OF SOME BILLS
1TnTnnC DEUEHgrE

1OlENO AEJEClED
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, Dec. l.-That
Gov. Hyde will try again to have
passed certain bills he deems bene-
fetal to the State of Missouri became
evident yesterday wnen he said he
would recommend the repassage of
certain bills by the General Assem-
bly, Of 1921 that were defeated by
voters Nov. z, at the approaching
General Assembly.
Gas to the county unit bill, the
country people are not thoroughly
taught all its good f~eatrues, the
Governor stated. The rural dis
tricts voted it down 1t is not my
desire to ram blessings down the
throats of country people or any
body else"
In speaking of the workmen's bill
submitted and defeated Nov. z, he
said: an the last six years three
Legislatures have passed a compen-
sation law and three times it has
been referred and three times defeat
ed" He let it be known he would
hardly recommended its repassage.
Gov. Hyde declared. the budget and
consolidation bills should have been
adopted. 81 may recommend their
passage in some other form, he said.
1T is possible that perhaps the same
ends may be accomplished in another
way"
