No. A~69. ~HE~EAM, Council wishes to put i~self on record in the me_tter of the costs of the office of Attorney far the Commonwealth, Be it resolved - Under provisions of the Compensation Act, the Board created thereunder fixed the salaries of Commonwealth's Attorney for the City of Roanoke at $5,000.00 per annum, awarded a salary.of SE,OOO.O0 per annum for an Assistant Commonwealth's At- tormey, and Si,E00.00 for clerical assistance, and SBO0.O0 for incidental expenses. The City Council of Roanoke by appropriate resolution acquiesced in the award of the Compensation Board pertaining to salary fixed for the Commonwealth's At~orne but excepted to the Board's decisio~ creating the post of Assist~xt Comm~nwealtk's Attorney and fixing a salary therefor on the grounds that an Assistant is not au- thorized by law, unnecessary, and is still of the opinion that no statute or warranl of law exists to create the position of Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney, or re- Quire the appropriation from any funds of the municipality to compensate an officer not authorized by law. The Compensation Act permits appeal from decision of the Board to be heard in the Hustings Court having Ju~isdhction, and result of such appeal heard October and decision and order of the Court makes the following award: Commonwealth's Attorney $~,~0.00 As sist ant 5,600.00 Ste nogr apher-Se cr et ary 1,5~0.00 Inci den+~a ls 250.00 S It is a fact that Assista~.t Attorney General Gardner Tyler, representing the Compensation Board in this hearing, stated to the Court that the Board was not con- cerned particularly with respect to compensation for an Assistant and took the posi- tion that this was purely a local Question. The Council requested the Compensation Board to reduce the expenses of the Com- monwealth Attorney's DePartment partly upon the grounds that 'repeal of prohibition The records show the follow- had substantially reduced the work of this department. ing: Ne. cases handled first 6 months 1933 No. cases handled first 6 months 1934 No. cases handled July 1, 1933 to Sept. ~0, 1933 No. cases hsndled July 1, 19~A to Sept. ~0, 19~A Misdemeanor Felony ' 33? - 167 255 112 192 80 105 49 The above statistical record shows that reduction in cases handled for compara- ble periods amounts to 27% and 40%, respectively. As a matter of record, it is a fact that with exception of Richmond, a city of three times Roanoke's population, the salary award for Roanoke was the highest in th, State, and shows the following comparison with the City of Norfolk, twice the popu- lation of Roanoke, nor does the City's financial condition when properly considered justify this disparity in cost as betwee~ Ro~uoke and Norfolk: Nor folk Commonwealth ' s Attorney $5,500. Assist ant 2,000. Roanoke $ 5,850. 3,600. In addition, $1,350. is allowed at Roanoke for stenographer, whereas at Norfolk the Commonwealth,s Attorney de~ays this expense out of his salary. It is the opinion of the Council of Roanoke that consideration should have been given to salaries and office expenses in other municipalities throughout the State to arrive at a relative and COml~rable basis. It is t.he sense of the Council of the City of Roanoke that there is still no warrant of law creating the post of Assistant Com~nwealth,s Attorney, and that the Judgment Gf the Hustings Court in allowing compmmsation for such an officer is ultra wires and absolutely void, and for these reasons de~lines to appropriate from munici- pal revenues any funds for payment of such unauthorized Assistant.

