BIG BILLS GOING ALONG

The end of the legislature of 1918 is
! in sight and it looks as though the
Senate would next week amend the
House resolution fixing May as the
date of adjournment to read May IS.
The action of the House to-day in
pushing through the appropriation
bills and the activity of the chairmen
| in framing the general appropriation
act indicates that the finish is not far
off and next week will see action all
along the line.
Monday night the child labor bill
will have its third reading in the Sem
ate and the people opposing the Gov
ernors plan will make their final on
slaught. 1t is freely predicted that
| the bill will pass as desired by the
Governor and that on Tuesday the cor
| porations committee will make some
amendments to the workmen's COM
pensation bills and that they will get
to a vote soon after. The plan is to
get the bills to the Governor about
{ May 10.
| Thus far Governor Brumbaugh has
given no sign about appointments, all
of the Tencr appointments having been
help up at his request and the public
service nominations being considered
as withdrawn. Opinion is that the
Governor will loosen up" the last
| week.
The amended automobile registra-
! tion bill, which increases automobile
| licenses to get money for road con-
struction, did not come out of the
! House committee in charge to-day, but
| is due Monday and will be fought.
The other revenue raising bills are not
in good shape, to be frank about it,.
| The manufacturing capital stock tax
bill has been sent to a crypt and the
stamp tax is dead. The four mill
bond tax does not look very robust.
II the revenue raisers fail the only
hope for money for road construction
will be to reduce the general appro-
priation bill and some of the others.
1t begins to look as though the
LEGISLATORS wanted the highway de-
partment to make bricks without
straw.
