Lincoln, April 7.—Governor Charles jgHv. Bryan announced today that he yVvould neither sign nor veto house i ]roll 277, the bill creating a state jpuaranty fund commission, t This action, or lack of action, by '‘the governor means that the bill be ,'Ionics a law without his signature.

Today was ;j*the fifth day after passage by the ’ legislature. This is the second time this session the governor has used similar tac 1tics in permitting a Bill to become a law. A bill appropriating |1,800 to ,-forer Lieutenant Governor P. A. y.parrows for salary as acting governor automatically became a law for lack of action on it by the governor. The former lieutenant governor now has , the *1,800. "I forgot to take any action," the governor explained when asked about the Barrows bill, ‘‘and now I find It makes no difference what 1 do. the bill is a law. There were some things in the bank bill I liked and other • things I disliked." the governor said 'in explanation of his failure to take 'any action on the bank bill. “Therc i fore, I will let it become a law witli l out my signature."

Bryan announced today that he would veto any bill sent to him by the legislature which didn't carry out the letter of his executive council plan of government. "It doesn't make any difference whether the legislature puts senate file 2 through or the Mathers-Dysart bill, either will be vetoed," the gov ernor said. This statement by the governor strengthened a belief held by many, i that the main thing the governor is driving at is power to apt<oint all em ployes. This could lie done under hi* executive council plan or under the existing form of government. "I think the code is better than either of the two plans suggested by the legislature," the governor as serted.
