Spector would work detrfment to the real interests of the child labor move. ment. creating rivalry that would not be judicious.,
 Would Affect Chila Labor.
 Mir. Pitts of Perry endorsed what had been said by Mir. John. He want ed nothing placed in that bill or any other that would stand in the way of the child labor bill. or that would in- terfere with the enforcement of that law. after 1t was placed on the statute books A double system of espionage. he thought, would create a condition where the opponents of the child labor was being interfered with, and thereby work up a sentiment for a future re- peal of the law.
 Mir. Foster declared he had no de- sire to have the inspection of cotton mills included in his bill, which had an entirely different purpose, and that he had moved concurrence in the amendment merely because he feared that without such action, because of the late day, the bill. which was an important one, might fail for lack of time.
 Mir. Pitts of Perry again spoke, op- posing the amendment to the bills cov- ering much the same ground as before. He could see no reason for such pro- vision.
 Mir. Bloch of Wilcox thought. inas- much as the Legislature proposed to enact a real child labor law, the jail inspector should not be burdened with visits to the cotton mills. He objected to concurrence in the amendment.
 The vote was taken at the conclu- sion of his speech, and the House re- fused to concur in the amendment by vote of 3S to 90.

 The amendments proposed by tho Senate to the judges salary bill, rais- ing the proposed increase in salary from 5000 and $3.200 to s3,500, were adopted with little or no discussion In the up- per body, and were rescinded. after the House had refused to concur with no more trouble than they were first adopted.
 But when they reached the House. the debate was long and tiresome. over a dozen speeches being delivered on one side or the other the discussion being begun in the morning session and lasting we'll into the afternoon.
 AS soon as the effect of the proposed amendments to the salary bin had been explained by Chairman John of the Judiciary Committed, who moved to concur fin the amendments, MT Lacy of Walker interposed an objection.
 Amendment Is Turned Down.
 A long discussion of the ability and worth of the judges by the adherents of the measure. and of the merits of a policy of economy by its opponents. followed Those who opposed the bill were Messrs Lacy of Walker. Buiger of Tallapoosa, Pitts of Perry, Kornegay of Dallas, Lovelady Of Jefferson and Lee of Etowah. while the supporters of liberal policy in dealing with the judiciary were Messrs. John of Jeffer- son, Hoffman of Mobile, Steagall of Dale and Jenkins of Baldwin.
 The roll call on concurrence In the Senate amendments raising the salary of the judges was then taken. result ing in a refusal to concur by vote of 32 to 51 ,as follows:

 As soon as the result was announced, MT. John moved the appointment or conference committed. but his motion was lost, the majority preferring to wait for the Senate to recede from its position Later in the afternoon. word was received that this had been done. the upper house having passed the bill as 1t came to 1t originally.
 Etowah County Bill Up.
 The Senate amendments to House Dill No. IA. a local temperance bill. apply ing to Etowah County, were the last of three to be taken up. The bill pro vides for prohibition in the county, ex- cept at the dispensaries at Gadsden and Attalla. and the Senate amendment made the provisions effective only after an election.
 MT. Lee of Etowah made the state- ment that both the Representatives from Etowah were elected on that issue and the Senator was defeated in hls home county on the same issue. He moved that the House refuse to con- cur in the amendment, and this was done hy a unanimous vote, 67 to O.
 MT. Lee at once moved for confer- ence committee on the measure to confer with a like committee from the Senate. and Messrs. Lee of Etowah, Smith of Etowah and Weaver or Blount were so named.
