on the municipalities. The amount of
taxation mandatory is excessive. 1t
requires at least l mill on the dollar
annually on all taxable property. But
the fundamental objection is the pro-
vision for its administration. The
municipal authorities, duly elected, are
trustees, which appointive board in
turn has power to mandamus the
elective body for the funds above
recited. This idea has never been
found practical or wise. The chosen
officers of the people should not be
compelled by a subordinate body to
apply the peoples money as the latter
may direct"
The Governor vetoed the House bill
relative to contracts for county bridges,
which, the Governor says, would pro-
hibit county commissioners from con-
tracing for or repairing bridges with
out due advertisement, the employ
ment of competent engineer and sub
mission of plans to the Water supply
Commission. The Governor remarks
that the limitation for employment of
a competent engineer for bridges over
seventy feet in length is unwise be-
cause smaller bridges may need engi-
neerS as much as others. He says:
THE possibility of collusion. on the
part of bidders turks in section and
section 3 practically introduces a new
bridge law. The parties holding pat
ents for concrete bridges would well
come this provision, but the people
might not. The Commonwealth knows
no favorites. Let all alike have an
equal and open opportunity to compete
for it's business and that of its political
units. The present law is ample to
care for the problems visioned by this
bill"
Other vetoes announced were:
House bill amending acts relative
to distribution of estates of intestates.
which. the Governor says, contains
provisions which are conflicting and
irreconcilable and would lead to liti-
CATION. Laws that are beneficent
should remove cause for litigation" he
concludes.
House bill granting sesond class
cities eminent domain and certain
powers over plblic service companies
except telephone companies, which,
the Governor holds, is unconstitutional
in depriving of property without due
process of law and would interfere
with functions of the Public Service
Commission.
House bill relative to garages on
highways ten feet or more in width.
which is vetoed because a similar bill
was signed.
The Governor is expected to dispose
of election bills tomorrow. The full
crew repeater and ship canal bills may
not be acted upon for several days.
