suggestions regarding q business sta
bilization program, and am willing to
| cooperate so far as can consistently
My recommendations TO the 1899 Leg
islature OF Utah embodied the sugRes-
lions of the President in so far as they
relate to the construction of public
buildings by the State and bill COW
ering those recommendations was
drafted and introduced. That measure
provided for 20-year State building
program and invested In the governor
executive authority for the carrying out
Of the program in order that conStruc-
ton might be pushed or relaxed as
economic necessity should demand. This
feature was eliminated by the Legisla-
ture, and the bill was amended further,
making 1t mandatory to construct GER
biennium, and passed in that form
Under these conditions Utah as State
Is doing now all 1t can along the
building construction line to aid in
fighting the depression" ..s
