When no message was forth

abundant.
Had the executive, used to le
islative obedience, been cowed by
the 1932 legislators who refused
to follow instructions as docilely
those of two years ago? Was
the governor's office playing pol-
ltics, unwilling to force through
a sales tax. unwilling to accept
blame tor restoring the three-mill
property levy?
Was the governor playing pok

to the extent of letting the inju-
dicious bills passed last week be-
