Will Sign Fat Ones
In discussing the appropriation
bills put up to him by the legisla-
ture on the eve of it's adjournment
the governor said he had put the
measures in two stacks, the fat and
the thin. He promised that the bills
in the fat pile were going to be
signed. while those in the thin pile
would be dumped in the waste bas-
ket. OF course, he was joking, but
two years ago, as he explained in his
campaign last fall, he vetoed the
thick bills because he did not have
time to read them, while he attached
his signature to the short measures
as they were quickly read and di-
gested.
The governor declared Monday
that the members Of the legislature
had taken advantage of him, after
learning his method, by introducing
thin bills. To whipsaw them, he
says, he will put the seal of his ap-
proval on the bulky measures and
veto the short ones.