APPROVED Pres i dent IN THE COUNCIL FOR THE CITY 0F ROANOKE, VIRGI]~A, The 5th day of January, 1936. No. 4704. A ~SOLUTION suggesting certain revisions and amendments to the Charter of ;he City of Roanoke for the information of representatives in the Virginia Legislatu: ~rom the Roanoke District. b~REAS, in promoting the best interest of the people of the City of Roanoke, ~or their general welfare, and more efficient a~m~nistration of municipal government [t appesrs to the Council of said City that certain revisions, amendments, or mpplemental provisions must be embraced in the Charter of Roanoke City to accomplis] ;he purposes as hereinafter more specifically set forth, and WHERE,~, the duly elected representatives of the City of Roanoke to the .pproaching Session of the Virginia Legislature have indicated their purpose to .,ooperate with the Council of this City in presenting to the next General Assembly ,f Virginia appropriate bills for legislative enactment in conconance with the .esires and recommendatiin of City Council, consistent with Constitutional or orporate rights and powersaf the City of Roanoke, and ~,JHER~, the Council of the City of Roanoke in formal session this date, after due deliberation, has concluded that the following legislation, as more specifically enumerated by succeeding paragraphs, is essential to the public interest and general welfare of the City of Roanoke, tG-wit: 1. The City of Roanoke, third largest in the State is clgarly entitled to one Senatorial Representative in the Virginia Assembly and on any proper basis of apportionment a Senatorial District for the 394 Submit that it is eminently in the best interest of this area to separate the 21st Double Floater Senatorial District, which is necessary to accord equality of representation to the counties and the City of Roanoke. £. Repeal of the statute enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia March 29, 1954 affecting electorial and primary procedure only in the Cities of Roanoke and Portsmouth is requested. The constitutionality of this act appears opera to serious question and administration of party affairs in Roanoke should be under no different control or regulation than prevails elsewhere within the State. Ne recommend that Section 46 of the Charter be amended and supplemented to provide a Sinking Fund Commission, composed of the City Auditc~, President of Council, City Treasurer, one, and not more than two free-hold citizens of the City of Roanoke, the latter to be appointed by Council for a term of three years and be ineligible to hold any other public office, whether elective or appointive, during his incumbency That this section be further amended as follows - "There shall be set apart from the resources of the City e sum equal to one and one-half per c~ntum per annum of the aggregate debt not payable within one year, whether contracted heretofore or hereafter." It is the opinion of Council that the best interest of the public can be more adequately served as result of this plan, and it can be clearly-shown that increased contributions to the fund &re necessary to insure retirenent of debt at maturity and avoidance of refunding. operations which penalize the taxpayer. 4. The Council requests repeal of an act approved March 2, 1934, entitled - nan Act to provide for commencing civil actions to be tried by civil and police justices, civil'justices and trial justices by notices of motion, and to repeal an act entitled,"An act to provide for trial of civil cases by a civil and police justice on motion approved March 15, 1924, be, and the sa~e hereby is repealed." Council feels that the statutes approved March 15, 1924, permitting the trial of civil cases by civil and police justices on warrant, and by motion, sh6uld be ~nen~e~ re~muin~ng the 'plaintiff proceeding o~ ~otidn to ~pay'the same fee to the civil and police justice as required of a party pro~eeding by warrant. 5. Council requests that Section 3la of an act entitled an act to provide a new charter for the City of Roanoke, Virginia, be re-enacted and amended to provi.de that "all fees collected by a Bail Commissioner shall be p~aid into t~he City Treasury and the Bail Commissioner shall be paid a salary to be determined by the City Council." This act now fixes a mandatory salary of 75% of all fees collected and it is the opinion of Council that compensation for this office should be left to the discretion and determination ~of Council. 6. The Council requests that existing statutes which c~npels an audit of the accounts and records of the schools of Roanoke annually under direction of the Auditor of Public Accounts or s~meone deputized . by him, be repealed. This is a mandatory requiren~ent not imposed upon other political sub-divisions of the State. The Council is thoroughly in accord and endorses any plan that tins for its purpose periodical audits of accountable offices or officers but it feels that there is no ~oarticular reason to justify this mandatory requirement and re- commends that it be left free to deal with this question in the same manner and under the same conditions existing in othe~ communities. 7. The Council requests that appropriate legislation be enacted to simplify the collection of and accountin~ for the delinquent taxes which have accrued exclusively to the City and in ~hich the State has no proprietary interest. Under existing laws the Clerk of the Courts is held accountable for payment to the City of all monies received from such delinquent tax collections. The Council earnestly recGEnends that existing requirements of the la~ be amended,~ if practicable, to confer authority upon the City of Roauo~e ~o ze~C up and establish by proper ordinance or ordirances, a system for the return ar~l col ~l~ction~of delinquent taxes, which have been segregated to the City for collection. The Council feels that such authority is essential to insure maximum benefit of the segregation plan to the City of Roanoke. Council recon~nends that an act approved ~arch 24, 1932, generally known as the Staples ~ct, providing co~ensation and expenses of offices of the City Sergeant and Clerk of the Courts for the City of Roanoke be revised and amended to authorize the fixation of salaries and appropriation of office expenses by the City Council of Roanoke, including the purchase of all foodstuffs, materials and supplies for maintenance and operation of the City Jail, which should be placed under direction and authority of the City Purchasing Agent. As the revenues and expenses of these two offices are almost wholly local, the Council believes in the interest of economy and administrative efficiency that this revision as outlined is desirable. NOW, T~REFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that a certified copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Honorable Harvey Bo Apperson ami the Honorable Leonard G. Diuse, duly elected members ~f the Senate, and the Honorable Diarion 3. Battle and the Honorable Raye O. Lawson, duly elected mem- bers of 'the House of Delegates, as reflecting the sentim~t and. judgment of Council and BE IT E~RT~R RESOLVED, th~e~ the Council of the City of Roanoke recommends enactment of requisite l~islation for the reason stated, and will extend to its legislative representatives a full measure of cooperation and su~port~o-, to this end.

