Of ascertaining and remedying the ills

TO those who charge that he has treat
ed labor unfairly.
Il is understood in this city that de-
tailed announcement of this new field
of activity is to be made to-day, but

Mackenzie King, former Canadian Min
lister Of Labor in the Lsurier Cabinet,
has been appointed to carry on the
work.

the new field of work.
Labor troubles and conditions all

are TO be studied eXhaustiyely, and II
is pointed out that remedying the la
Dor situation may provide solution OF
the question Of the disposition OF the

dstion.

each Of the candidates for Governor.
asking whether IN the event Of his eicc-
tion he viii exercise All his powers 10
institute q state budget system.
In Urging this question attention D.
called 20 the fact that for years the
principal issue Of campaigns bias beer
retrenehment; that one Executive after

ing toward economy IN management,
that, Notwithstanding these facts. ex-
penditures Of the state have increased

The letter urges that candidates 60
before their constituency with two inn
portant proposals: % That a budget
Is the FIRST essential Of efficient and eco

Governor is tho officer 10 whom the
state must look for a budget, rather
