Sweet and Legislation
1t is wonderful what politics
will and won't do.
Though it always pays to be
opto mistic, we really didn't
share Sweets faith in those leg
islato RS forgetting party and
voting to the best interests Of
the state.
When the republicans knew
they would have to face a code
measure. they framed up one
that would put the appointing
power in their own hands - by
putting it IN the hand Of certain
state officials, all of whom ex-
cept the governor are republic
ans, instead of in the hands Of
the governor-and they stand
pat to the man.
That's one case of what. poli-
ties will do.
Another instance is in financ.
ing prohibition enforcement. In
addition to the cost of the rang
ers. Governor Shoup during his
last term advocated appropria-
tions even larger than Sweet il
asking witho the cost of the
rangers. and yet a solid repub-
iicsn rhalanx stands in the way.
Thus the cement plant goes
by the board. the blue.sky law
is relegated to the limbo, the
cooperative marketing bill il
blocked. and apparently thus the
fate of every constructive meas.
ure the governor has asked for.
And it wants 10 be UNDER
