Raleigh, April I.—Both houses of the North /Carolina legislature are slated to haye busy sessions tonight as they begin their -T oth actual leg islative day and the 83rd day of the prehent session with meetings at eight o’clock. On the Senate docket are a flood of minor bills in addition to a House bill by Representatives Ervin, Scholl, Tonissen and others known as the photographers’ bill. The measure, drawn by the State Association of Photographers, would set up a board of self-government for that group and is aimed to eliminate the itinerant photographer. The measure passed the House only after a struggle, during which Representative Tam Bowie, of Ashe, who fought the bill, succeeded in amending it to apply only to towns with a population greater than 25,000. Another bill before the Senate would abolish the remnant of evidence re uired from males who apply for mar riage licenses. Introduced by Repre sentative Sparger, of Stokes, the bill slipped past the House easily. The measure is designed primarily for the benefit of the State’s 43 border coun ties who have practically lost all mar riage license business because North Carolina’s neighbor states have no re strictions. Also coming up for Sen ate approval or rejection is a bill which would restore the salary cuts suffered by superior court solicitors, (Continued on Page Five.) HENDERSON, N. C.