APPROVED Presi dent 40 IN THE COUNCIL FOR THE CITY OF R02NOKE, VI[~Ii,iIA, The 24th day of January, 1936. No o 4719. A ~SOLUTION opposing the enactment of House Bill Nco 15 proposing to amend ~ection 3518 of the Code of Virginia, and recommending the amending of Section 4970-a of the Code of, Virginia. ~ERmAS, it seems for the best interest of the City of ~oanoke tha~ House Bill ~Oo 15, the purpose and design of which is to materially ~mend Section 3518 of the ~ode of Virginia, be opposed for reasons as hereinafter more specifically set forth ~n communication from the Judge of the Hustings Court of the City of Roanoke, arrl ~tEREAS, in lieu thereof~ that Section 4970-a of the Code of' Virginia be amende, ~nd reenacted as hereinafter set forth in the same communication from the Judge of ;he Hustings Court of the City of Roanoke. THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the fol- lowing communication from the ~Judge of the Hustings Court of the City of Roanoke ~e made a part of this Resolution, and transmitted to the Honorable Harvey B. Appers, ~nd the Honorable Leonard G. Muse, duly elected Members of the Senate, and the ~onorable Marion S. Battle and the Honorable Raye 0° Law~on, duly elected bJembers ~f the House of Delegates, as reflecting the sentiment and judgment of the Council ~f the City of Roanoke. "The Honorable Mayor and Members of Council for the City of Roanoke, Virginia, ~'L~. L. D. James, City Clerk; Roanoke, Virginia. "Gentlemen- "I ~m advised that there has been proposed in the ~eneral Assembly of ~irginia, and referred to the Committee on Courts of Justice, a certain bill designa. ed as House Bill No. 15, the purpose and design of which is to v~aterially amend .ection 3518 of the Code of Virginia, dealing with the appointment by the Court ~f Counsel for indigent prisoners charged with crime. ~I have discussed this proposed legislation, insofar as same would effect ;he City of Roanoke, with a member of your body, and I am follovJing his suggestion in presenting my views to you. "It is perfectly manifest to me that the enactment of~ this bill into law ~ould impose an unfair and unwarranted burden upon the Cities of the Commonwealth. I,however, shall endeavor to confine my discussion to its relation and effect he City of Roanoke. - upon "Section 3518, as it now stands, is not co. uched in mandatory terms but gives he Judge of a Court of record the right to appoint an attorney to defend a poor prisoner, who is ch.a~.ged, with an offense that may be punished by death or by con- tinement in the penitentiary for a period of more than ten years. It. further pro- ~ides that the Judge may direct that the attor-~ so appointed be pa~d out of the ~ity of County Treasury a sum of money not to exceed $25.00. It, therefore, will ~e seen that the law as it now stands makes provision for the defense by counsel of 0ersons charged with the more grave or exceptional crimes, and to be more specific, ]ection 3518 provides for remuneration to the attorney appointed by the Court where ;he accused is charged with murder, rape, robbery by violence, burglary, kidnapping ~r~i the more severe phases of arson. The maximum penalty proscribed for these ;rimes is death. It might be said, therefore, with one or tEo negligible exceptions that Section 3518 only authorizes the Court to raid the public treasury when the accused person must stand trial for his life. "I sm advised by the City Auditor that various attorneys appointed by .the ~ustings Court, pursuant ta the provisions of Section 3518, were paid by the City of Roanoke, for the calendar year of 1935, the sum of #375.00. _ . "Tur.ning~ .now to the proposed amendment (H. B. 15) we find it teemi with ~-nmavory directions. The Court "shall appoin.t an attorney to defend ~e~ver~ ocr person charged with an offense that may be ~m~b~.~ ~ ~+ ..... ~ P- ~a~"x..