In reply. Japan has sent supple

marking the articles not included in
her first statement on this subject.
Japan explains that ns these articles
were in the nature OF requests con-
corning old and long pending questions

1t generally is understood in Tokyo

agriculture, characterizing the
amount devoted to that purpose as
wholly insufficient. He favored
maintaining the states policy relative
to conservation of forests and water
powers, and went on record squarely
against the plan to bond the state for
the construction of storage reser-
yoirs.
The bond for the state treasurer
should. in his opinion be increased
from 100000 to 100000 In regard
to the state insurance department
Governor Fletcher said there should
be a new department with distinc-
tive head and he favored such legis-
lation as would prevent the suspicion
of an insurance ring He further
recommended the adoption OF law
giving the governor the right to EN-
ploy counsel to defend individuals
who through lack OF financial re
sources are unable TO protect their
rights in federal courts. He favored
placing the control OF the state library
entirely in the hands of the supreme
court.
The governors recommendation
as TO education followed closely those
of the state educational commission
whose report is to come before the
legislature in the form of a bill He
also favored adoption oil the principle
OF workmen's compensation and en-
ployers' liability, and said that the at,
titude OF the legislature toward direct
primaries should be one OF good faith
toward the people.
He recommended the erection of a
school for feeble minded children. and
the consolidation OF the board for
feeble minded. the board for insane,
the penal board and the Office of ser
geant-at-arms into one board of which
the governor and purchasing agent
should be ex-ofiicio members. He
spoke strongly against any attempt
TO tamper with the public service
commission law, and warned the leg
islature against stopping litigation
to establish the states right to regu-
late rates.
Governor Fletcher said he was sat
ished that the state did not need an
attorney general and recommended
aholishing the Office which he said
would mean saving to the state of
practically $4,000 every two years
With view to decreasing the cost OF
justice he favored doing away with
the superior court, adding two or
more judges to the supreme court and
giving wider Jurisdiction to munici-
pal courts He opposed changing the
principle involved in the present tax
law
In conclusion he expressed the be-
lief that the state would be benefited
less by the passage Of too many new
laws than by the correction or elimi
nation OF some that now exist and by
the honest, forceful and fearless ad-
ministration OF those that are retain
