Senator Chillingworth then asked
that consideration Of the bill and the
amendment submitted bv Mnkekau bel
deferred until two O'Clock. and that
the clerk be instructed TO furnish each
member of the Senate a typewrittcn
copy of the amendment. Chilliugworth
decared~that he wanted to know the
ground before deciding the merits of
the ease. Mccarthy then withdrew ht'
motion and seconded that Of Chilling
worth. and the postponement until two
o o'clock was indorsed on unanimous
vote.
Senator Fairehld asked for informa.
tion. He said that the Senate should
know the exact amount of money due
how much to Republicans and how
much to Democrats.
Senator Mccarthy said that was a
matter for the consideration of the Su.
pervisors--all that the Legislature was
called upon to do was to pass the en-.
abling act and leave the rest to the
judicial consideration of the City
Fathers.
Fairchild was apparently satisfied
with the explanation. The Senate then
passed House Bill No. 20 on second
reading and adjourned to 9 o clock.
Mayor in Senate.
There was gathering of the clans
in the Senate chamber before the af.
| ternoon session convened. Mayor Fern
and Il. NJ. Watson, the Democratic
leader, appeared and discussed the
! merits and demerits of the all impor.
tant measure bearing the official title
| of House Bill No. 9s. When the House
was called to order President of the
Senate Smith escorted Mayor Fern to
chair beside that of the presiding
officer where the Mayor was an inter.
ested spectator of the proceedings in
connection with House Bill No. 9S.
When the Senate was called to order
Senators Fairchild and Chillingworth
were absent and the Supervisors en-
abling act was laid aside for a few
minutes. A communication from the
House was received stating that the
Senate amendment to House Bill No.
90 had not been concurred in and nam
| ing Representatives Sheldon, Douthitt
and Furtado as members of confer
ence committee. Senators Knudsen,
Chillingworth and Mal1ekau will be the
members of the upper house, on the
committee.
Notification was received from the
House that the Senate amendments to
House Bill No. 81 had been con.
cured in.
House Bill No. 81, relating to edu.
cation. was received in the Senate and
passed first reading by title. House
Bill No. 80 was disposed of in similar
fashion.
| senator hnuuSeH, CudlTlldH VI tHt
Judiciary Committee, stated that there
was apparently an error in the House
Concurrent Resolution No. IA and that
the judiciary Committees pe'usal
showed that it concerned the House
solely. He suggested that it be re-
turned to the clerk of the House, which
was done.
