TIRESONE READING
OF NEW CODE Goes ON
Senate Gets Through Two
and House One of the
Eight Volumes
PRINT NAMES OF ALL
REGISTERED VOTERS

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del, oct. 3.-Reading Of
the revised code report in Senate and
House was suspended yesterday af-
ternoOn until Monday morning, the
legislators deciding not to hold a ses-
sion today. When the reading clerks
in the Senate had finished reading
page 924 at o'clock everybody was
ready TO adjourn until Monday The
Senate had been i'm session until late
the night before. and some of the SEN
ators were up until about midnight
examining and comparing sections Of
the revised election and registration
laws. The reading Of the second vol
ume of the eight comprising the re-
vlsed code was finished by the Senate
yesterday.
Clerk William ID. Stoops, lawyers,
Senators and Chaplain Bailey have
assisted in reading in the Senate.
In the House the reading of the
first volume, comprising about 475
pages. was finished in the afternoon
Reading Clerk G. w. Hanson, Speak
er's Clerk James b. White and Bill
Clerk w. NJ. Hearne are alternating
in the reading.
So far but one change In the revised
election and registration laws has
been suggested, IL being a require
ment that a list of voters registered
on all five days, instead of on the
first three days, be printed for tho
information of the public and of the
party committees.
When the section specifying the
| duties of the attorney general had
been read in the House yesterday, the
/ Code Commissioners explained that
the Official copy contained 26 sec.
tions. whereas the printed indeS
showed only %. II was explained
that this was due TO The fact that
there we're only 20 sections when the
copy went to the printer, but after
that the legislation committee haC
directed the commissioners TO ado
a section fixing the duties OF the at
torney general in the matter of the
uniform fishing laws
The Revised Code Commissioners
report is printed on a special paper
the supply of which is in the posses
sion only of the Commission Any
change in a page of the code coulC
easily be detected unless the substi
tuition should be made with the Com
missions special paper.
Governor Miller was at the Stat,
House yesterday afternoon and con
ferred with some of the Assembly
men.
While some of the members ar
, anxious to enact the Revised Cod
as soon as possible and adjuorr
others are not burdened with busi
! ness or farming demands at this tim'
Z would be just as well satisfied {
= have the session continue the thirty
, day limit for which legislators ca
. receive pay for special sessions.
While the Senate is going at
, faster pace than the House, the foI
, more body eventually will have {
wait until the House finishes. for tn
House bill must be substituted for tn
Senate bill before IL can bo enacted
