of Law Making
in State.
waarr- Press)
on of a "legislative holiday" from
ns and devotion of its d'eliber-
r more economical and efficienl
s were recommended to the 1931
in Governor Wilbur M. Brucker's
n insistence that no new burden
tax, but that rather every effort
s from its revenues. Specifically,
erty tax be reduced by $3,500,000
spreading over a four-year period
the institutional buiiung program
for the biennium.
Two minor recommendations
in the section devoted to taxation
recommended repeal of the malt
tax as difficult of enforcement and
"not in keeping with the dignity
of the state" and enactment of a
rod license law for fisherman,
thereby relieving the game fund
and the general fund of support of
the fish division of the conservation -
department.
Outlines Highway Policy.
A broad highway policy was out-
lined by the chief executive, which
has for its eventual purpose the
elimination of the township as a
road-building unit and the assump-
tion of the burden jointly by the
state and the counties. This change,
under Governor Brucker's plan,
would be put into effect over a long
period of years, and was recom-
mended in the same section of his
address in which he expressed un-
qualified opposition to the diversion
of a part of the motor vehicle funds
I g'igrhts of Bruicker's Address
wil be found on age 8, Col-
uirn 4.
for local highway use. "It is felt
by most of those familiar with the
problem that the township is too
smaill a unit to efficiently handle
our fast growing traffic," Governor
Drucker said. "Our objective must
be to have eventually but two major
un its for highway administration-
th.e state and the county. Neither
the state nor the counties are in a
position to assume at once the
burden of construction and main-
tenance of 50,000 miles of road."
In order to start in the direction
indicated, the governor recom-
mended that a maximum of $2,-
000,000 for the fiscal year of 1932
and a maximumi of $2,500,000 for
the following year be set aside by
the highway department to be ap-
portioned to non--trunk roads in
each township.
Repeal of the arbitrary law which
prevents the state from participat-
ing in bridge and grade separation
construction in cities of more than
10,000 population was asked in the
message, and the law should desig-
nate what portion of the expense
1 the state may pay in such cases.
Approves Motor Tax.
Present motor vehicle tax laws
were held by the governor to be
adequate for the state's highway
program, but a change in the regu-
latory laws providing for periodic
re-registration and licensing of
motor drivers was proposed as a
safety measure.' Classification for
taxation purposes of contract truck
carriers as common carriers was
another change recommended.
In his discussion of the necessity
of economy, Governor Brucker
urged the legislature to "get back
to first principles in cutting state
costs." He commended to the law
makers' attention the report of the
special commission of inquiry into
taxation, saying that "regardless of
whether or not we shall find our-
selves in accord with the findings
and conclusions there reached, the
report is entitled to analysis.
"Those recommendations which
are in the interest of general econ-
omy in the administration of gov-
ernment are unanimously supported
by the commission members and
should have great weight in aiding
your decision," he continued. "The
recommendation which deals with
a cha-unces-in the sste-m of txto
