Igleh art The twenty-sixt- h legislature broke up Monday night in ratheT a haze of mutually exchanged unremarks between complimentary the Governor and the Senate over the administration of the state liquor commission. That particular subject took the public limelight for the last week and prolonged the session into five "sixtieth" days, the sixtieth being the legal termin-ato- n. But meanwhile the boys and girls had dumped a $27,777,000 appropriation on top of the taxpayers, reviving the general property tax levies, grabbing a bond reserve fund ot $300,000 and giving the general fund an estimated three million dollars above a legislated ceiling on public welfare hinds; all to met the Santa Claus spirit of the appropriations. They further accomplished these worthy purposes without doing anything in particular to meet the anticipated post war employment and construction problems. Democrats will be arguing far quite a spell as to whom came out first in the liquor controversy, the Governor or the Senate. The latter turned down a reappointment for James C. Allen (R) whose term is expiring, but the former refused to acceed to the senate demand that he fire the other two members. The Republicans will just go right on saying, as they are now, that both Democratic factions lost. Only the yotars can eventually tell. The evidence compiled is being sent to the alt Lake County and Third District Court attorneys for possible grand jury action. So what? The legislature did on a temporary basis that promises pretty well, the state school system. In so doing they permit city, county and district boards of education to lift their levies fetr school purposes in varying degrees and gave the system a general fund appropriation of $4,622,000 with provision that the districts will have to meet higher standards in teachers wages in order to participate, as well as meet state board curriculum and other requirements in order to more nearly equalize educational opportunities in the state. This program was formulated by the Governors special school financing committee which labored for Pleas turn to page four MARRIAGE ANNOUNCED Petty Officer c Farren Peterreturned from two and a half years of service with the U.
