Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Story of the Session of the California Legislature of 1921 Thirteen years ago the writer published a review of the work of the 1909 Legislature, showing the voting records of the members of that session on test roll-calls. Similar reviews were published for the sessions of 1911, 1913 and 1915.They were discontinued during the war period, 1917 and 1919. The review of the 1909 session was written to show the deadening influence of the so-called Southern Pacific machine - the political alliance between the corporation and vice-exploiting interests - upon all that is worth while in the State. In the thirteen years that have intervened, California has seen that machine broken and scattered, and the wishes of the people of the State finding, for a time at least, expression at the polls and in legislative bodies. The year 1921 saw the influences which had been defeated in 1910, seeking under new names and new leadership, to overthrow the gains California had realized from their defeat. This review of the 1921 session is written to show what these defeated influences attempted at Sacramento last year, that the voter this year may at least know how this or that legislator stood at the line-up between the vice-corporation influences on the one side, and the influences of good citizenship on the other. There was no partisan expression in the 1909 Legislature; there was no partisan expression in the Legislature of 1921.
