We believe that justice should bo free, and to that end we pledge ourselves to widen the benfits the debtors' court so that it may be used by a larger section of the community and that the counties to remove the power of wealth in their, courts in shielding crime may, upon majority vote, provide for. a public defend er as well as. a public px'osecutor.

We favor a poll tax on every voter, to be emitted only by the appearance of the voters name on on the voting poll books except in cases of sickness or absence "from the state; this tax to be applied toward the cost of elections. We demand the authorization by law for municipal ownership of all public utilities. 'We favor a law authorizing the state to issue insurance at cost plus a reasonable additional charge on premiums for the purpose of building up a substantial reserve fund which fund shall be loaned on realestate security wholly within the state at a reasonable rate of interest. We favor the enactment of national legislation to provide for the conservation and impounding of the flood waters flowing through the great plains country into a. national system 'of lakes and reservoirs and thus aiding irrigation in the plains country and at the same time supplement insr the work of flood prevention in the lower Mississippi valley where millions of dollars have been spent for that purpose.
