[By Gurd Nj. Hayes.l

State Highway Commissioners Town
send A. Ely will ask the legislature
TO appropriate $1,000,000 to be
used in the construction OF state
reward roads during the next
two years. Governor Ferris,~ in
his inaugural message TO the iegisla-
ture strongly indorsed a plan to i'm
prove the condition of the roads in
this state and it is expected that Ely's
request for a liberal appropriation
will receive some consideration at the
hands OF the present law making body
However, Highway Commissioner Ely
says that if the legislature will act
favorably on Secretary of State Fred
erick G. Martindale's proposal which
was approved by Governor Ferris, to
eliminate the local tax from automo-
biles, increase the state license fee
and turn the proceeds into the high
way fund, that ii will be unnecessary
to ask the state for an appropriation
of 81, 900, 900,

Free Text Books.

There is considerable opposition al
ready being manifested against the
bills providing for free text books and
uniform text books. One prominent
member OF the legislature says that
ii the present law was applied there
would be no demand for free text
books, as the law specifically provides
that school districts can purchase
books at Wholesale and either sell or
give them away to school children.

Unlike his predecessor, Governor
Ferris will visit all of the state de-
partments in the capitol. During the
two years that be occupied the eXecu-
tive chair Osborn never visited the
apartments Of any OF the states elect
i've officers and when his presence was
required at meeting of the board of
state auditors. the meeting was held
i'm the executive Office. IL shall visit
all OF the state departments. as I be-
lieve that il is the duty OF the chief
executive TO be on good terms with
the men who are transacting the
states business" said Ferris. Il shall
visit the legislature sometimes. do
not think that 1t is beneath the dignity
of governor to call upon the lawmak-

Enhancement Of the Capitol.

Rep. Charles Flowers, OF Detroit, in
troduced bill calling for an appro-
priation of $75O.000 for the purpose of
building an addition to the state cap
itol. This measure is indorsed by the
state bar association and every coun-
ty bar association in Michigan. Two
paramount reasons are mentioned
why the building should be enlarged.
The first is that the state has out
grown the quarters provided when
the state house was constructed in
the middle seventies. The second
paramount reason for the appropria-
tion, 1t is claimed, is that the con-
tents OF the state library, conserya-
lively estimated to be worth $500, 900,
would be destroyed il a fire got good
headway, for the books and valuable
documents are not properly protected

Among the progressive measures in
troduced in the house was one by
Rep. Dunn providing for the recall OF
all elective state omcers. Rep. Whe-
Ian, progressive from Hllsdale, and
Rep. Murphy from St Joseph, sent
in practically duplicate bills prohibir-
