state and far greater than when the
same kind of work Is performed by pri
vate enterprises. The cost and Incon
venience attendant upon the adminis
tration of forests further illustrate
the weakness of Federal supervision.
"If the leasing system of mineral
lands and pomer sites must be adopt
ed, then let the price that may L-c
charged consumers for service be the
determining factor rather than the
amount of revenue that is received."
MUhisslppian Takes Issue.
Governor Noel, of Mississippi, spoke in
behalf of the Federal control of resources,
lie said that the Cnloo was one great
family and that one. should help the
o;h-r. This iu-a was Inspired by the
fact that MtssMsvnppt once had wealth In
natural resources, but through mtsraan-sgens-nt
by state officials the common
wealth now gained nothing from lta ex
tensive forests.
This brought a warm retort from Gov
ernor Norrls. who said tho fact that
Mlsaisstppl hsd mismanaged her affairs
wss no reason why the people of that
state sliould try to put the control of the
natural resources of the West In the
hands of the Federal Government.
Uovernor Hadlry. In hla sddress on
-iUnpioyers' Liability and, "Workmen'a
Compensations." suggested that a com
mittee of Governors be appointed to draft
a bill to be presented to all Legislatures.
The subject vu deferred until tomorrow
morning.
Governor 8 loan, of Arizona, declared
tho stales could best control water rights
snd public lands, although he said the re
cently completed Irrigation work done by
the Government In his territory was ben
eficial. Bofttonian Predicts Revolt.
Stripping State Legislatures of many
powers, making the Governor's office
the real organ of authority, and voting
for men, not measures, were advocated
by Gamaliel Bradford, of Boston. Un
less tbe right was given to Governors
to be heard In discussion of proposed
laws In the Legislatures, another revo
lution will result, he predicted.
Mr. Bradford contended that the
Governor should be the real power in
the state. He said that such diverse
interests were represented in a Legis
lature that Intelligent action for the
state as a whole waa Impossible. For
this reason the Governor, representing
the whole state, should have more
power in framing the laws.
He urged that government by com
mission was wrong, and based his
statements on the Increased expendi
tures in New Tork state since depart
ments have been governed by them.
The question of perfecting a permanent
organization was discussed at the ex
ecutive sessslon. it was understood, but
no action was taken. Many pf the Gov
ernors favored this.
The conference chose Spring Lake. X. J.,
for the next meeting place, and will
gather there in the first week of Sep
tember next year.

heads of the departments at the Cab
inet conference yesterday.
The President was greatly gratified
with the showing announced, but de
clared there must be a still deeper cut
so further consideration of the schedules
was postponed until Friday to allow the
Cabinet officers to make another revis
ion of their figures. The delay in the
preparation of the President's messaae
is said to be due to the necessity of wait
ing for estimates in their final form.
Just as soon as the message is out
of the way. the President will devote
the next three days to seeing Senators
and Representatives regarding the leg

I have tested. I keep these records classified, numbered and indexed.
I can turn at once to' any name and can give you full particulars of
what condition your eyes were in at that time. If your eyes have
changed, I can tell you how much and in what way. If you have
bought glasses of me and they have become broken or lost, I can sup

you can mail an order to me and another pair will be sent to you.
If you are suffering any inconvenience from the use of your glasses,
the" readjusting of your frame may afford the desired relief. I am
most willing to adjust your glasses at any time you may call.
If there exists a doubt of any kind concerning the work I have done
for you, I will be glad to answer the doubt with information gained
by years of experience.
If any part of the frame or mounting is broken, or if they have
not given entire satisfaction, I will replace them with new ones with
