Let the Board of Control Do It.
Barre Times. ]

With a board OF control making ire
gent inspections of state institutions in
Vermont, it seems superfluous for legis-
lativc committees TO go junketing through
the several institutions To be sure. it Is
custom. and custom long established.
which has seemed TO give the present
legislature the authority for going ahead
and ordering these jnnkets which take a
considerable percentage of the legislative
membership the better part of a work
week; but, at the same time, custom was
changed with the creation of the state
board OF control and the director of state
institutions and the necessity for these
legislative iunkets has been largely, il
not completely, removed. The time spent
by these junketing committees could
much more profitably he spent in atten-
ton TO the legislative duties lying imme-
diately ahead; and the work OF the leg
stature might be expedited considerably

plaes in the senate and the house Why
not let the hoard of control 10 this work ?
