Dear Sir: referring to proposed Con-
stitutiOnal Amendment No. 4 would say:
As state expert printer 1 have given the
publications. involved in this proposed
amendment special thought, and am of
opinion both these publications are en-
tireIy superfu0us. The extensive an
nual publication 1in n daily newspaper
published at the capital city, attracts
absolutely no attention.. The annual re-
port of the state treasurer is published
in book form, and to All extent that
makes it easy for every person special
ly concerned to secure copy. To con-
form strictly with the law as it is at
present, means the expenditure, under
reasonably favorable printing contracts,
Of approximately $4,000, a sum which
can be used to excellent advantage un-
der conditions which ordinarily suggest
the greatest cnrc AID economy upon the
hart of those under whose direction the
printing fund IL expended. s##
Yours respectfully,
