Sprout has vetoed the Walker bill
providing that the minimum limit
for a number of offenses shall never
exceed one-third of the maximum
sentence prescribed by any court.
The Governor says: "The judge who
imposes the sentence with relation
to the character of the crime can
determine better than the Legisla
ture how the minimum and maxi
mum sentences should be appor
tioned. Under this bill a sentence
for conspiracy, no matter how flag
rant or how great the fraud, could
not exceed eight months; a sentence
for bigamy, regardless of the cir
cumstances, could not exceed eight
months, and a sentence for larceny,
without regard to the value of the
property stolen, could not exceed
one year. Moreover, this bill opens
the jails to release without reference
to the crimes which they have com
mitted, all convicts who have been
sentenced since June 30, 1911, and
have served one-third of the maxi
mum sentence imposed upon theni.

amendment to the borough code on
the ground that radical changes

been given. He vetoed the bill pro

that present laws cover the case.

PLAN BELIEVED PRACTICAL
London —Why not build a channel
bridge?

construction by the admiralty and
the ministry of munitions during the
war show It.
"Tho channel tunnel is estimated
to cost about 3125,000,000, and will

cost 360,000,000, and would be com
pleted within three years.
"My proposal would Include a rail
way track, with four set of rails, and
above that there would be a special
'speedway' for fast motorcar traffic."
