the majority Of your committee, and
concentrations:
First-We recommend that Senate
Bills No. IS and 1O2, amending article
ten, Also Senate Bill No. 107, be con-
sidered by the House of Representa-
tives and either adopted or rejected
for the reason that they have passed
the Senate and that they amend arti-
cles heretofore amended and do not
therefore conflict with any other con-
stitutional amendments.
Second-We recommend the passage
of Senate Bill 22S, amending article
eleven, concerning bonded indebted
ness"
Third-We recommend the passage
Of House Bill No. 155 or Senate Bill
No. p, which are duplicates and
amend article seven, allowing only
citizens to vote.
Fourth-We recommend the passage
of House Bill 149, amending article
six, concerning Supreme Court" also
Senate Bill No. 317, amending the
same article, concerning the district
attorneys and district judges.
Fifth-We recommend that In case
these foregoing recommendations
should all be adopted that all other
constitutional amendments should be
and must be defeated, but that in case
any one Of the foregoing amendments
which we have recommended be de-
feated, then that either Senator Tay.
lor's biennial election bill or the Parks
three-fourths jury bill be adopted.

RADIO Bijou Land and Irrigation Com

and one Chadwick whereby the last
two are to come Into possession of the
compnny's property. Curtis asks an
