And Garner Gar-ner on a showdown would be expected ex-pected to side with the conservatives. conserva-tives. Garners' strategic position in the 76th congress practically assures as-sures him of an opportunity eithi er to instigate rebellion against Mr. Roosevelt or effectively to check it if a die-hard conservative conserva-tive fringe attempted to. make more trouble than its numerical strength warranted. Petition Changed Garner's position has changed trenfendously since the 1932 campaign. cam-paign. Conservative Democrats were surprised and frightened by the nomination of "a Texas wild man" for vice president. He was called a currency inflationist uraru nuw uymany Democrats as a stabilizing - in- fluence in Washington. Polls have shown him consistently high ; among choices for the 1940 presi dential nomination if Mr. Roosevelt Roose-velt were .apt. a., candidate, again. What Garner would do if Roosevelt Roose-velt wanted a third term is noc known except he is a party man first to last.

GARNER been variously portrayed as hav ing , persuaded Mr. Roosevelt tc hold up the renominatron of Donald Don-ald Wakefield Smith to the Na tional Labor Relations Board; as having underwritten the confirmation confir-mation of Former Gov. Frank Murphy as attorney general'; and as having approved in advance the prospective nomination of Fred H. Brown, lame duck senator form New Hampshire, to be comptroller comp-troller general. It is possible that Garner's direct dir-ect connection with all that may have been over-estimated. But it is obvious here that on one issue Mr. Roosevelt rebuffed the vice president and is willing to fight. That issue is a combination of spending, deficit financing, unbalanced un-balanced budgets and relief methods. meth-ods.

GOVERNOR BLOOD FOR ECONOMY IN MESSAGE (Continued from Sales and other tax revenues will cover the state's share of estimated estimat-ed relief expensesduring the biennium. bien-nium. and should not be diverted to other purposes, he said. j The 1939 legislature is facing the "trouble-fraught task" of reducing re-ducing departmental appropriation requests totaling $9,468,567.16 by about $2,000,000, to keep them within estimated income, the chief executive declared. In the Red "The general fund must be kept-out kept-out of the red," he said. "In the past blennium the legislative appropriations ap-propriations have clrawn too heav-ilv heav-ilv on available state general fund resources, a considerable part of which was surplus previously accrued ac-crued because of a combination of circumstances which cannot be expected ex-pected to recur during the next biennium. We cannot continue to expend from the general fund, even at the rate fixed by the last legislature; without providing new sources of revenue." Advising against new taxes, the governor said appropriations should be adjusted to available revenue. The governor said the state's credit is excellent, all obligations are promptly met and the bonded debt is being rapidly liquidated. He commended the work of the state budget department. The net bonded debt of $2,642,500 is the lowest in 20 vears, he said. Justifies 19S7 Veto-Public Veto-Public welfare and relief demands de-mands on the emergency relief fund during the last biennium have justified his veto of the 1937 legislature's homestead exemption exemp-tion act, which would have diverted divert-ed money from the emergency 1 fund, the governor said. "This question will doubtless be placed again before you," the governor said. "I trust a proper solution can be found." Gov. Blood said he was forced to report, reluctantly, that the proposal for construction of a new state penitentiary "is not in favorable fav-orable shape for immediate action." ac-tion." The million-dollar prison project is also expected to be a major issue of the present session. The governor reported that arrangements ar-rangements were "well along'' for .Utah displays at the 1939 expositions exposi-tions in New York and San Francisco. Fran-cisco. He recommended the legislature legis-lature act on the proposed Utah Centennial exposition for 1947, and said a commission On the centen nial had reported unanimously in favor of holding it. The governor outlined biennial reports of the state departments, and presentd a summary of department de-partment recommendations for legislation. Among suggestions of the attorney general were proposals pro-posals for revision of the direct primary law and for enactment of a marriage law similar to those passed recently in other western states. v Utah's high record of traffic deaths in 1938 was mentioned by the governor. He asked the legislators legis-lators to study the traffic safety .problem and to take steps, if possible, pos-sible, to reduce the death toll. Progress in reclamation work, conserving and utilizing the state's water supply. Gov. Blood reported as "quite 'satisfactory."

Hour Bill The governor asked the legislature legisla-ture to study carefully a proposal for a state wage and hour bill to function with the federal fair labor standards act. He also asked that a proposal for legislation on occupational occu-pational diseases be considered. Declaring the present liquor law satisfactory, the governor said measures proposing sale by drink should be rejected as tending toward to-ward a return of the saloon. He recommended that any demand for a diversion of profits from liquor sales should be refused. Gov. Blood asked the legislature to consider proposals for creation of a housing authority and for slum clearance, but made no recommendation rec-ommendation except to suggest the measures be studied in the light of state-wide need, and in ability of municipalities to place housing projects in self-sustaining operation. oper-ation. The chief executive touched upon up-on mining and agriculture in the state during the last two years in his summary of economic conditions. condi-tions. Both houses of the legislature convened at 2 this afternoon for brief sessions. At 2:45 the senate joined the house in the house chamber to hear the governor's address.
