HE follbwing pages supply information respecting the different Tstates and indicate sources from which additional data may bie obtained. They are intended to furnish concisely an over-all survey of the government of each.state—its elective officials;' the composi­ tion of its supreme court, and of its commissions oh interstate cooperation; the number of its legislators, their terms and pplitical. affiliacions; its adminiStra.tiY.e. officials; its nickname, motto, song, bird, and flower; summary state statistics; a condensation of those services performed by its legislative-reference bureau; the contents of its state manual; and the activities of its state defense agency. In each case, the material has been double checked by officials with­ in the state reported upon. '..„., Financial statistics are given for all states. The .figures were fur- nished^by the states and-by the U, S. Blireau of the Census, which coordinates data from states to compensate for variations in termin­ ology and record procedures, thus rendering the figures more nearly comparable. .
