{ MEMBER COLORADO EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION

By holding that the bill before
the legislature is unconstitutional
Attorney General Leslie E. Hub
bard has handed down decision
which may stop all attempts to
amend the initiative and refer
endum law at this session.
There has long been complaint
against the working of the statute
adopted by the people several
years ago. 1t has been declared
by many to be expensive and to
be productive of conditions and
laws which do not represent the
people of the whole state. 1t is
argued that populous centers can
initiate purely local measures for
which the whole state must pay.
On the contrary, many people
interested in reform legislation
object to any amendments to the
constitutional provision and claim
that the abuses of the measure
are small compared with the bene-
fits.
But now Mr.. Hubbard has rul-
ed that the legislature cannot in
any way amend this law which
was passed as a constitutional a
mendment and is therefore part
of the constitution. He holds
that the legislature can submit an
amendment TO the law to the
people and thus have the amend
ment voted on, just as the law
itself was voted. But this. he
declares, is the extent of the leg
isla tive power.

to cost of public printing. with
the end in view that all printing
may be passed on by the state
