or, that | will support con-
structive labor legislation and ad-
ministration of the same, to the
end that our laboring class of
people receive proper compensa-
tion rnd consideration.
A just, equitable and uniform
compensation or liability law
should be placed on our Statute
Books. The present makeshift
is not satisfactory to either en-
plOyer or employee, | would fa-
vor the appointment of joint
committee of employer and en-
ployee with power to jointly
formulate such a system of laws
as would fairly and reasonably
compensate the injured employee
or his family in case of death,
for submission to the Legislture
for proper action at the earliest
convenient time.
will insist that all public off
ces of the State and County are
administered efficiently and econ
Omically, so that the burden of
taxation may be held down to the
minimum, and will advocate and
work for each laws that will be
the means of bringing about the
often promised and seldom real
lied economy in State Govern
ment.
l am for supplementing our
Prohsbition Law, by proper and
adequate legislation, in order
that the same can and will be eff
fectively enforcee.
pledge my support to the end
that the Red Light Abatement
Bill, House Bill No. a, passed by
the Third State Legislature and
referred to the voters on refer
endum petition, becomes a law.
/ will endeavor to have our ell
ection laws amended and revised
in such manner that they may
be clear to all citizens, electors
and administrative officials of the
State.
l favor the ratification of the
constitutional Amendments by
our State of the nation wide Pro-
hibition and Woman's Suffrage
Laws.
/ am for a continuation of our
State Highway system and addi-
tional good roads. Will also in
sist that the Federal Govern
ment build a system of good
roads along the southern bound
ary of the State, the same being
in my judgment a vital military
necessity for our present and fu-
ture protection.
| believe that the full authori-
ty of the Legislative and EXecu-
tive branches of the State Gov
/ ernment should be exercised in
the enactment and enforcement
of adequate laws for the protection
of life and property along the
Mexican Border.
| favor continued and adequate
appropriations for the mainten-
ance of the Public Schools and
Institutions of the State, in or
der to keep up to the highest
standard. Realizing our total
unpreparedness when entering
this Worlds greatest of all wars,
and knowing the necessity and
importance of specialized train
ing and advantages of same, |
am in favor of additional appro-
priations and revenues fOf our
schools in order that we may
give our boys and girls vocation
al, industrial and military train
ing of the highest order.
AS commissioner to the State
Lsnd Department l have endeav-
ored to secure for the State the
greatested amount of revenue
consistent with good business pol
icy in the leasing and sale of the
State and Institutional lands.
/ My report to the State Land De-
partment will show the results
achieved and assure you that |
feel a great pride in the Depart
ment of State, and am in favor
of continuation Of present broad
constructive land policy:
| am for legislation that will
deal effectively with the Pro-
German and those people who
may hamper or hinder our indus
trial, military and financial eff
forts to speedily and effectively
Prosecute the War. There should
be no temporizing or halfway
measures. Our soldiers are in
the trenches offering their lives
