Message from Chief Executive
To the Honorable Senate:
have carefully examined Senate
Document No. PA, An Act to amend
Section 16 of Chapter SO of the Re-
vised Statutes. relating to compen
sation of inspectors, and respectfully
return the sane herewith without my
approval.
This act proposes to increase the
per diem of steamboat inspectors
from $500 to $500. The State nov
spends in inspecting steamboats, and
motorboats about $500 for every dol
lar received in fees. This is due
partly to the low fee charged and
partly to the absurd and ridiculous
requirement that two men be sent
for each inspection. one to inspect the
hull and one tho boiler. have tried in
vain to secure reasonable increase
in fees for inspection and an amend
ment to the statutes so that one COM
petent inspector could be allowed to
inspect both the hull and the engine.
In the circumstances l c mot APP
prove the proposed increase to a total
cost Of $1,000 day and the travel
ing expenses Of two men.
(Signedl CARL Z. MILLIKEN