~en~?a?.y ?or a peri~cxl ot' more' than five ~e~ars". And further, the Court I[' z___._~ m~rec~ ~na~ a sum or money not exceeding $25.00 shall be paid out of the I~rea~s_u_r_.y__~of.t.he c~o?ty, or .city whereLu the offense was committed, to the attorne r ~ ~ppoznoea ~o Gel'cnG SUCh person." Y "If this proposed amendment is enacted into law, then, in 'addztzon to the pretenses, housebreaking, abortion, seduction, abduction, embezzlement, perjury, bribery, bigamy and other crimes not necessary to here mention. The amendment covers practically every conceivable felony and will foist a drain of almos~ in- calculable proportions upon the Treasury of this City.. In housebreaking cases it frequently occurs that the indictment nemes anywhere from one to ten defendants, Assume therefore that the Court is confronted by such circumstances that the law directs that ten separate attorneys be assigned to defend the ten defendants under one such indictment at $25.00 per person. This is not an extreme or imaginary illustration but it is a situation that, in the light of past occuramces, is reasonable to be anticipated. "At this, the January Term of Court, I have had to assign eleven cases to ~ttorneys, only three of which fall within the provisions of Section 3518, Under the proposed amendment all of them would carry the $25.00 fee. Instead of the ~ourt entering orders dd~rectSng the Treasurer to pay out the sum of $?5.00, under the amendment, it would be necessary to direct the Treasurer to pay to the various ~ttorneys appointed the sum of $2?5.00. The most conservative estimate, that I ~an mske at this time is that the amendment, if enacted into law, would cost the ~ity of Roanoke approximately $2,500.00 per year. The maximum cost would be con- trolled entirely by the number of indigent persons indicted for the commission of ~rime. This is an indeterminable factor, which could only be met by the Treasurer · ~onoring the orders .of the Court by payment when the denand for same is made. "Based upon the factors hereinabove set out, it is my conviction that the ~nactmemt of HOuse Bill No. 15, as drafted, would prove a serious detriment to the ~est interests of this City. It would be far better to leave Section 3518 Just as Lt is at present in the Code of Virginia. If Council caneurs in these views, I ?esPectfully request that an appropriate resolution convey the attitude of Council ;o the Roanoke delegation in the General Assembly. "There is, however, another aspect to this situation, which should invite the ~erious consideration of the Council of this City, as well as that of the Legislatur )f Virginia.~ That asPect is this: "E~very man charged With crime is presumed by law to be innocen~ of that charge. ~he burden is on the State ~to establish his guilt, beyond a reasonable doubt, before ve_rdi.ct o.r ju~lgment of guilty is justified. The accused is entitled to his de~r n.?our~ w_m_t.h op.p.or~unity ~an.d mean.s to make a proper dedense before an impartia~ ~rmnuna±. ~nGer ~ne law, iz he is too poor to employ counsel, he is entitled to the I~enefit of counsel to properly martial the facts, invoke the rules of evidence, procedure and law in his behalf and present his cause in an orde:ly, expedious and forecful manner to the tribunal sitting in judgment. It is unfair to saddle this ~esponsibility upon a lawyer, without hope of some remuneration, and require him, · hether or not it is agreeable or suitable for him to do so, to labor tlLrough zany hours of painstaking preparation in order to properly present and advocate the ~ause of a client thrust into his lap. The hatter is a proper subject of 'and should ~e fairly settled by appropriated legislation. "In this connection I desire to call to your att.ention Section ~970a of the ~ode of Virginia, dealin~ with the subject of "Public Defender", which is, as ~ollows: "'~ All judges of courts, having criminal Jurisdiction in cities having, according to the last United StateS census, a population of not less than one hundred nor more than one hundred and sixty thousand, may, in their discretion, appoint a discreet and competent attorney at law to act as public defender in theLr respective courts and in the police courts frc~ which appeal lies to said courts. ~'Whenever any person is before any of said courts charged with the commission of any crime, he or she may request the judge or. justice of said court to assign the public defender to defend him or her, and should the judge trying the case be satisfied of the inability of the accused to employ counsel, said judge shall order the public defender to represent and defend such person. "'Each of said public defenders shall be appointed for a term of two years, but ~ay be removed a~ any time by the Judge appointing him. He shall serve without cempensation unless the councils of such cities, respectively, shall, in their discretion, prrovide for his compensation. ",The said public defender shall keep a record of the cases defended by him, and shall make an annual report to the court appointing him, which report shall be spread, on the order book of said courl;., "A~ a just and equitable solution to this problem, I