Because state agencies have grown without careful planning or coordination. Ernest H. Dean tried hard to help to reform the state government for more efficiency and less cost. Unfortunately the Governor vetoed the bill designed to study a thorough and revisal of our state government. Dean, If elected Governor, will give us a better value for our dollar and more economy for our tax dollar. i u I 3 ' a |
