JOHNSON MAY
DICTATELAWS
TBy Associated Pressl

SACRAMENTO, Cal. - While no
definite announcement has been made
by Governor Hiram w Johnson re-
garding the legislative program that is
to sbea submitted to the fortySecond
session of the California state legisla-
ture, which convenes here on Mon
day, January s, it is generally assumed
from the composition of that body
that the frequently announced policies
of the governor will be furthered.
Many of his stanchest supporters in
former sessions were reelected last
November.
1t has become known that the gov
ernor favors a careful revision of the
states taxation system. This, it is be-
lieyed, will become one of the main
issues before the house. Governor
Johnson desires, it is said, to have a
plan adopted which would create new
sources of revenue and which would
more equally distribute the burden o.
the states support. AT present the
public service corporations are meet
ing this entire cost.
The governors message has not
been completed and probably will not
be until just before the legislature
convenes. 1t is said he will fully out
line his policies in this, his last mes
sage as the chief executive of the
state, before turning over the reins
of state control to his successor,
Lieutenant Governor William d. Steph'
ems. However, no definite mixing of
it's contents has thus far become pub
lie and probably will not until received
in the legislature.
The legislature will remain in ses.
sion 80 days to allow the introduction
of legislation. 1t will then stand adj
iourned for 80 days and will resume
the session in March. Governor John.
son has not yet announced when he
will assume his duties as United
States senator, to which office he was
elected November last.

il is now taken for granted that the
Eternal City with her countless mon
umcnts and works of art may soon
be attacked by Austrian aviators.
The italian military authorities
have been actively engaged for sew
cral months preparing to protect the
City from a raid with an elaborate
s. gnaL system arranged by William
Marconi TO warn the defenders OF the
city OF the approach OF enemy aero
planes. The Roman newspapers re-
Gently published notices that the
alarm would consist of five cannon
shots. with the usual ringing Of
church bells as a signal that the dan
ger was over.
While so far it has proved impos-
sible 10 prevent sporadic attacks on
London. Paris, Venice and other cit
les, arrangements have been made
that may at least prevent the escape
of raiders who attack Rome. The city
is favored by two low mountain rang
es between her and the Adriatic sea,
distance of 125 miles But should
the aeroplanes escape the coast guns
and the anti-aerial guns planted on
these mountain tops, the advancing
aeronauts will still find in their path
numerous squadrons of Italian ma
chimes The city itself is armed with
numerous high power searchlights
and anti aerial guns. The famous
Seven Hills of Rome, including the
Capitoline above the Forum, have

can is protected by another set OF
guns near the Castel SAINT Angelo,
the solid and lofty marble tomb built
for the Emperors, when Rome was
the, worlds battle center, and later
converted into a fortress.
While there is no uneasiness felt
by the people of Rome for their own
safety, IL is certain, however, that a
bomb dropped anywhere inside its
limits could hardly miss destroying

GRANGER LAWS
FOR MONTANA
CBy Associated Pressl

HELENA, Mont. Dec. 23.-The
farmers and consumers of the state
will receive consideration at the
hands of the Montana legislature,
which meets here for a two-mOnthS,
session on January g. Bills in their
interests have already been prepared
and will be introduced Immediately
after the session convenes formally.
Indications are that all legislation
passed by the coming session will be
OF compromise and joint nature
since the senate is Republican by a
large majority while the house is
Democratic. In the senate there are
80 Republicans and II Democrats; in
the house 40 Democrats and 46 Re-
publicans. From this it is believed
the session will prove interesting.
Railroad and flour mill regulation,
grain inspection, measures for the
benefit of the farmer, bills dealing
with the high cost of living, land
loans and taxation probably will oc-
cupy leading places in the legislative
scheme of the session.
There has been some talk of an at
tempt to introduce a law granting
cities and counties option on pronlDl-
ton. 1t is declared, however, by
many leading lawyers OF the state
that such law, if passed, would
prove unconstitutional because the
prohibition law was established
through the initiative. 1t is believed
by many, therefore, that the attempt
will be abandoned .-:>: ...>.-'.
An effort TO pass a siX-day racing
bill. with pari-mutuel privileges APP
pended, is expected to be made. The
prospects for its passage are not re-
garded as. favorable. Another attempt
is likely to tax mines. Neither party
is committed to such legislation, and
opposition probably will prove sue
cesSful <-... -..... -
The car shortage and the increasing
flour prices receive considerable at.
