Every state not already dry| will take action through the legisla- ture. Scores of reconstruction measures will be brought up for consideration, bnut most of these so far have reached | only tentative form. Good roads, tax- ation, revision of election laws, and constitutional changes will be leading |! issues in many states. “rhe Ohio legisiature, overwhelming- | ly “dry” will have up for adoption a state-wide prohibition amendment and legislation revamping the taxation! laws to meet the big deficit resulting | from the loss of liquor revenues. To Follow North Dakota In Michigan, bills will be introduced to strengthen the state prohibition | law, to create a state budget commis- sion to pas on appropriations, and to| establish a central board to purchase supplies for state institutions. The republicans, who will have over- whelming majorities in both houses of the Indiana legislature, are expected to enact laws consolidating several small bureaus, and to establish sep- arate departments of banking and in- surance to be conducted under the governor’s direction. Appointment of the attorney general and the state su- perintendent of public instruction by the governor also is proposed. The Kentucky legislatiure does not meet this year, One of the principal contests at the Tllinois session is expected to develop over the federal prohibition amend- ment.

Statutory prohibition, woman suf- frage and proposed tonnage taxes on iron ore will be vital issues before the Minnesota legislature, which also will take up legislation to prevent future disastrous .forest fires, League Issues Here Besides suffrage and the prohibition issue, the North Dakota legislature, firmly controlled by the National Non- partisan league, is expected to take up the measure fathered by the league which in effect provides a new state constitution. If the league’s bond- ing ‘and state ownership amendments pass, legislation might be expected bonding the state for the erection of terminal elevators, grain warehouses, flour mills, packing plants and oth- er industries. Matters of local in- terest will hold sway in South Da- kota : The question of taxation will be par- amount atthe Montana session. A commission, appointed two years ago will report: on alleged inequalities in tax statutes.

In Nebraska, prohibitionists claim sufficient members to ratify the fed- eral prohibition amendment, and the “drys” in the Iowa legislature like- wise claim a majority in both houses for the amendment. The Iowa legis- lature is expected to be confronted with measures intended to provide re- lief for returned soldiers and sailors. | Besides action on the federal pro- | hibition amendment, the Missouri leg- islature will take up revision of the statutes and an important mortgage recording tax measure.
