Court Contest is Promised
Against Plan to Get New
State Board of Health
LOCAL BOARDS OPPOSE PLANS

There will be fight made before
Gov. McGovern to secure veto of the
state board Of health bill which creates
the position of state health officer and
divides the state into five sanitary dis
tricts, each one of which is to be pre-
sided over by an assistant health officer.
The bill will get down to the gov
ernor some time before the end of the
week, the senate amendment to the bill
having been accepted by the assembly
on Tuesday. The Christian Scientists
in all parts of the state are very much
opposed to the bill as they claim that
it gives the state health officer very
broad control over the individual citi-
zen as regards health matters.
AS matter of fact, some of the most
Objectionable features of the bill, as
viewed by its opponents, are eliminated
in the senate amendment, one Of the
rights under the original bill which was
taken away by the senate amendment
having been the placing of the power
with the board of health to enter the
home of any person at any time for the
enforcement of health regulations. 1t
was believed by even the friends of
the bill that this power was too broad,
and it was therefore eliminated by an
amendment to the measure which was
offered in the upper house by Senator
Tomkins. 1t was this amendment which
was ~acceded to by the assembly Tues
day.
Tt was over this state board of health
bill that the question arose as to
whether members Of the senate who
were under a pair but were present in
the senate chamber could be counted
in the making up of a quorum for the
passage of appropriation bills, when
there must be three-f fths of the sena-
tors in attendance for the vote The
ruling was very important as 1T formed
a future precedent for the legislature.
1t is the opinion of the attorney gen
eral that even though the paired mem
bers cannot vote on the bill their pres
ence can be accepted in counting a
quorum for appropriation bills.
In view of the opposition to the bill,
should the governor sign the measure,
which, by the way, ne is expected to
do, it is probable that the ruling that
members present under pair can be
counted in the record for quorum for
appropriation bills will be tested in the
courts, under a claim that the bill was
never legally passed because there was
not vote of three-ffths of the sena-
tors on the measure when it passed
the senate.
The attorney general, however, seems
to think there is no question under the
law that legal quorum was present
in the senate when the bill was passed.

.HAzELWOOO PRAISES NEW PLAN
Mayor Head Takes Party of Visitors
Over improvements in This County
and Urges That Racine Get Busy and
Provide Funds for North End of Road

Officials of the city of Racine, ac-
companied by State Highway Commis-
sioner Hazelwood of Madison and
Mayor Dan O. Head of Kenosha, made
a trip Of inspection over the lake
shore road between Racine and the
Wisconsin line on Wednesday with a
view of working out definite plans for
the completion of the improvement of
the road from the state line on the
south to the north end of Racine
county. The officials were particular
ly interested in the concrete road that
has been built by Kenosha at the north
limits of the city and it is certain that
the road will be continued into Racine
county with the opening Of new
building season. The road to the
north of Kenosha improved for forty
two hundred feet will be opened for
traffic next week and workmen are
now busy cleaning the dirt and sand
off the completed road.
"When this road is properly i'm
proved with a concrete surface four
teen feet wide, and gravel facing on
either side of the concrete" said
Commissioner Hazelwood, ''there will
be no finer road in the state. Owing to
the. sandy soil, there will be no danger
from frosts, as the drainage is excel
lent. Racine cannot afford to pass up
this opportunity to get state aid
amounting to $4,000, and to do this it
must raise its $4,000 fund by August
10. Kenosha has shown commend
able spirit and is going to have its
beautiful driveway, connecting it with
Chicago, finished early next year, and
this road most certainly ought to be
extended through Racine and Milwau-
kee counties at once. If Racine does
its part, it. is safe to say that by 1915
there will be a continuous concrete
highway from Chicago to Green Bay
along the lake shore. Milwaukee has
already decided to do its share. The
road offers no great difficulties to the
builders, and Racine county certainly
would be wise to get it completed as
soon as possible. !"
When the Racine party reached Ke-
nosha yesterday, Mayor Dan Head
Joined them and piloted them over
the route where work is being done on
the road in Kenosha county under
state supervision. The half mile of
roadway already completed is in excel
lent condition and is sufficient proof
that the permanent improvement should
have been made long ago.
"Kenosna is counting upon Racine to
do it's share Of the work, y said Mayor
Head. "Mr. Reed and myself have
been discussing plan to have a joint
celebration by Kenosha and Racine
good road enthusiasts when the fund
is completed in Racine county and the
completion of this project is assured.
This road is going to divert an i'm
mense amount of traffic this way and
will prove a great thing, not only for
farmers, but for every city and town
along the lake shore road"
