Excerpt from Proposed Charter: For the City of St. Louis The Board of Freeholders was elected by the people April 1, 1913. They at once recognized that the Charter to be drafted was the people's Charter, that the people should be consulted as to what the Charter should contain, and that the voters were entitled to full publicity of every action of the Board. Consequently, through the press by general invitation to every citizen, and by personal invitation to the present and former City officers, to each member of the Municipal Assembly and to the various business, civic, labor, professional, religious, social, political and other organizations throughout the entire City, the Board earnestly sought suggestions and urged their submission, either orally or in writing, to the Board. It also sought and received advice from recognized students and experts on municipal government throughout the United States. In consequence, from April to November, twice a week at each meeting representative citizens and expert students addressed the Board. In response to a City-wide demand for a correct statement of Charter progress, the Secretary, on February 7, 1914, sent such a statement to the proper officer of every organization, civic, business, labor, etc., listed in the City Directory. On March 5th a tentative draft was published and submitted personally to the head of each administrative branch of the City, asking for criticism and suggestions. Another re-print was published March 30th, and the final draft was adopted April 29th. Pursuant to Ordinance No. 27094, each article as adopted was published as advertising in the "New St. Louis Star" and the "Westliche-Post" and published in the other papers as news. Criticism of the tentative work was freely asked and freely given. In many cases the criticism was merited and consequently changes were made. As a result the Charter is essentially the draft of the people; everyone in the City has had an opportunity to aid in formulating the Charter provisions and many have so done.
