LITTLE ROCK NEWS
EXTRA SESSION OF LEGISLATURE WILL NOT BE CALLED BY
 GOVERNOR.
CALLS ON ARKANSAS BANKERS
Conference to Be Held-Auditor Says Borrowing From Fund Would
 Be Unconstitutional

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock-It is now almost an as. sured fact that the Arkansas Legisl ture will not be called into extra ses- sion.
 Governor Hays has expressed him self as being strongly opposed to calling a session of the legislature
 q have said from the first time the subject was proposed that l have no intention whatever of calling an extra session of the legislature. This is still my intention. Under the circum- stances, l cannot see that any good can come from 1t, whereas much harm might result. have the plans in view that l hope can be worked out to take care of the expenses of the State charitable institutions, and the neces- sary expenses of the State govern ment"
 The main object in calling a ses- sion of the legislature would be to au- thorize the state officials to transfer money from the capitol fund into the A torney General Moose, in an opinion handed down. held that it would be un- constitutional for the legislature to try to divert a portion of one fund to some other fund, where such fund had been created by taxes for a speci fife purpose, as in the case of the state capitol fund. Such an act would be in violation of article l6. section H. of the state constitution. In the opin- ion of Judge Moose, all acts of former legislatures, whereby such transfers have been made. have been in viola, ion of the constitution.
 At a conference between Gov Hays and a number of local bankers plans were devised for call on the financial interests of the state in the interest Of the general revenue fund. It has been the plan of Gov. Hays for some time to present this matter to the Arkansas bankers and request their cooperation in relieving the dficit of the general revenue.
 It is estimated by Gov. Hays that at least s25U,000 will be required to run the states general expenditures be- tween this and the time for the col lection of the next state taxes. With deficit in the general fund it be comes imperative to take some step of remedial nature
 Gov. Hays idea is to secure advan- es from the banks over inc state in cluding the banks of the smaller cities at a nominal rate of interest, this loan to be repaid when the taxes come in
 A call for a general conference of the banking interest of the state for October 13 will be issued to decide on definite plans for revenue and to see just what the banks are willing to do for the state.
