Progressive Methods Fail.

Emphasizing the need of radical re-
vision Of many Of the present methods
of legislative procedure, the Alabama
governor cited constantly growing
distrust of state legislatures on the
part of the people. in some states
he declared. this distrust has grown
INTO open contempt. In many. Il ses
sion of the legislature is looked upon
as something in the nature of an un-
avoidable calamity Business be-
comes alarmed, industrial development
is checked and there is general appre-
henson.'
Various methods adopted To increase
the tone and efficiency of legislative
bodies have. said the speaker, failed
To improve the legislative output. 1T
will he found" he said, that the leg
islatures have been more corrupt and
more incompetent in exactly the pro-
portion that they have been increas-
ingly deprived of power and their re-
sponsibility restricted"
Supporting his contention that fire.
quent Legislative sessions would aid in
llNI ftlSiiS Nllt tlllNltIlNy VI l'S iSlfh-
lures Governor O'Neal cited his own
state, where but one legislative scs-
sions is held every four years. There
the quadrennial system he declared,
has proven To he the most prolific
source yet devised for hasty. ill-ad-
vised and ill-considcred legislation.
The vice of the system is that is denies
the people for -four years the right To
repeal or revise vicious or unwisc leg
islation.'
Favors Representative at Large.
Continuing Governor ONeal said:
The present salary in almost every
legislature is utterly inadequate. 1t
would he better for the state to invite
free service from her citizens than to
pay the miserable pittancc she now
offers.
"One Of the strongest objections TO
our legislatures Us now constituted is
that the members represent only local
tiles and are more concerned in pro-
noting local legislation than in en-
acting necessary laws for the state at
large II would unducstionably elevate
the tone Of state legislature if n Ger
tain proportion of it's members were
elected from the state at large. Tho
membership of our legislatures should
also he decreased.
Another defect in our methods Of
legislation is that there is no central
responsible authority which can be
held accountable for the laws enacted.
| There Is but one remedy for this, and
hat Is to increase the powers and du-
| ties of the executive. AS President
Wilson has wisely stated. the people
demand leadership. They look To the
governor, and not To individual mem
Ders of the legislature for such meas
| ures as conditions may require
The initiative and referendum was
characterized 10y the speaker as
| merely palliative temporary, not
a permanent. remedy"
The theory that every citizen
should he allowed to become a law
maker" said Governor O'Neal, lis
more plausible than practical"

It is easily possible to work up n

"A scattering or OF n riotous mosaic OF

equipment who deferred its purchase
until she had decided In what colors
to have the kitchen itself painted.
Utensils OF iron or in tin or OF cop

natura, coIors. whatever their room
surroundings. but with porcelain
utensiIe she could buy white or blue
or brown or vari-colored, or utensils
with one color without and another

and on these she did not wish to de-
eide until she had decided on the
