The bill carried an amendment
which was offered to the original
house bill by Representative Norman
Of Stoddard county providing that the
commissioners shall Be %honorably dis

If state insurance had been proyid.
ed in the bill there would have been
several hundred positions for soldiers.
The monopolistic state insurance was
knocked out Of the bill. which finally
passed.
Governor Gardner repeatedly told
members Of the Legislature that he
did not want to go out Of Office until
a compensation act had been passed,
keeping Missouri in line with other
progressive states.

The governor faced quite a problem
in raising sufficient revenue to con.
duet the states business during the
period Of 1920. When he went into
Office he inherited a debt of mora
than $1,000, GOO. Money was Dor.
rowed to pay the debt, the state put
on a cash basis and through strict
economy and a business administra.
ton the load was paid back during
1918.
The problem of getting additional
revenue came with the ratification OF
national prohibition through which it
was estimated that the state would
lose $%2,OOO,O0O revenue annually.
The governor recommended that the
additional revenue br raised through
an increase in the state income and
corporation franchise tax and the tax

The corporation franchise tax ac.
cordingly was increased from "a cents
TO 81 on the $1,000 capital stock. while

Pay For School Men.

have been the most poorly paid per
sons in public office, were given a sal
airy increase of 80 per cent. As a ro
suit of this increase the recen conyen-
ton OF the county superintendent,
held in this city, was one Of the hap
piest ever held in the history OF the
organization.
While the governor did not recon
mend the McCullough-Morgan roal bill,
he sanctioned the measure while it
was pending and approved il despite
some protests from the cities.
The bill contemplates the spending
Of approximately $1,000, 900 on a sys-
lem Of state highway through all Of

Governor to Clean
Up Desk This Week

Governor William c. Sproul en-
ters to-day upon the last week for
acting on bills left with him by the
last Legislature with decisions
reached on nearly all of the charity
and general appropriation bills. in
cluding those for the new State Cap
itol office building and the Memorial
bridge. and his mind virtually made
up on the seVenty-five general bills
in his hands The governor will
probably veto a dozen or so of the
appropriation and make numerous
reductions. Capitol Hill having the
idea that he will be closer to $780,
100000 as all aggregate of appro-
priations than many believed. This
| means a total cut of about $1,000
600. He has already vetoed close to
s1,25O,000. Although people inter-
ested in hospitals have been here the
| Governor has declined to see any
one but Legislative and Charity
Board officials while acting on bills.
This rule has been more vigorously
enforced than ever before and many
departm chiefs did not get to see
! the Governor. The Executive De-
partment was more like the office
| of big business establishment than
a Capitol. Men were there with
data when called.
The plan of the Governor is to act
! on the appropriation bills finally the
middle of the week. Meanwhile he
will dispose OF the bills reorganizing
the Bureau of Compensation and es-
tablishing the bureau of rehabilita-
ton: various school code corporation
and other general bills. The Ram
sey bill permitting sale OF AIS liquor
will be vetoed about the end of the
week.
