PAGE TWO HOUSE’S MAJORITY FOR VOTEREFORM But Two-Thirds Vote To Take Bill From Unfav orable List Fails Dali? Dispatch Bureau. In the Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, March 191—Advocates of ; election law reforms mustered a ma jority upon a roll call vote in the House Thursday, but the majority not i being two-thirds nothing tangible was accomplished except to get a black and white record which cannot be wiped out or explained away. Necessity for a two-to-one margin came from an unfavorable report by the elections law committee upon the bill embodying practically all the re commendations of the Democratic FREE PREMIUMS Save the coupons given with every 25c cash purchase at this store and get a Free Premium.

ANTI-BANK NIGHT BILL IS DEFEATED Dally Dispatch Rure:m, In the Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, March 19. The effort made by Senator Ed G. Flannagan, of Greenville, Pitt county, to pass a bill prohibiting moving picture theaters in the State from holding “bank nights,” at which prizes ranging from $25 to $250 in cash are given away to the holders of the “lucky” ticket num bers, failed by an overwhelming vote in the Senate Thursday. But it result ed in producing the most highly en tertaining session the Senate -has held so far this year and in bringing about a “true confessions” meeting which sound more like a Methodist prayer meeting than a session of a law-mak ing body. Senator Flannagan maintained that the “bank nights” held by some mov ing picture theaters, are not only de trimental to the morals of the younger people by developing a taste for gam bling, but that they have become nuisances by attracting so many peo ple to the towns and theaters on these “bank nites” as to impede if not ac tually b?oclt traffic. Another senator asked Senator Flannagan if these crowds were ret composed of good people, and the Senator from Pitt re plied. “Vos they arc* —I have been in them some times. But just the same, I think these bank nights should be stopped.” In the course of the discussion of Senator Flannagan’s motion, some senator mentioned the fact that a good many of the senators had been given season passes to most of the Raleigh moving picture theaters and hinted that this might be a reason for the opposition to Senator Flannagan’s motion to recall the anti-bank night bill from the unfavorable calendar and pass it. There was an almost immediate scramble on the part of senators who had received these complimentary passes from theater lobbyists to “con fess” they had received these passes —among these being Senator Flan nagan—but to say emphatically that the acceptance of these passes had in no way influenced their views with regard to the motion picture theaters or to “bank nights.’’ After many “confessions”, much apologizing, laughter and fun, a vote was taken on the Flannagan motion, defeating it. Sitdowners Still Occupy Auto Plants (Continued from r*age One.) arrest of 6,900 sitdown strikers in eight Chrysler automobile plants were issued by Circuit Judge Allan Camp bell, but Sheriff Wilcox said he could make no attempt to eject the strikers until he got 600 extra deputies or the aid of the National Guard. The strikers continued to defy a Court injunction ordering them to evacuate. The dispute over exclusive bargaining rights for the United Au tomobile Workers Union has kept more than 55,000 Chrysler workers idle. At Detroit fire departments of two suburbs were fighting a fire early to day at the Chrysler Corporation’s main Dodge automobile plant in Ham track. The factory is one of those occupied by sitdown strikers, about 2,500 U. A. W. A. members having held the plant since March 8. Improvements Bill, For $2,344,000 Sum, Becomes State Law (Continued from Page One.) Hobbs, of New Hanover, started work on a compromise bill to regulate wine making in the State. The House revived measures it had killed which would require bonds of all peace officers, provide for pay ment of teachers in 12 equal monthly installments, and clarify tax fore closure laws. The conference group on the school machinery act had not reported this afternoon. A compromise bill to reduce the cost of automobile license plates was up for second reading in the House today as the General Assembly work ed toward sine die adjournment by tomorrow night. The House, which had tried to cut the cost from 40 to 30 cents per 100 pounds, concurred last night in a Sen ate amendment to reduce the cost to 35 cents. The Senate, meanwhile, ag reed to a House section lowering the hundredweight tax on contract haul ers from $1.35 to $1.15. An obstacle to adjournment this week was seen in the status of the so called “Ickes bill’, authorizing countes and municipalities to issue revenue bonds to match PWA bonds. It has yet to be taken up by the Senate, and passage would require readings on three separate days.

It provided for a work able, efficient method of tobacco acre age control and every one except a few irreconcilables conceded that it took care of the “little man” (a chap who developed an enormous group of defenders). i ———— Chief Justice Hughes Might Testify At Court Hearings (Continued from Page One.) ponents of the President’s program, the committee voted to ask the court clerk to furnish information on the condition of its docket from 1925 to date. Proponents of enlarging the court unless justices over 70 retire have charged congestion of cases and an increasing burden of litigation has hampered the tribunal in recent years. William Lewis, director of the Ame rican Law Institute, told the commit tee today the President’s program ac tually was “conservative.” Inaction in the court situation, he said, would Finest Quality MEATS And Very Best Service.
