ORGANIZATION OF LEGISLATURE IS SOON COMPLETED Endorsement of the State Liquor stores plan as recommended by his committee of 49 and his recommendation that the plan be adopted by the legislature, were contained in Governor Henry H. Blood's message to the legislature Tuesday. Tax reforms, economy in state government and provisions to relieve the federal government of the burden of caring for unemploy-able- s and water conservation were also among the important matters brought to their attention. Members of both houses assem bled in the chamber of the house of representatives to hear the chief executive read a lengthly message in which he advised on desirable legislation and gave a general review of conditions in the state. Maw, Granger Selected The formalities of the organization of the two houses of legislature had been carried out with dispatch Monday, with Herbert B. Maw of Salt Lake City elected president of the senate and Walter K. Granger of Cedar City elevat ed to the speakership of the house of representatives. Both men had been chosen for the positions at caucuses held the previous Saturday. The Democrats strongly control both houses. Early action on the liquor question was assured by action in the senate Monday, when an additional committee was formed, to be known as the committee on trade regulation. To it, under the intention of the rules committee, are to be assigned bills proposing to deal with the liquor traffic. Storo Plan Opposed Strong opposition to the state liquor stores plan, in favor of the licensing of private liquor distributors is expected. It is understood that both Senator George M. Miller of Price and Mrs. D. C. Gibson of Helper are considering the introduction of bills providing for the licensing of private distributors. Both have strong personal convictions against the state store plan and have mandates from their constituents to work against it. Salient Passages In Governors Message Summary of major recommendations and highlight quotations from Governor Henry H. Bloods mesa go to the legislature. "The dominant note of this message must be economy.' The governor points out that "the farmer is still in a precarious condition and appeals for enactment of such bills as may reflect benefits to distressed citizens and property owners, including small home owners. o The governor expresses faith that work will begin on the Deer creek project; asks for cooperation of Wyoming in working out the Green river-Beriver project; promises that the state will guard against encroachments on our rights in the Colorado river and notes that Utah is now making efficient use of only about one-ha- lf its total water supply. The governor finds "urgent need for well considered legislation" on the subject of underground water, ar He interprets the vote on liquor provisions as a mandate from the people to repeal state laws prohibiting the sale of consti-utlon- al (Continued on Page 8) JUST TO REMIND YOU Contract Club, Saturday afternoon, Jan. 19th with Mrs. A.
