SESSION TO
EDED
SENATE REcoNSIDERS PREVIOUS
ACTION AND EXTENDS SES-
SION SIXTY DAYS.
THE GANH BILL IS TAKEN UP
Pass State Convict Bill and Amend
State Banking BilI-Pass State
wide Measures.

After refusing to adopt the House
concurrent resolution providing for
the extension of the. present session
of the legislature, and later refusing
to reconsider the vote by which the
resolution was defeated, the Senate
adopted the resolution, and 60-day
extension is now assured. The final
adoption of the extension of the
resolution by the Senate closed
hard fight. one of the hardest ever
fought over the question of extension
in any Arkansas legislature.
1t has probably been years since IN
terest was as intense in the ques-
ton of final adjournment. Until
the middle of Tuesday afternoons
session, when the Senate abruptly
voted to extend the session, after
having voted down the same pro-
posal, many people in close touch
with the situation did not think
the Senate would vote to extend.
Many others thought the Senate
would finally adopt the extension reso-
luton or a similar one, but they
did not expect such action until the
last minute. The sudden adoption
of the resolution came as surprise
to many.
A coincidence in connection with
the adoption of the extension reso-
luton is that almost imediately after
the resolution was adopted the Gam
bill, providing for statutory state
wide prohibition, was practically
killed, inasmuch as a submission
amendment to the bill was adopted.
1t was generally rumored that the
Senate would vote to adjourn sine
die Thursday because of the opposi-
ton to the Gam bill. In the same
afternoon the Senate voted not to
adjourn and then practically defeat
ed the Gam bill. The refusal to
adjourn was considered by some as
a victory to the Gam forces, but all
glory was taken away when the bill
was amended almost Immediately ln
The majority of the legislators
took the extension as a matter of
fact and there was but little COM
ment on the subject After the Sen
ate had refused to extend the session
in the morning, legislators gathered
about the regular meeting places and
assuming mournful expressions, bade
each other goodbye. Sorry we
couldn't be together longer" and
"Well, here's hoping they don't go
too far into that record of yours in
your next campaign" were among
the remarks heard on every side.

LOEB AFTER UNION MAN
Collector of Port of New York Resents
Insinuation in Labor Paper and
Editor Will Apologize.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. IL
Court proceedings by William Loeb, Jr.,
collector of the port of New York, are
said to hang over the head of local
labor leader. Mr.. Loeb has written to
Samuel De Nedrey, editor of local
trades union paper, protesting vigorous
~ against recent article in the paper
stating that Mr.. Loeb contemplates APP
pointing Charles A. StiIlings, former
public printer, to a position of trust III
the New York customs service, and
which concluded with the question,
"Who was at the head of the audit
system|'
1t is understood Mr.. Loeb took of
tense at what he believes to be a yelled
insinuation that he was interested in
the audit system which was inaugurated
at the government printing office by Mr..
Stillings, and which, ultimately, was re
sponsible primarily for the resignation
of Mr.. Stillings as public printer Mr..
Loeb intimates that it is his intention
to carry the matter into the courts.
Mr.. De Nedrey says he was absent
from the city when the article appeared
in his paper, and does not know how it
got into print. In the next issue of his
paper he says there will be an explana-
ton which in his opinion will satisfy
Mr.. Loeb. IF it does not" he added,
Il shall govern myself according to cir
cumStanceS."
