The'General Assembly
. Raleigh, Mar. 4. March is hero and
Spring, i just around the corner and
no revenue till is yet farthe Legislature.-
Promise is made that it will
arrive this week, and probably that is
true, but then the fight will just be
gin. The House will go into a com
mittee of the whole and fake np the
bill section by section. When that is
completed, bill will - be put on jte
readings. The Constitution requires
that it pass three separata readings
on three separate days. Then it will
go to the Senate, which will go into
a committee of the whole to take it up
section, as the House did,' and when
, nnally a bill is agreed on, it wilt be
put on its readings for three separate
days. Then the differences will have
to be ironed out in a conference com
' mittee, and if material changes are
made, the bill will have to be put on
its reading!' again ' in both houses.
Then the appropriations bill will have
to be fitted to the RevenueJill. ..
There is this difference between the
revenue and the appropriations bill.
The latter does not have to be read
on separate days, or rather it 'doesnt
Jiave to be voted on three separate
days. It may be passed through all
its readings on a single day. As a
matter of fact it will take several
days in each house for the appropria
tions bill. The Legislature will be
lucky if it gets through by April 15.
This is a far cry from the old days
when the Legislature finished up its
work the first week In' March. The
long sessions ; of the last several
years have fed up the people on the
dilly-dallying. They want action now,
But there doesnt seem to be the
leadership in the Legislature that can
get things done, It. meanders along,
taking things easy, with the hope
that it can get through some time in
the Spring.
The revenue bill isn't the only
worry the Legislature has. The Hill
liquor control bill is in the Senate,
However, that will not hold up the
revenue bill as the House can take up
the latter while the Senate discusses
liquor. As reported to the Senate,
the Hill liquor control bill was to all
practical purposes dead -as the Senate
judiciary committee reported it '"with.
out prejudice." This simply meant
that a majority of the committee
was against the bill, but as it would
take two-thirds majority to get the
bill off the unfavorable calendar,
they did not want to kill the bill that
way. As it stahds now,r it, can be
passed by a "majority vote. That is
the meaning of the "without preju
dice" report,, As reported to the
Senate, the Hill bill provides for a
referendum. As one was just held a
little more than a year ago, the ma
jority of the Legislature opposes
another, so soon afterwards. So
Senator Hill has changed his bill. Now
he proposes local option, that is he
would let each municipality decide
whether or not it will have a liquor
store. This is the same as the old
dispensary system except that the
State and not the county would be in
charge of the stores. Strong opposi
' tion has already been expressed to
such a proposaL -
. As evidence of how strongly the
people are thinking about the propos
al to repeal Prohibition, the Rev. H.
L. Arnold, of Raleigh, prayed that the
Legislature not cause the : State "to
sin" by passing the Hill bill. Senator
, Hill was on his feet as soon asthe
prayer was ' finished to protest that
the Minister, Jiadtaadi'poUUeati
speech. The preacher never batted
an eye. He said that he had "prayed
over the matter the night before un
til after midnight and that he was
, only doing what he thought was his
duty, There the incident ended, but
..it served to show how strongly the
v: people think about this thing. Those
onnosinc reneal I of Prohibition are
" vigorous.' -Those proposing repeal
have not 'been so vigorous. So far
they have made little progress. .
As was expected the Joint Finance
committee voted by a large majority
The House showed .which way the
wind is blowing by voting down the
rlalmer bill for stronger beer by a
larger majority, but the leaders of the
4 majority were caught napping, jiney
, forgot to put on the "clincher, as it
is known In the Legislature, oy nav-
! fog one of their number to move to
' reconsider and then tabling that mo
tion. By doing that, it would nave
reauired twct'...'.Is vote to bring
the bill back to the floor. , ,
This is an instance of how a vigorous
leadership might have pressed for ac
tion and haye had the hill reported
out weeks ago. '
The Legislature has another nrob-
lem on its hands: There, Ja strong de
mand for reduction in automobile li
cense taxes. ' ThousandsNof automo
biles are now under shelter because
their owners havent the money to
buy the license tags. They are de
manding that , the Legislature do
something about it, but holders of
highway bonds are equally vigorous
in demanding that the State stand by
Its implied contract to continue re
venue at such a point as to insure
payment of the bonds. Tarn Bowie
has a bill to divert one cent a gallon
of the gasoline ' sales tax for the
counties, but he hasn't made' much
headway yet.
. The Legislature has a difficult time
getting any legislation through. It
finally decided to stand, by a new
automobile driver's license law, but
not until .many members had ex
pressed strong dissatisftcteion. There
was a strong demand for a law com
pelling vaccination of dogs to prevent
epidemics of rabies, and after much
backing and filling the Legislature
finally passed the bill. But a bill
providing for vaccination of infants
against diptheria was so amended
that it was withdrawn. The Legisla
ture also finally voted to let beauty
parlor operatives have the right to
name members of their examining
board. The "Senate, killed without
ceremony a bill to reduce the number
of magistrates and te place them on a
salary basis.
