would take the best girl he had in his
Office at least fourteen days to pre-
pare.
Mr. HESELTON of Kennebec: Mr.
President. will state that all desired
was to ascertain whether we would
receive this information during this
session of the Legislature, or whether
1t would go over to the next session of
the Legislature. The information
given by the Senator from Aroostook,
gives ne the impression that it may
be received during the last part of the
present session of the Legislature: and.
II that is true. l shall prepare an
Order to furnish the Insurance Com
missioner with abundant help SO that
he can give us this information in
order that We may act upon 1t during
this session of the Legislature.
Mr.. PUTNAM: l would say. Mr.
President, that I have no personal
interest i'm the matter except with a
casual talk with the Commissioner
asked him when this information was
to be given to the Senate and he said:
From the progress his clerk had made
then that it would take at least ten
think it will be furnished during the
coming week; and have no desire to
DELAY the Senate Order at the present
time.
Mr.. HESELTON: OF course, Mr.
President. appreciate that this motion
is not debatable. but the information
coming from the senator from Aroos-
took leads me to understand that his
information is obtained only from
casual conversation which he had with
the Commissioner. There can be no
harm then in ordering the Secretary to
inquire of the Commissioner ana
obtaining 4 definite answer as to the
length of time we may be obliged TO
wait for the Commissioners to act.
Therefore I trust that the Order will
have a passage.
Mr.. SEWALL Of SasadahoC: Mr.
President, I know, in fact, that the
Senator from Kcnnebec wishes to act
fairly, and would not have mentioned
it, but the Insurance Commissioner
! suppose because | came from ms
county-statcd to me just what he ana
to the senator from Aroostook; ana,
perhaps having spoken to me in that
way, | should be dcrelict II | did not
give that information to the Senate.
l should be very glad to vote with
the Senator from kcnnebec to give the
Insurance Commissioner all the clerk
hire he needs, because l agree with
him that the Order is Il useless one
unless we are to have report upon it
in time to act at this session. and
wish the senator from Kcnnebec would
introduce the other Order and with
draw this one. | sympathizc with the
purposes but with the real difficulty,
and the Insurance Commissioner nav
ing made a statement to me. should
feel bound to vote with the Senator
from Aroostook
Mr.. HESELTOE: Mr.. President If
may be pardoned for speaking again on
this matter-The purpose OF the in
PRODUCTION of the Order may have been
accomplished by the mere presentation
of the order and that is we have SOME
knowledge now how long we may be
Obliged to wait for this information
and taking into consideration the
statements of the Senator from Aroos-
took and the Senator from Sagadahoc.
] believe the result worked to accom-
plish has been effected and therefore /
from Aroostook that the Order lie upon
the table.
The Senate thereupon voted that the
Order be tabled
