Des Moines, Sept. There will be
no extra session Of the legislature,
Governor Harding says. The governor
gave this - his final answer to Repre-
sentative II. W. F1enniken of Jones
county who has been working hard for
m extra session.
The governor has opposed from the
start. He does not believe there is any
needed legislation so pressing as to
make -Aeces.ary calling back the legis-
lature. He points to the experiences OF
other states when the lawmakers have
come hack to ahow that little has been
accommodates Alho often the sessions
have been long and costly.
Representative F1enniken took q poll
Of the legislators on his money draft
bill and ALSO on his extra session. He
presented to the governor figures to
show that forty-Gix members of the
house were In favor of the money draft
bill and fifteen members of the senate.
On the special session forty-f1ve mem
beers OF the house and sixteen members
OF tho senate were for it.
In Ills money draft bill the Jones
county representative hoped to devise
taxing plan which would assess all
citizens alike for funds for carrying on
the war.
says NJ Demand Apparent.
The governor pointed to these figures
and said that there was not consti-
tutional majority for the special session
and hence the poll did not reveal any
urgent demand for the session. He de-
clared further that no public demand
for the measure was apparent.
Members OF the legislature and other
political leaders here this week attend
inx the state fair declare that the war
has overshAdowed all other public gus
tiols in the interests Of the people and
that there Is but little talk of politics or
candidates in the primary next spring
for governor or other state officers.
1t Is generally predicted that the
election for constitutional prohibition
on Oct, Is Will result in victory for
the amendment.