recomm~.nd that Section 4970a be amended and reenacted in the folloming particulars: "l. So as to include the City of Roanoke within its classifications. "2. So that the public defender will be appointed for a term of one zear and be ineligible to reappointment until the expiration of two years after the · ~ompletion of his term. ~3. So that the public defe2der shall receive a minimum compensation of ~ot less than $75.00 per month for his services. This minimum salary to apply to ;he classification given to the City of Roanoke. ~4. So that one-half of the cost of this office be borne by the State and )ne-half by the l~luniciDality. "My reasons for advocating the idea embraced in No. 2, above, are the followin "The salary to be paid would be exceedingly small in proportion to the mnount of work involved. A young lawyer would be the most suitable and logical person to fill the position. The major part of his compensation would be derived from the practice and experience resulting from the preparation and actual trial of cases ~n Court, and yet, at the same time, afford him a fair, reasonable and encouraging compensation for his labor. By passing the position from one to another, annually, these factors could be mutually capitalized at a minimum of cost. "~y reasons for advocating the idea embrass, ed in No. 3, above, are the follow- ing: "Every felony indictment involves the alleged violation of a State law; the prosecution runs in the name of the Commonwealth; the indictment must conclude "against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth of Virginia-. or, under the Constitution, 0e fatally defective; the prosecuting attorney is constitutionally a State officer, and one-half of his salary and expenses of his office are paid by the State; benefit of counsel is an inherent right of the accused, why then should the State not bear one-half of the expense of fairly mid impartially enforcing and · indicativ~ the law to the unjust prejudice of no man,s rights? "It is my opinion that the whole matter would be equitably and fairly solved by this amendment to Section 4970a; that the burden would be properly distributed; expeditious handling of such matters before the courts enhanced; the public interest better served; and every reasonable requirement of econGmy met. "Respectfully yours, J. L. Almond, Jr., Judge of the Hustings Court." BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roauoke that the said July elected 1.2embers of the Senate, and the said duly elected Member of the 3enate, and the said duly elected );~embers of the House of Delegates be requested ;o oppose the enactment of House Bill No. 15 amending Section 3518 of the Code )f Virginia, insofar as it may effect the City of Roanoke, and, in lieu thereof, )ffer appropriate amendment to Section 4970a of the Code of Virginia, in accordance ~ith recommendation more specifically enumerated in preceding paragraphs of commu- nication from the Judge of the Hustings Court of the City of Roanoke.

BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the folloWing statement concerning financial position of this City be spread upon the minutes, as a matter of record, and released to the public through the medium of the press, in c~der that taxpayers and citizens of Roanoke ms~ be kept DAily in~med of municipal operations amd financial position of its local government. The General Fund resources of the City on June 1st, 1936, compared ~th June ~st, 1935 were as follows: Tax Levy - 1934 " " - 1935 Delinquent Land Tax " Personal Tax ~otes Rece~vable Sewer Assessmerms Sidewalk Assessments Accounts Receivable ~ax Levy of 1936 ~iscellaneous Reven~e 19~ ~eneral Fund Resources - 1936 1955 $ 163,059.09 238,422.85 559,445.44 249,738.10 3,818.62 50,218.62 10,040.30 2,624.38 $1,077,367.40 1,573,220.66 $ 181,555.35 313,186.16 392,230.85 21.4,958.82 3,905.22 56,906.26 10,900.68 2,~5.60 $I,175,82~.94 1,572,585.52 1,011,86Z.20 $3,662,450.26 936,838.33 $3,685,252.79 The above statement discloses that tax resources of the City for the current )eri~d declined $22,797.$3. The differ~ce is approximately six-troths of one ,ercent less than for the same period last year. The above figures clearly indicate .hat reduction in comparative general fund resources of the City of less than one ~rcent during the past year offers no cause for alarm. A review of actual operations for the past t~ years aho~ing revenues and ~isbursements is necessary in order that the public may know just mhat the ~ nancial results have been.
