One Of these is the Sherman Smith

The governors signature is withheld

The governor holds that the proper au-
thorities to appoint a municipal board
is the council Of such municipality, and
not the judge Of that general district.

is ambiguous in it's Language, and its
veto was recommended by the attorney
general. The governor also vetoed the
Selb bill, ito reimburse former county
surveyors}for team hire expenses.
This makes eight bills the governor
has SO vetoed: The others are the Hor-
ton capitol bill (Which was repassed

to legalize the practice Of chiropractic
medicine and establish state board;
the Skinner bill, cutting out Cook coun.

nit implement dealers to form mutual

same time repealed another more meri-
torious insurance law.
