Scjmiede- man established a precedent last week by delivering a message to only one house of the legislature, ig noring the assembly to make plain the senate his position on problem of liquor control. In brief, his epistle blamed the senate members for the delay in en actment of a control law and charged them with playing politics on the question. The governor insisted emphatically that he would sign no bill passed by the legislature "Which did not include provision for setting up a commission with centralized authority to regu ate the liquor traffic. He drew the conclusion that only with such a com mission could the return of the old time saloon be prevented. Members of the upper house squirmed under what they termed "unjust criticism," No less than a dozen of them took the floor to protest against being made targets for the goverrior's attack.

It was pointed out that with 61 Democrats in the assembly, the low or house had up to that timexfailed to pass and send over to the senate any semblance of a control bill. At the same time, the senators vcharg ed, a bill which had found favor in the upper house was being ignored in the assembly. In the words of Sen. Leonard Fons, Milwaukee Progressive: senate has been marking time while the Duffy Democrats in the assembly try to make up their minds. One would expect that with the Democratic majority in the assembly the lower house would supr port the administration's ideas.

Yet even the administration leaders in the assembly mutilate the govern or's bill with 7 amendments before engrossing it with but two votes to spare. If there cannot be a meeting of the 61 Democratic minds in the assembly on what the governor wants, how does he expect that the senate, divided four ways politically, will accede to his demands." Senator G. Erie Ingram, I Eau Claire Progressive, and Sen. Harry Bolens, Port Washington, Democratic floor leader, called attention to the fact that the governor was demand ing the impossible when he insisted upon creation of another commission. Eight votes have been taken in the senate on the question of whether there shall be created another com mission or, whether the municipali ties shall be allowed to enact their own regulaitons for liquor control.

Each proposal, -embodying every con ceivable kind of commission and per sonnel, has been rejected by a- two to one vote, with six Democrats join ing with the majority in disapprov al. The veteran legislators are op posed to creating another commis sion to operate under the capitol dome. Even the progressives, during. whose regime of 40 years the major ity of commissions were established, have had forcefully brought to their attention the fact that regardless of who is in the governor's chair the commissions immediately become powerful political allies of the ad ministration. The governor, as head of the emergency board and also given the power of individual vetoes on appropriations, can force reduction of salaries and curtailment of com mission activities.

"And no one knows better than these veteran senators and assemblymen that once a com mission is established there is as much chance to get rid of it as there is to find fuzz, on a fish. But, aside from their antipathy for commissions, the dissenting legislators contend there is no logic in Gov. Schmedeman's argument relative to conditions that will appear if there is no centrol authority. The governor pictures a return of the evils of the old saloon. He declares that municipal regulation will not be able to contend with the problem in view of the political pressure that can be brought to bear upon local licensing authorities, A com mission at Madison would be rf from such political manipulation and corruption, is the governor's contention.

The dissenting legislators see, on the other hand, the centralization of more politics in a commission appointed by the governor than there would be in elected municipal officials. They are not unmindful, either, of the fact that the administration is endeavoring to keep free from civil service the hundreds of employes throughout the state thatwould be directed by the commission. Adding to the anomaly is the appeals board suggested by the Democrats as a last resort for centralized authority. This board, appointed by the governor, would sit as a supreme court to hear complaints of any wholesaler or retailer who deemed himself unfairly dealt with by local authorities. It would be the power of the appeals board to revoke or reinstate the license of an appealant, depending upon the evidence presented.

As suggested by one Democratic senator, the appeals board would not only serve to take away all home rule but would also indirectly provide for return of the old time saloon with the approval of the governor's commission. The proposition is put forth that a saloonkeeper, deprived of his license by his common council for failure to adhere to strict regulations, could appeal to the Madison liquor board. It would be the power They put fools in the world for the same reason they put the black keys on the piano to vary the monotony. Minister And what parable do you like best, my friend?

TUn Villi nrftVldlTlff for local option on liquor control would have been in the hands of ipov. Schmedeman for approval -this week had the administration not insisted at the last minute to include an ap peals board. The assembly worked on the measure two days, made 47 changes that the senate would have acceded to, and was ready to concur in the bill when proceedings were halted to allow Asemblymen Donnelley. and Noyotny to introduce an amendment proyfdAnjgf for the appeals boarcf. ired and hungry, the assembly passed the amendment by a 43' to 40 vote and then ordered the bill to a third reading by a margin of affew votes.

It was only when the measure came up for final passage that the anti-commission assembly men awakened to what was before them. So, after having given semi-approval of the measure they killed it by a vote OI 4t to 34. I The senate meanwhile had killed th6T Am a 9 last administration bill existence, leaving both houses exactly where they were on the day before the special session was called. Desirous of affecting a compromise, Assemblyman Nixon, movedj for reconsideration of the vote by which the Griswold bill had been killed. He did so, he declared, to give the Democrats one more chance to pass a control bill without a commission.

Early this week Mr. Nixon intended to introduce an amendment to strike out the appeals board from the wold bill. Gris- In that shape the measure will not be contested in the upper house. However, Gov. Schmedeman has declared he will not sign any bill that does not provide for a commission.
