Governor J. Howard Edmondson attempted to reform the (B) county commissioner system of postwar Oklahoma.
J. Howard Edmondson was the governor of Oklahoma from 1959 to 1963 and he was also a United States Senator. Moreover, Edmondson was part of the Democratic Party. While he governed Oklahoma, he proposed several changes. One of them was the reform of the county commissioner system: <u>he intended to form a constitutional highway commission and to reduce the control that county commissioners had over gasoline tax revenues</u>. In other words, he sought to reduce the power of county commissioners and to give more responsibilities to the State Highway Commission when it came to controlling funds.
I agree with the statement ignorance is bliss. There are just some things better left unknown. For example when and how we will die knowing that would cause us to live differently then we would have if we hadn't known we would try to avoid it. It relates to Faustus because he clearly disagree's strongly with that statement he decides to go after ultimate know;edge and wisdom no matter the consequences even if it means an eternity in hell.
