Special to The Washington Herald.
Richmond, Va, March Il - Charges
brought against the management of the
Catawba sanatorium last night by Senator
NOEL. Republican. from Lee, was the
chief topic of the legislature to-day.
The weI-known Republican was recog-
nized this morning on the floor. and an
nounced that he wanted it distinctly I'M
derstood that he made no charges of dis
honesty against the health board, either
individually or collectively He simply
claimed mismanag cement. He did not like
the location Of the sanatorium. The de-
bate lasted three hours, after which the
senate passed the appropriation, prac-
tically ignoring Senator Noelfs charges.
In considering the general appropriation
bill, the house to-day raised the finance
committee over s5O.0OO-that is TO say. 1t
exceeded the recommendations Of the
committee by that amount.
It raised the 1919 appropriation for State
aid TO roads by szJ.0O0, and did the same
with schools. II increased the State Ii
brary $500. Then it reduced the sinking
funds from s125.00 to $4,000 the only
reduction made. The sum of 5000 was
allowed for the Office of military records.
while a Ike sum was allowed for counsel
to aid in the litigation Of various State
bureaus-a lawyer. when needed, to be
selected by the governor. chairman of the
corporation commission. and the attorney
general.
Ends in Compromise.
The fight to reduce the University OF
Virginia appropriation 10 per cent ended
tn a compromise between this item and the
public schools appropriation. the cause of
the dispute which last night resulted in
the cutting of the university appropria-
ton being that the public schools should
have as great consideration as the uni
versity.
The sum for primary schools was thus
raised from $4,000 TO S5O00o0. This sum
has attached provision as to the in
crease relative to sizes of schools and
amounts TO be distributed TO each.
The senate tonight concurred in the
house bin in relation to suppression of

The provisions OF the measure are more

forth in the columns of a newspaper.
Not q dissenting vote was recorded
against the measure.
Senate Makes Record,
The senate made a record to-day when
It completed the consideration OF the gen
eraI appropriation bin. after two and a
half hours OF consideration. Few changes
were made from the bill as presented.
Five thousand dollars were added 10 the
convict force road bill
All day was spent in the house on the
appropriation bill. One of the hottest
fights of the session was over the reten-
ton of tina Office of secretary OF Virginia
military records. BY vote of "a to 81
Il was decided to abolish the Office after
February Is. 1911. Confederate veterans
asserted on the floor that if the State is
to really get the records. a change must
be made. The efficiency OF the Office was
sharply criticised. After this time has
expired the work will be done by clerk
in the Office of the adjutant general
