Jbvo of the latest acts "of the ex-,

to be paid by an increase in the pos-:

sum for North Crolina improvements.
The Associated Press reporting
1 Tuesday’s proceedings, says:
“While the house faced the end to
day with utter lack of fluster, there
was much confusion and acrimonious
debate in the senate chamber and the
( day’s session closed at 6:4.5 p. m,
with two ‘Tame ducks” locked iojcos
agreement over an omnibus pension
measure and blocking consideration
of any other matters.
During the day all farm aid legis
lation went definitely into the dis
card to join the Underwood Muscle
; Shoals' leasing bill, the
branch banking bill, a score or |nQre j
railroad measures of various kinds.;

There was an 11th hour effort in
the senate to put through a farn> bill
-rythe modified McNary-Haugheif, ex
port coloration proposak-Mbut
' four hours of debate, which, furnish- J
ed amusing and dramatic incidents
: for th’e crowds in galleries arid on* the"
floor, the-senate rejected the measure
69 t-q. 17. ' - -
j . -Many bills did get through and not
I a few were offered - there!
wasino postponement' of the schedule
and all must, die^fth: this * Congress. :
The house by an overwheiniing (
vote attached the public- builclings bill
as a rider to the deficiency measure,
only to -be forced'- later to cast it.!
aside when the senate sent the ap- 1
propriation bill back to ' conference j
with instructnone /to its managers
I to insist* against the inclusion of iiue i
«*ider. E
'r Before the house took ylie next to j
tae last legislative step , on the dc- \
ficiency bill, it was announced that'
the .senate would recede tomorrow at
10 a. m., from its original rider pro- j
posing an appropriation of $8,000,050 f
ror public buildings heretofore au- 1
thorized in 40 states. Such action j
would make the measure ready for l
trie President’s signature when he 1
goes to the capital before noon to 1
sign last minute enactments of ihe
Congress.
Before recessing at 7:15 o’clock this
evening until 10 a. m., tomorrow, the
house approved, 301 to 28, a resolu-,
tion expressing I ‘an earnest desire”
that the United States adhere to the
world court protocol. Senate action j
on this was ’ unnecessary and could
not have been obtained in any event
as that body has refused all session
to even consider the world con’"'

Other actions by the two hour is 4

sums asked by the various depart

than - twenty millions to fourteen. The
revenue conirtiittee then tried to find
how to raise' the 14 millions* but
could reach only 12 millions. Conse

. The session of the Legislature is'
drawing to a close. The constitutioii

as of the opinion that the session !

The appropr■■acion bill," -
ures given in - another column, but
about $2,000,000 short of the total
asiced • for by the Budget Committe'e,.
is going through with only a few
amendments. The chief cut as shown
in the table, are in the school equal?-
amendments. The cfaief cuts, as shown
zation fund, the aprepria tions to the*;
University, State College, and the
Woman’s College at Greensboro, and
the -sum to be applied to the pay
-1 ment of the deficit of the Morrison
administration. •- - - - - * :
An attempt was made to increase
the pension fund to $1,500,000, but
!ft was finally lecided that thev old
soldiers would have to da with a
million.
The Senate turned down an appro
priation for the duplication • of the
Canova statue of Washington wjhich
was destroyed by fire when the capi
tol was burned in 1831, but on the
-assurance of Senator R. O, Evercvt
that Gov. McLean, John Sprunt Hill,
and others, including* himself prob
ably, would pay all the work' should
cost above $2,000 the bill was pass
ed.
The bill to add two members to the
highway commisssion from each dis
trict was killed at Gov. McLean’s
suggestion.
Another McLean measure to pass
the Senate was that creating a de
partment of Conservation and Devel
opment to take the place of the Geo
logical The
Louse voted down a bilU requiring
j lawyers to have a high school educa
tion. ’ •
The speed limit of 35 miles an hour
| is on its way to becoming the law.
The emergency judge bill will pass
■as the Senate killed the "‘bill creat
ing four new judicial districts. Under
the emergency bill the Governor is
empowered appoint « lawyer to
I hold a term of court, the compensa
' tion. to be $l5O a week. ■>
Two of the biggest things of the
past, week were the passage of *Gov.
j McLean’s bill placing all collections -
| in the Revenue Department’s, hands ;
: and the Governor’s other .measure
• appoint a commission to standard- ’j
ize state salaries.
; ' s The Australian ballot law came i
much /nearer passing than was
thought possible, while a strong vote
was registered in favor of repealing
the’primary irw.
Tsie Braswell bill to permit mem
bers of the Cooperative Marketing
Associations to withdraw was killed
in short order, but another bill is in
; the hopper annulling "the right of the
I Associations to secure injunctions
j against ; ’thp sale oil open markets and
limiting’ the Associations to suits for
damage, and even a biIJL has’ been
suggested to give 51 per cent of the
Associations the privilege of disor
ganizing an Association.
Miss Alexander, the lone lady
member of the House, has introduced
a bill to give the governor the veto
power. Miss Alexander has been pro
lific of bills, introducing sixteen in
one day.
But it is simply impossible to sum
! up in a short article the hundreds of
measures introduced and the dispo
*sition of them, but we hops to secure
later for our readers a resume of the
Whole session.
