feel most interested in are briefly
outlined below: They have merely
been introduced and it is a con-
lecture how many of them will
finally become law:
Amending the revised CODE

Amending constitution to provide
board OF pardons.
To reduce elevator storage charges
from two cents to one and a hail.
Providing for the filing OF chattel
mortgages with town and city clerks.
