convenient geographical unit. That hybrid form of the township and the county government which characterizes many of the northern and middle western states does not exist in Dela ware. Therefore it is relatively simple to sketch an outline of county organization as it now stands in Delaware.

Excerpt from County Administration: A Study Based Upon a Survey of County Government in the State of Delaware

The author has several debts to acknowledge. Assistance received from Dr. C. E. McCombs and Mr. W. A. Bassett of the staff of the New York Bureau of Municipal Research has been invaluable in the preparation of chapters V and VI. Dr. Charles A. Beard, Director of the Bureau of Municipal Research, has been a most helpful and constructive critic. The acute criticisms of Professor Howard Lee McBain of Columbia University have resulted in alterations which have greatly improved the work. Finally the author wishes to express his appreciation of the uniformly courteous treatment he received at the hands of county officials in Delaware.
