NO MORE LAWS?

DOWN at Olympia two attorneys are
IL busy writing laws that Governor Hart
ley will ask the legislature to pass.
And thus endeth the great 'No-More-
Laws" movement.
1t had to come, of course The governor
is as human as legislator.
Everybody is in favor of fewer laws.
except that there ought to be law about
this that and the other.
No legislator wants to have another law
passed--after one or two of his pet meas
ures are written into the code. The gov
ernor doesn't want any more laws at all
except one or two that he has up his
sleeve.
Multiply the governor by the number
of legislators and you get the total of folks
who don't want any more laws-except
maybe one or two apiece.
And SO the old law-making goes merrily
on, until nobody can keep track of the
dull legislative product and few more
unwilling lawbreakers are created for the
lawyers to CLEAN fat fees from.
But the No-More-Laws" movement was
amusing while it lasted.
Denying reports OF his discourag ement Gc,
Andrews writes that he Is full OF Intestinal for,i
tude." Old Demon Rum would have used n sbortcr
uglier expression.
