STRENGTH oF PRECEDENT.

1t matters not what our business
rules are now there will be day
when we have progressed to that
point where we will not feed the
flames of war in other countries. We
are impoverishiHg . ourselves that
men may be slain in Europe. The
oil industry of America is being ser
iously hampered because our factor
les cannot fill order for steel. The
scrap piles of Europe are getting the
material we need in our own indus
tries. The banks of the East are
burdened with war profits and the
men and women of Europe are dying
because we are furnishing the imple.
ments of destruction. Every Amer
leans conscience must ask of him
where art thou. and the answer
must come back Thou art living in
an age when men are educated to
take profit out of that which stran,
giles the lives of men, that which
creates widows and orphans, that
which makes the devil laugh in glee
that mortals are such fools"

half of the members of the Legisla'
ture, and where he has further made
requisition for the same to be print

when the matter is brought to the at
tention of the Governor and the
Board of Affairs it is their duty to

Can Censor, Delete or Reject.
Mr.. Matson In his opinion holds
apparently, that the State Board OF
Public Affairs has power to censor
delete or reject these arguments. His
line of reasoning is as follows:
"In our opinion, the authority con
ferred on the board in the matter
of public printing is broad enough to
include the power to review all the
acts of officers, boards of institutions
making acquisitions for public print
ing and to correct and direct a cor
rection of any error committed by

POWERS OF STATE BOARD
OF AFFAIRS ARE EXPANDED

oklahoma City, Okla, May q.--A
considerable expansion of the powers
of the State Board of Public Affairs
over the other executive departments
has been accomplished by the opinion
of Smith c. Matson. assistant attor
ney general, in reply to an inquiry by
Governor Williams with regard to the
printing of arguments in the public
ity pamphlet on the proposed aGend-
ments to the Constitution. The Gov
ernor sought advice from the attor-
ney general as to the arguments nlCd
by the Socialists against the grand
father clause and the abolition OF
county courts. These had been sent
to the State Eoard of Public Affairs
by Secretary of State J. l.. Lyon, who
conceived il to be his duty to do so.
In his letter of inquiry Governor
Williams asked of the attorney gen.
eral:
Inquiries Made by Governor.
The contention has been made to
me as Governor of the State that as
to constitutional amendments sub
mitted to the people through the in
strumentality of the Legislature. only
the arguments to be printed at the
expense of the State are those made
for and against the amendments on
behalf of the Legislature, and that
where arguments are submitted sole
ly by private individuals or other

PEACE MAY BE NEAR.

Woodrow Wilson might ask for
aid obtain an armistice for one
month to give the belligerent nations
m opportunity 60 talk over peace
terms. IN the note to America Ger
many puts it in between the lines
tLat it is ready for peace and it does
seem to us that if the Kaiser is
r.; ;aiy the allies also ought TO be. No
one Understands better than Ger
maay that it cannot prevail against
the allies. The, allies can draw upon
the resources, Of the world because
the seas are'ropen to them and Ger
many cannot prevail in the end. 1t
stands to reason then that the earlier
1t gets terms of peace those terms
will be better. no look at the ques-
tion from the side of the allies it
seems that they should have suffered
humiliation enough in the world
war to Justify them in accepting
pttNt NtlillS. HN Di
especially haTe suffered great losses
that must be humillatng to that
country and it'and its allies may be
able to vanquish Germany in few
years more but the nations would be
exhausted, they would be rent with
internal strife and the results would
by no means Justify the sacrifices.
If once an armistIce could be de-
clared if for one month the guns
would cease to fire, If for only Il
short time the people could rest their
nerves from the tenseness produced
by the fear of slaughter at the front
there would be no more fighting.
An influence for peace would come
from every home and the rulers
would become SUBSEQUENT to that in
fluence and a''treaty of peace would
be the final outcome of an armistice
of one brief month.

them where such matter to be printed
does not come within the scope of
the law no conform to the require
ments of law.
"The Legislature has conferred au-
thority upon the Board of Affairs to
contract for all public printing and
this means for such printing only as
is authorized by law to be printed.
CAS- the State is not bound by un-
authorized contracts, the board
should be particular to act strictly
within the scope of it's authority in
the letting of contracts for public
work and supplies, including the pub
lie printing.
Authority is conferred to print and
distribute certain arguments at the
expense of the State; there can be
no implied authority in the board to
contract for the printing of other ar
guments not authorized"
