Santa Fe, Feb. 9.--The house set
new pace this afternoon by dispos-
ing of nine bills, passing eight meas
ures and ditching one. Possibly the
act Of most general interest was the
last one to be passed--house bill So,
by Mr.. Veal, TO amend sections 4 and
IS OF chapter 10 of the laws OF 1918.
The act provides for a license fee OF
so cents per horsepower per annum
on automobiles, in lieu of all other
taxes now levied on automobiles. the
proceeds to be turned back into the
treasures of those counties whence
they originated to be expended on
highways.
Mr.. Martinez fought the measure
bitterly, and resorted to filibustering
tactics. finally making a motion to ad-
journ, but this failed, and the bill was
passed by vote of IS to g.
OF much Importance also is the
passage of house bill ID. by Mr.. skeen,
for the organization, management and
cooperation of agricultural, viticul-
tura and horticultural non-profit CO.
operative associations. The bill Is
modelled after the California and
Florida laws, and is to prevent extor-
ton now charged by middlemen.
