KING BILL PASSED
Senate Puts 1t Up to the House to
Drive Out Insurance Companies

Little Rock, Feb. 24.-One of the
most memorable contests in the leSis
lative annals of Arkansas closed in
the senate at 6 o'clock yesterday ev-
ening when the King antitrust bill
unamended, passed that body by a
vote of 81 ayes to noes.
The real struggle was over the iudic
iary committee majority amendment
which proposed to eliminate the por-
companies. This was the main point
of contention. Delegations of business
men from various parts Of the state
appeared before the senate judiciary
committee and advanced arguments
against the insurance clause. insist
ing that as fire insurance was a
basis CT credit, the withdrawal OF the
companies doing business in Arkansas
would seriously injHre business.
throughout the state. Sena-
tor Killough was the introducer of the
amendment in the committee to strike
out the insurance clause. The contest
over this issue ON the floor of the sen
ate began last week and the matter
was debated eXhaustively.
Yesterday the battle was renewed
and when the noon hour was reached
the end was still to come. At the
afternoon session the discussion again
had the right of way and it was evil
dent that termination was to ensue
before adjournment for the day.
Intense interest was manifested and
the senate galleries and the lobby
were crowded with visitors, standing
room being at a premium. 1t was 4
O'Clock before vote on the amend
ment could be had. When the momen-
tOus hour arrived the calling Of the
roll was followed with breathless in
terest 1t was a close vote and the
result could not be foretold. Finally
the last name was called, the last vote
recorded. and the secretary handed the
ballot to President Pro Tenn Fletcher,
who announced the result-ayes 13,
noes 16.
