Subject	Ohio Government; Presidents and Politics; Governors
Place	Columbus (Ohio); Franklin County (Ohio); Dayton (Ohio); Montgomery County (Ohio)
Description	The text of Governor James Coxâ€™s message to the General Assembly of Ohio, delivered on Jan. 14, 1913, is 36 pages and included in a booklet of his addresses and proclamations. The Democratic Cox (1870-1957) was the first Ohio governor to serve three full terms; he held the position from 1913 to 1915 and again from1917 to 1921. In this message, he presents a 56-point program of progressive reform. Dedicated to progressivism, he led the legislature in enacting his proposals, which upheld progressive measures such as the direct primary, the initiative, and the referendum. In addition, Cox reformed the state administration as well as judicial and court procedures. His program also included social and humanitarian acts that improved, for example, mothersâ€™ pensions and workersâ€™ compensations. In his second administration, with the United Statesâ€™ entrance into World War I, Cox worked to improve labor disputes and civilian morale.
