 The house adopted the report unan- imously. and it is more than likely d conference will be had between committees of both houses.
 In the afternoon the house read for the third time and finally passed the insurance code, but not without objection on the part of Graham of COchiSe. Graham succeeded III spreading his protest. upon the jour- nal in the following form:
 My protest against the passage of this bill is not directed so much against the substance of the bill as it is against the method by which the bill was brought before the house for final passage. The bill was not read when before the com mittee on the whole house and no opportunity for amendment present. ed itself. Therefore l vote no.'
 The bill was up for consideration by the committee of the whole on Wednesday and upon statement by the acting chairman of the com mittee of banking and insurance that the same bill had been before the house three times before in pre- vious sessions and had approved it Very little consideration was there fore given to the bill. It is said that during this time MT. Graham was engaged in important committee work elsewhere and did not know the bill had been recommended fol passage by the committee.
