Brumbaugh with the bill presented by
Baldwin, of
providing for State
rate mak
ing bureaus. The approval was con
firmed on inguiry at the office of the
Governor. It waa stated that as the
Delaware county,
Commonwealth it had not been con
summated and therefore the approval
would hold.
In the list of vetoes given out is one
of the bill presented by Representative
William McCaig, of Pittsburgh, provid
ing a method for payment of cost of
persons committed to psychopathic
wards, which the Commonwealth held
to maintain. The Governor had an
nounced this bill in the list of ap
provale on Monday, but apparently a
mistake was made and the veto is
given out as of full force and effect.
The Governor smites the bill on the
ground that it is vague and does not
make it clear that the bounty of the
State should be given only to the
indigent.
The Governor also announced the
veto of House bill authorizing certain
corporations, societies and associations
having subordinate lodges to change
location of principal office.
The Governor vetoed Senate bill
783, authorizing municipalities that
own water works or electric light or
power plants to lease the same with
the consent of the Public Serviee
Commission.
