to be formulated by the justices. Their

the second succeeding term after hearing

Of county court should fix the number

the state to endeavor to prevent crime
rather than to await its commission and

THE INCOMING GOVERNORS
RECOMMENDATIONS.

The message of the incoming governor
of Vermont is a plain, direct statement
of honest conviction following a study OF
conditions through several years of serv.
from the speech of rhetorician: it is a
blunt instrument OF conveying ideas in
the fe,Vest words. At the same time
the message is considerably more revom-
tionary than has been customary in
Vermont for long time. At the outset,
Gov. Graham INDUCES in some homely
words of advice to the legislators, and
with that advice there win be full ac-
cord on the part of the people of the
state, For instance, this is a particularly
accurate portrayal of public sentiment;
"We already have too many laws more
honored in the breach than in the OBJ
servance. Let us not at this session
continue to fill the statutes with further
useless and unnecessary legislation" 1t
is good motto to hang before the men
tai vision of the legislators all during
their legislative term at Montpelier, cou-
pied with which should 90 the further
adjuration to "set yourselves resolutely
to the solving of the problems as they
present themselves" Nothing could be
better
Turning next to the body of Gov. Ora
hams message, one finds that he has
scheme of administrative reform which
has for its chief feature the establish
ment of board of control" as he calls
it. In effect, this "board of control
seems to take on somewhat of the char
acter of a presidents cabinet, only that
it has the power of checking certain exec
utive acts. such as the appointment of
some officials, in addition to the func-
ton of acting in an advisory capacity to
the governor. The scheme is perhaps a
revival of the old governors council. |
Whether this "board of control" would I
be able to carry on the various duties /
outlined by Gov. Graham, including the |
taking over of some of the work of pres
ent commissions, is a matter for debate,
If not for doubt. It is a question wheth-
er we would not be sacrificing efficiency |
in an endeavor to effect economy in
administration. The state of Vermont II
should be run, as Gov. Graham states,
like a big business corporation; but
big business has its separate departments
under men thought specially fit to carry
on the work, and it is not thought wise
policy to saddle any one group Of men
with the oversight of widely differing
activities in that business. Specialize
tion rules in big business, in order to get
the best results; specialization might be
expected also to bring the best results
in governmental agencies At the same
time, il is agreed that some OF the minor
jobs in state administration might easily
be assigned to some Of the Offices already
without detriment to the
service. In so far as that Is concerned,
the plea of Gov Graham for a less numer-
Gus official list IS likely to carry strong
conviction. There are many other sep
arste points in the message which strike
one as particularly good. notably the rec
that the power to pay out
state money be more closely confined to
he treasurer's or auditors department.
Specifically, we refer to the right now
