OLD CHARITIES

MILEAGE AND PER DIEM GIVEN FORMER MEMBERS = S24a.7o
 FROM DEFICIENCY FUND.
HART CLAIMS $525 SALARY
Warrants Were Issued Followno a Conference Between Governor
 Hays and New Board
Little Rock.

Little Rock Auditor M. F. Dickinson issued war rants to pay the per diem and mileage of seven members of the two former state charities board Warrants were issued following conference between Governor Hays, Attorney General Moose and the new Board of Control of the state charitable institutions, upon the instructions of Judge Moose. No arrangement has been made to pay R. w. Hart, secrstary of the old board. He claims S252 as salary from December 16 until April l.
 The warrants issued totaled ST. 64370. The legislature appropriated Sl,300 to pay the per diem and mileage of the members of the State Chari- ties Board" This fund was insuffi- cient to pay all the claims, and the remainder was allowed out of the de- ficit current expense fund of the state hospital, amounting to $110,000, ap- propriated by the Legislature to pay ary and March, 1915, because the cur rent expense fund of the institution was exhausted February 1. The new Board of Control agreed to this and issued certificates for the warrants on the fund as a result of the conference.
 Governor Hays gave his approval to the appropriation bills of the last Leg islature after vetoing outright the Je- ter bill, carrying $45,000 for the re- moval of the boys reform school and establishment of boys and girls indus trial training schools, and after trim ming down the other appropriation bills until the total in vetoes and re- auctions amounted to S595.032. This leaves S2,490,032 standing out of the S3,0S6,6S1 appropriated by the last Legislature.
 On this basis Governor Hays estl- mates that the state will be on cash basis at the end of this beiennial pc riod, and that in the meantime no state institutions or departments Will sustain serious hardship. He issued lengthy statement in connection illl liC NCLoCS, tApiciilAiiiso Nhe"S iA~ AANN@' been forced to use the veto power freely through the failure of the Legls- lature to make provision to care for its appropriations. He also believed that he will be subjected to biting criticism for his vetoes in some sec tions, the thinking people of the state will stand behind him in his action as the only thing left to do. He states emphatically that he will discourage any future deficiencies, such as his administration had to meet in the sum of nearly S140.OOO. and says his successor will not inherit any such nest of financial troubles.
 His vetoes effect particularly the state agricultural schools. S4O,ooo being stricken from each under the item of salaries.

The Alexander road bill is now a law, having been signed by Governor Hays. The new act revolutionizes road building in the state, both as to the method of creating road improve ment districts and pushing the work to completition when once inaugu- rated The two big features of the bill are the stability of bonds issued by improvement district created there under and the elimination of delays in carrying forward road building.
 The new law provides that an i'm provement district for the purpose of road building may be created when. ever majority either in value, acre age or number of land owners petition the county court for the creation of such a district, thereby doing away with the ability of big land owners who may not even live in commun- ity holding back the formation of a district merely because they happen to own the majority in land value, as was the case under the old law. It is predicted that the new law will result ill from $3,000,0O0 to s5,000,000 in road work within the next two years.
 Governor Hays also signed the bill creating a board of public accounting and requiring examinations hereafter under such board for license to prac tice as an expert accountant in the state. He also signed the bill by Sen ator Smith of Union County giving members of the state pharmacy board the right to bring suit for violation of any provision of the state pharmacy act. Heretofore legal actions or prose cutions hereunder were confined to prosecuting attorneys.
 The governor also signed the House bill revising the code for the practice in the Circuit and Chancery Courts of the state, as suggested at the state meeting of the state association of cir cult judges and chancellors.
 This is measure of importance to the bench and bar of the state
 Another measure signed that is far reaching in it's effects on cities and towns in the formation of improve ment districts and the privileges granted cities in connection with i'm provement districts is the bill by Rep. resentative Woods. It greatly enlarges the powers of cities in improvement district matters, especially in provid- ing for municipal improvements, and will, in a measure, supply some of the features sought under the bond amend ment.
 Other bills signed by the governor are of local nature
