"While the times and conditions

Itentfon OF the entire world no gov
ernor. so far as / have heard, fears
that the present world war Will force
the United States to adopt policy OF
militarism,. said Secretary Riley.
'sHowever all the governors feel that
Iit Is time that immediate steps be
taken to develop a stronger and more
efficient citizen soldiery. For this
reason, the relation of the state to
the national defense has been given
a prominent place on the program.
Notwithstanding all this, other inn
portant subjects will be considered.
In many states there has grown up
In recent. years a well defined move
ment to concentrate in the executive
responsibility for efficient service and
economical administration Many
governors will go to Boston this year
expecting to benefit in a large way
from an exchange of experience with
executives of other states. This is
an or year so far as the meeting OF
legislatures are concerned. The SEES
sions fthe legislatures OF the vari-
Gus states have closed The attentlon
of the governors for the next year

ministration. Therefore, prominent
place has been given to administra-
tive problems on the conference pro-
gram. Under this head the following

cussed: 'The short ballot The func-
tons OF the governor in relation to

sources Many of them have taken
direct issue with the federal policy
OF retaining under federal control,
lands and mines. and water power
SITES These governors insist that
substantial and satisfactory progress
in the development of the West can
not be expected under the federal pol
icy and that true progress can only
be made by allowing the western
states to deal with these problems
according to their Judgment which is
based upon more intimate knowl-
edge of the situation.
Governors Carlson of Colorado:
Spry, of Utah; Boyle, of Nevada. and
former Governors Almonds, of Colo
