The function OF the Governors
Conference as stated by Secretary
Miles c. Riley, is ito bring the gov
erns of the different states together
yearly for an exchange of views and
experiences on subjects of general
Importance TO the people of the sew
eral states, the promotion of greater
uniformity In state legislation and the
attainment Of greater efficiency in
state administration.
Two of the subjects on tho pro-
gram for the coming meeting have to
do with uniformity of laws; two deal
with functions Of the executive and
one is Of more general nature.
The subjects to be presented and
discussed and the governors who will
deliver the principal addresses are
as follows:
estate Control of Natural Re-
sources" address by Governor Will
liam Spry, Of Utah.
"Uniformity Of Laws Fixing the
Conditions to be Met by Foreign Cor

"The movement toward uniformity
of laws has been and will be acceler-
ated by the Governors Conference,
the secretary declared Continuing,
he said "and this movement is highly
important The adoption OF laws
regulating the safety and sanitation of
places of employment, for instance,
has been retarded because OF a fear
by the legislatures that such regula-
tions will tend to drive industry to
states where no such regulations are
in force. II uniformly adopted, this
objection is eliminated. II is obvious
that il the different governors will
recommend to their legislatures {
uniform law along any particular line
and will accompany such recommen'
! dations with the necessary bill OF
bills, much can be accomplished.
