ed. SB 35, enlarging the power of
: town policemen to permit them to ca"-
ry prisoners to and from jails outside
. the corporate limits and :o attend

stitutional amendment to raise the
county general fund tax limit from 15:

mitted byHB 273 to retire before age
80 on either a deferred or immediate
allowance. Os interest both to state
and local officials is HIB 274 which
sets up the machinery by which em
ployees of the state and any off its po
litical subdivisions could be brought

Election Laws
Sb 109, calculated to abolish use
of the absentee ballot in general elec
tions for all except service men and
disabled veterans, is.having a difficult
time. It is now in the nands of a
subcommittee for study; chances for
a favorable report are poor. If HB
266 passes, second primaries would be
eliminated where the leading candi
date receives as much as 45% of the
total vote in races for congressional
and state constitutional offices.
