Another measure is nn amendment to ex:s:inir statutes which would permit the public utilities cuinmissinn to rant authority to carriers to charo more proportionately for short hauls than lor ion hauls. This amendment was su-tav.e.l su-tav.e.l by the governor in his message. Sponsored by tho Utah Auto mo bile association, two bills desiirned to copt1 with the increase in autotnobilo thefts in the stale will be introduced through the senate. One of tlse nieasures will make siealim; automobiles a felony and the other is designed to assure adequate punisiiment for juvenile offenders and to cianfv the (question of "intention of t heft ' ' which has been the leal point upon which many attempted prosecutions have failed. A measure asked for by the state came and fish commissioner would prohibit pro-hibit tho use of dynamito in fishing and would attach heavy penalties lor violations. Tho joint committee, consisting of Senators Olson, Dern and yanford, with Keprcsentutives Morris, Adn?y and Blakely, from the house, decided that they will submit the bills to tho respective re-spective houses without recommendation, recommenda-tion, regarding their function in the matter as simply dividing the work of the session between tho senate and house, and in no way making them sponsors spon-sors for tho legislation. It is possible that other measures of importance will be presented to tho legislature, leg-islature, as the governor has authority au-thority at any time to appear before the two branches to present a special message. The legislators themselves, however, have no authority to initiate legislation that would deal with subjects sub-jects other than those presented b3' the governor.

Penalties called lor would be a fine of not less than SuO, nor more than i'290, or imprisonment in the countv jail for not less 'ban fifteen davs nor more than six months, or bv both such fine and imprisonment. Conviction a second time would make-prof make-prof iteering a felony. This measure probablv will be presented during the ixiion and already has aroused considerable con-siderable interest in both tho senate and the house. The appropriation bill will bo introduced intro-duced in the senate. Will Correct Error.

This action is taken as a result re-sult of a clerical error made in engrossing engross-ing tlao original bill as passed by the regular session of the thirteenth legislature legis-lature One or two minor amendments f wording are to be included in the re-enacted re-enacted measure in order to clarity minor points.
