By PERCY H. SCOTT. (U. P . SUtff Correspondent.) ALBANY, Nov. 19. U.P. When the 192N K< a»Um o f the legislature gets under v^ay ther.: will be be- tween 7 5 and 100 billK to more nearly complete reorganization o f the governmelnt, ready for action if the reorganizjatioii conunittee o f the legislature has approved them. A force of five bill drafters and *lx stenographers i s now engaged in drawing urj the bills, which will perfect four of the largest depart- ments o f the *tatir-~Tax, Conserva- tion and CharltieK. Old L*ws Scrapped. While the plans o f the reorgan- ized government have been In ex*' istenee two years and the system ; haa been i n operation nearly .a 1 year, there are many details still to j be woilced out. and tjie Legislation, now being drawn up i s to take care: of some of thfm. All o f the rid laws which cori- j eerned the departments affected; have been KoJie over, and dozens ; of them Mill b^» scrapped, some hav-| ing been enacted as far back aa iK9r, An rntlreW n«*w sytiUim of policy in relation to employees o f the state, and particularly the head of a department, is being written Into the new laws. This system places all i>ower and repeonsibiHty upon | program mark, accord ing to Roy K. Hall, division engine- | or. The year has been aa exception- ' ally bu»y one. and the amount of ; work carried to completion has I been nearly double that o f 1926. ! when $1,722,000 o f construction was done. i I This i s a wcord year of work for | the division that haa been busy ! \ with an exteu8lv« program o f oon-S [Mruction as well a * reconstruction 1 in the oountle* o f St. Lawrence, Jefferson, Franklin, Clinton and Lewis. , l n addition to the amount spent |on road construction, $742,000 was j expend, d on general maintenance,, i comprising widening road», build-, I ii.g fences, repair work, etc., so the I total amount expended runs well, j up toward the $4.000,000 mark. I This year the total amount o f Iwoik under construction represent-1 led a cost o f abow $6,000,000. There j J were 8 0 3-4 miles o f new construc- tion under contract, representing a ! contract price o f $3.S18.000 and 4f. 32 miles of reconatruction, all concrete, that represented a con : tract price of $1,788,000. In addition there wcie 23 bridge contracts this: year representing $507,000. Mr. Hall outlined the work con- templated fcr next year. In Jef- ; ferson county no new construction' is panru d for next year. There are two large reconstruction jobs, how- ever. One o f theee i s on the Clayton ; road and will involve about 6.8 miles of reconstruction from the' Watertown line to the bridge at I>e-1 pauville, taking i n both sides o f the concrete stretch. It i s expected the road from Phil-' ad**pnia to Antwerp, 6.8 miles, will be mxmatructed under the 1928 This is a narrow, curving! On Kheriffand .Jail: Mis,?«. Woodfwk, Saaferd, *V>iLi*t, F . H .

Under old procedure the title of nearly all positions i n a department wore giv- en, and the duties were defined.
