County Rule Ballot Plan Stirs Protest
County Supervisors face strong opposition to a plan by a citizens committee to direct a referendum on a director form of government. The report may be delayed to August as opinions differ and not all members may attend. Continued debate centers on copying from the Governmental Research Bureau and calls by Syracuse groups for a November ballot. Local agrarian groups oppose due to insufficient time for voter study.
