those who are representing any inter
est for a compensation are subject TO
the provisions Of the law. and as long
as they are working without any COM
p%ensation, there is no reason why they
should register in the lobby book.

they want specific suggestions as 20
where this saving could re accom-
plished. The general belief is that
there could be a material saving to
the state by better business methods,
but that it could be brought to any

ing just how it could be accomplished
