ty commissioners. The new board

and the only way the people can
vote on such changes is on bills re-
ferred to them by the legislature. No
legislator would vote to abolish his
job.
The constitutional revision report
contained a bill that would allow
the people to amend the constitu-
ion by initiative. If such a law were
passed, then one-house legislature
would stand some chance Of passing,
friends of the plan held.
Other plans incorporated in the
commissions report included con-
solidation of counties to save mon
ey, permit graduated taxes, such as
graduated income tax, permit the
legislature to abolish any state de-
pertinent, facilitate state disburse-
ment of federal or donated funds,
provide for a unified judicial system
and a non-partisan school system.
