Efforts are being made to reduce
the appropriation to complete Capitol
Park Extension from 100000 to
100000
The bill was due to come out of the
House appropriations committee last
night, but was held up and it is inti-
mated about the Capitol that it may
be reduced tonight. 1t is said that
unless it is reduced in committee the
Governor may have to cut it along with
others.
Members of the appropriations COM
mlttee are being urged to report out
the bill as presented, as unless that is
done the completion of the park will
be delayed two years.

day that the commission had been able

The commission to-day took over
six more properties in the Park Ex-
tension zone.
w ora went along the line in the
Legislature to-day that the Gov

state of the revenue makes their fate
precarious. If the appropriations COM

bridge bills to save the Governor en-

People connected with the Legisla-
ture to-day analyzed the vote on the

of the negative vote attracted much
attention and that a policy of revenge
on the Governor had been tried out
was the general belief.
