Domestic.
With the President and Mrs. Wil-
son standing on the bridge, the steam-
er George Washington, carrying the
Fresident to the peace conference,
moved away from her dock at New
York amid a demonstration without
parallel In the history of the port.
A gigantic road construction scheme
involving an expenditure of between
$26,000,000 and $30,000,000 to be raised
by a bond issue, and which will furn-
ish employment to hundreds of Okla-
homa soldiers returning from the war,
will be proposed by J. B. A. Robertson,
next governor of Oklahoma, In his
flrst message to the general assembly
in January.
Judge Robertson will propose that
the state float a bond issue of between
$25,000,000 and $30,000,000 and that
the money be used in the construction
of a system of permanent, hard-sur-
faced roads crisscrossing the state.
The principal and interest on this huge
sum, he estimates, can be paid from
automobile license receipts, the road
fund's share of the gross production
tax on oil, and other present sources
of road money without the levying or
collection of additional taxes. He es-
timates this fund will be sufficient to
construct at least two permanent hard-
surfaced highways in each direction
across each county in the state.
A plan similar to that to be pro-
posed by the new governor has been
adopted in Illinois and New ork. Only
recently the Illinois legislature passed
a new highway law providing for the
expenditure of $60,000,000 and New
York state is preparing to spend $100,-
000,000 in new road construction and
improvements.
Employment for Soldiers.
It is understood that in proposing
this huge road building scheme, the
new governor will take Into consid-
eration the boundless opportunities it
will offer for furnishing employment
to the hundreds of unskilled workmen
who will be leaving the army and re-
turning to their homes during the com-
ing summer. Convict labor will play
no big part in the construction plan.
This class of labor will be used only
Henry White
(One of the American Commissioners)
where practical, such at as quarries,
crushers and other places where ths
material is to be prepared.
Revise Constitution.
Judge Robertson said he favored re-
vision of the appellate court provi-
sion of the constitution so as to limit
appeals to the supreme court to cases
involving $1,000 or more. This would
give district courts final jurisdiction
in a large number of cases which now
occupy the time of the supreme court.
Memorandum opinions also are sug-
gested by the new governor as a
means of cutting down the volume of
supreme court work. Appeals from
county courts, he says, should be
taken to the district court instead of
to the supreme court.
The power of making rules for court
procedure, he says, should be trans-
ferred from the legislature to the su-
preme court as a means of expediting
court work.
In discussing his court plans.
Judge Robertson said he favored mak
ing the office of clerk of the supreme
court an appointive instead of an elect-
ive position. He also favors a reduc-
tion in the number of supreme court
opinions that are printed. All opin-
ions should be filed with the clerk of
the court, where they would be acces-
sible to lawyers and others, but he
thinks some restrictions should be
placed upon the number printed.
Judge Robertson said he was op-
posed to a blanket increase in salar-
ies for officials and employes of state
and county offices.
Home Ownership.
The problem of doing something far
the men who will soon return from
the army is occupying no small
amount of the time of the new gov-
ernor, with the view of suggesting
something that will afford aid to the
returning soldiers. Judge Robertson
is in favor of going the very limit in
the administration of the home owner-
ship law and make it as easy as pos-
sible for the soldier and others to ac
quire a home or a farm. The sugges-
tion frequently offered in this connec-
tion that the state "give" the men
something can not be worked out,
he said, because such a plan would
be unconstitutional.
Industries in the penitentiary, It is
understood, are receiving careful con-
sideration by the new governor. The
printing plant in the prison, he said,
W'ould be abolished. Wherever pos-
sible and practical, he said, state print-
ing will be g'ven to the democratic
papers of he state.
