New State Program Aims at Savings Through Bureau Study
Virginia launches a broad effort to reduce costs by a thorough study of state government operations. Authorized by the 1926 Assembly, the Bureau of Municipal Research completed a comprehensive, impartial report. The document, described as a textbook on efficient state government, was presented to a Virginians committee chaired by William T. Reed.

Reorganization of Virginia Government and Finances
The Reed Commission reforms led to abolition of multiple offices and boards in Virginia. Consolidations created the Department of Conservation and Development and merged various commissions. Budget revision and tax simplification promise significant yearly savings, with total projected around $900,000, complemented by labor efficiency and jail-work road programs.
