ter of the highway department. Both
recommended the reduction Of the
membership of the commission and
both suggested that a gasoline tax
be levied and applied to the mainten

In his suggestion for the reduction
of the commission, Governor Brandon
said he did not object to the per-
sonnet of the present commission.
which had been faithful in the per-
formance of duties, but he did object
to the system because 1t is top heavy
and much confusion has resulted be-
cause each member of the commits
sion has represented his own section,
while a smaller commission would be
responsible to the entire state.
Urges Industrial Commission
Governor Brandon proposed to the
the creation Of state
industrial commission which would
have control of the enforcement of
the workmen's compensation law. He
also urged members of the legisla-
ture to give consideration to the Ohio
compensation law. which. he said.
seemed to meet the needs and the
approval OF all classes affected by
compensation statutes.
Many changes are needed In tho
present law, Governor Brandon said.
so many he did not feel that they
could be included in his first mes
sage. In order that the proper COM
pensation law may be enacted for the
needs of this state, he proposed the
careful study OF the Ohio statutes.
Would Retain Lease System
Governor Brandon is opposed to
tenn at this time. He told the legis-
lature In his, first message that hs
did not believe the time had ar
rived when the state could safely
bring the system to an end and rec
commended that the time for the re-
moval of the convicts from the mines
be extended to such time as the gov
ernor and convict board believed
they could be given other profitable
employment.

would enable us to do this or not 1
am unable to say" continued Cover
nor Brandon's message, but ! am
convinced beyond question that 1t
could not be done at this time with
out enormous expense to the state
and loss of revenue to the treasury"
Governor Brandon said he favored
the abolition of the lease system as
soon as practicable. He declared
that he is in full accord with those
who favor the giving of portion of
convicts' earnings to the destitute
families of those Imprisoned.
Wants Joint Commission
He told the lawmakers he would
make further recommendation at
