League Plan to Pass Local Option Bill
Early.

The Anti-Saloon League in last
weeks American Issue, its weekly
official organ, outlined a plan for
passing the local option bill early in
order to get 1t out OF the way OF 9th
or legislation. III proposes To save
the time usually spent i'm waiting for
the appointment Of committees by
not sending the local option bill to
the Temperance Committee at all,
on the ground that the bill having
been before the state for four years
fg 20 well understood and 10 perfect
that reference to committee f. not
necessary, for any amendment offer
ed by the committee would have to
be fought out on the floor anyhow.
The League gets around the two
thirds vote necessary to suspend the
rules by proposing that the measure
b. considered by the entire House in
Committee OF the whole, which only
requires "a majority, and ii can then
90 on the calendar and be open to
amendment on second reading the
same al III 1t had come from an ordI-
nary committee
The League also suggests that since
It IL impossible To carry To Annapolis
all the people who are interested, ii
will hire the Lyric for a hearing and
the entire House can occupy the
stage and the rest or the space can be
equally divided between the friends
and the opponents Of the bill, and
each side be given an hour and half
of time to present its case. The ar
ticle also calls attention to the fact
that last time very little business was
done until local option was gotten
out Of the way and that al the matter
Is bound to come up anyhow, the
sooner 1T is disposed on the better for
every other interest
It further says that II the Demo-
Gratis In control OF the Legislature de-
lay action on the bill the Republicans
will get most Of the credit when 1t Ia
finally passed and the question ID
likely to come up i'm the next legisla-
tive campaign on the issue of pro-
tecting it,whereas IL Democratic leg
islature passes it promptly and "a Re
publican governor signs II both sides
will be entitled to credit and the local
option bill will permanently disap-
pear Gid disturbing issue.
