CABINET FORM OF
STATE GOVERNMENT
Further Discussion of Proposed
Amendment to Constitution.
"The constitutional amendment
providing for a cabinet form of
government for Oregon woul I
also give this state a uepkitmciu
of apiculture an agency whic;i
coulcr co-operate wiu and make
more effective the regulatory a
gencies of the U. S. tiepaumei.c
of agriculture," ?aya Hector Mac
pherbon, chairman oi the joint
commission oruadministrative re
organization. ' "
While some of the state's agri
cultural activities are well taken
care of under the present boards
and commissions system, many
are poorly provided for, and
others receive no assistance at
all, Macpherson points out. The
proposed cabinet form of govern
ment would give Oregon an ag
icultural 'department with a
ingle, responsible head, in place
oi a cozen, ana would i hmimt
a great deal of duplication of
traveling deputies, of ttce and of
fice hcip, laboratories and labor-
tory equipment.
Letters received by Chairman
.Macpherson from many of the
2i states having agricultural de
partments indicate that thev are
considered indisDensible.
states.
E. B. Dorsett, master of the
state grange of Pennsylvania.
says of the unified department of
agriculture in that state that
it is "giving better service, is
more economical, is easier to
make use of, makes the fixing of
responsibility easier, and. is more
effective as a democratic form of
government than the old system
of bepaute boards and commis
sions." Another letter from II. R.
Brush, of Minnesota, say?: "The
state grange and subordinates in
Minnesota have been heart and
soul behind the work of the de
partment of agriculture.'' He
points out that they get better
men who live, up to their obliga
tions better under the system
of appointment by the governor,
and that it is easier to retire of
ficials in case they prove ineffi
cient. Tif.r CUm'i Klmg of Baa.U
