The article presents information about the book "Government in Illinois," by Walter F. Dodd and Sue Hutchison Dodd. The book is intended, apparently, for a textbook, although the authors intimate that it may also be read. To the average intelligent American the government of England, if perchance he sets himself to study it, appears to be a labyrinth, while the governments of Continental countries may be likened to a forest from whose depths one emerges more by accident than by design. People recommend this book to Illinoians as a convincing picture of the political quagmire from which they, in common with their fellows in many another state, need to be extricated.
