Your Judiciary Committee to whom
House Bill Number 144 was referred
respectfully report:
"The object of the bill is to provide
for the voting of qualified elector who
has failed to register.
I'VE believe the object of the bill Is
good one, but the provisions of the
bill are clearly contrary to the provi-
sions of the Organic Act, and the intro
ducer of the bill admits it.
I'VE therefore recommend that the
bill may be definitely postponed.
The report was adopted.
On the parts of the license bill the
Judiciary Committee reported defining
how licenses defaulted could be collect
| ed providing that growers of ava be
permitted to sell their product to deal
ers, providing that tobacco cannot be
