Governor Spry's Message, i To the House of Representatives: As the eiph'th session of the legislature legisla-ture Is drawing to its close, I respect-jl respect-jl fully call your attention to a very im- portant subject which has not yet re-i re-i celved your definite action, and upon ! which you should not fail to provide. effectlvo legislation. .This subject is the regulation and control of the 11-! 11-! quor traffic within the state. I am aware of the multiplicity of j Interests that exist here, and the vary-j vary-j ing conditions between communities ' In different sections of Utah, also that I the welfare of all must receive first I consideration. This end can be reach-I reach-I ed, in my opinion, by a measure that Ji avoids radicalism, and provides for a I J 6trlct enforcement of its provisions, jl I had hoped that by this tlmo action t to this end would have been taken by your honorable body, but at present there does not appear to bo any such measure near to enactment. The situation situ-ation appeals to me as one where my i duty requires me to urge you to Im-! Im-! mediate action in the premises, j This legislation should be directed against vice In secret form as well as ! when displayed In the open. There-i There-i fore I earnestly recommend that a law Including both local option and strict regulation as these relate to the liquor traffic, should be enacted, and that its provisions be drawn carefully within : the constitution so there will be no failure.
