Making Of
BADGER LAWS

Where do state laws come from?
Why are there so many? Who is
responsible for them? How are
they made? These questions were
answered by E. Edion White, chief
Of the legislative reference library,
Madison, at the regular meeting OF
the Kiwanis club on Wednesday
at the Warren.
The laws do not originate in
Madison, the speaker assured his
hearers. They come from members
of the legislature all over the
state and from other sources, most
ly outside of Madison. At the pres
ent session every senator and all
but three assemblymen have in
troduced bills.
The whole thing is not ques-
ton of too many laws but the
right kind of laws. Conditions
change. Not what the automobile
has wrought. The capturing Of cri-
minals, the rules of the road have
all changed. A rural road is now
is as follows:
The process of making a law
as much travelled as Fifth avenue
in New York some years ago.
More children are killed today
by the automobile than die as the
result of contagious diseases.
Laws may be a necessary evil,
but they are necessary.
The state legislature is tremen-
dously important.
Observations on Law Making
Laws come about as follows:
From attorneys.
From organizations.
From manufacturers.
From anti saloon league.
From forestry department and
other departments.
From women's organizations.
From political parties.
1. Drafted by attorneys.
2. Introduced by member of
the legislature.
