Safe and Sane Referending

Mitcbell-A movement has recentlv
been started in this section of the
state to raise the percentage of vot-
ers who are REQUIRED to sign a petit
ton requesting the referring OF a state
law bark to the people. Since the TO
cent election there has been strong
feeling aroused that it should be more
dificu!t to secure the ~refe~ending Of
laws which have been passed by the
legislature. Under the present law
5 per cent of the voters only is nee
essary to have a law turned rack. 1t
Is the intention to present a measure
to the legislature at the coming ses-
sion requiring that all petitions for
regferring laws must Re backed up
with the signatures of rs per cent OF
the voters of the state. This figure
may be too high, and the legislature
may cut it down to some extent, but q
strong effort will be made by h leg
islators from this section to have the
5 per cent raised to a much higher
figure.
