THE executive office is the clear
ing house on appropriations. There
is focused detailed information ON all
/ legislation pending and passed, there
the appropriations are listed, there
! the aggregates are known. And there
is lodged the final power in one
/ handtoinsUre the passage of AN APP
preparation or to smite it with a
veto, that makes an end of itThere
are no associates to be argued with
or convinced. There stands the exc
cutiye under the constitution, a veri-
table colossus, with strength the
equal of two-thirds of all the mem
| bers of both the assembly and the
| senate combined. When he says,
This is an unjust tax upon the peo-
pie; l can not approve it, or The
aggregate of these appropriations
will compel the levy of state tax
and is greater than warranted at
) this time; | return the bill without
executive approval for your further
consideration, then the bill is Oead
as julius Caesar The legislator rep
resents local interests. He may find
at least a plausible excuse for AN APP
preparation in which his particular
constituency rescues an advantage.
| But the executive represents the
whole state, and for that reason he
| is clothed with a constitutional pow
er over legislation nearly a hundred
| fold greater than that of a single
! legislator. Hence upon the execu-
| tive rests the largest measure OF
responsibility for the tax burden of
which the people of Wisconsin COM
plain.
No Excuse, He Says.
There is no excuse or justification
for this condition. Some increase IN
the expense of government may be
expected with the Growth of state
linstitutioaa and the higher ost of a
thoroughly effective administration
of government. But that added cost
should always be met out of the
steadily increasing revenues derived
/ from corporations.
1T should never again be found
necessary to levy a state tax for gen
eraI state purposes in Wisconsin.
| with all that may be said in just
criticism of the high tax rate of the
present year, the great body OF
constructive legislation written into
the statutes of Wisconsin in the
last ten years makes it easily the
model state government of the coun-
try, and the center of interest for
advanced students is civics through
out the world"
