GOVERNOR TAWES: Yes.

JUDGE ADKINS: Well, what would be your views

3

relative to the State Treasurer, do you feel that is a

4

cumbersome --

5

GOVERNOR TAWES: I think the State Treasurer

6

should be appointed by the Governor, maybe with the advice

7

and consent of the Senate.

8

JUDGE ADKINS: But not like it now is, by the

9

Legislature in combined session?

10

GOVERNOR TAWES: Not the Legislature.

11

JUDGE ADKINS: All right, sir. I think one of

12

the major problems that is going to concern us, Governor

13

Tawes, is the extent to which we will go in recommending

14

what we on the Committee are calling a strong type execu-

15

tive. By that we don't mean any single individual, but

16

we mean the concentration of power in the hands of the

17

Governor as opposed to having it disbursed to boards and as

18

it now is. Do you have any feeling that the office of

19

Governor would be improved if more power were vested in

20

the Governor as opposed to having it disbursed through

21

boards, as it presently is?
