In the midst of controversies over the part that counties should play in modem government, studies are needed of county governments as they function today. This is intended to be such a study.
Material for this study was obtained during a month’s residence in the county at which time I talked with citizens of the county, including all of the present county officials I am, therefore, indebted to the many people of the county who freely gave their time and knowledge in an effort to assist me portray the functions of the county government in an accurate manner.
