Moody Places the Responsibility

It is the province or privilege Of the governor to
make recommendation TO the legislative branch Of
government. 1t is the exclusive province or privilege
Of the law makers TO enact legislation and to provide
revenue for the support Of all departments OF the
government. It is well to place the responsibility for
the present deplorable conditions speaking OF the
prison system and other departments OF government.
Gov. Moody has placed it:
i have told the legislature several times, that ap-
preparations would not be submitted until the sup
Elemental funds were provided to pay them. This
applies to the state prison situation as well as other
demands for money. I am unwilling to plunge the
state into deficit. and for that reason I am not going
to tender the subject Of appropriations unless the
revenue is forthcoming. Twice I have offered the
legislature the subject Of raising revenue, and it has
had so days within which to provide it.
Not a new dollar OF new revenue has been pro-
vided. and II the convicts are not cared for and the
schools and other state institutions fail to receive
badly needed funds. the blame and the responsibility
Is entirely with the legislature. I have given it every
chance to raise the supplemental revenue and failing,
I am not going 10 give IL appropriations"
This Is in the nature Of a straight from the shoul-
der message. There is no evasion OF the real issue
on the part OF the governor. There must be reve-
nue. In sight for the emergencies before the subject
90 appropriations Is passed on 10 the lawmakers from
the office Of the governor. It is we'll that the people
OF Texas should be given the straight facts. These
facts have been broadcast and it is certain that they
viii sink into the mind OF the taxpayer. and at the
proper time. he too Will place the responsibility where
Il belongs.
