ted by the minority upon the plan .sug-

a general or public act based upon that

White, as one of the members of the
committee, moved that the minority re-
port be tabled until the majority could
find time to submit it's report ant
promised that this would be done by
Monday of next week.
! Carter stated that he had noticed in
one of the morning papers that thai
paper repudiated the bid credited tc
that paper as submitted by the print
ing committee yesterday and asked, Il
the chairman of that committee hat
received any notice to that effect. He
was informed that such a notice ha6
not been received. Carter then stated
that he thought the attention of tha
committee should be called to this, as
it was possible that if that paper was
visited again they would be willing t
submit a lower bid and do the worl
cheaper than it was at present cost
ing the Senate.
