as practicable the various industries, resources and activities of the state.
 Two New Sections Inserted
 Two new sections were inserted in the bill by MT. Lines; one authorizes the state council to form county coun- cilS the chairman of the board of su-~ pervisors of the county to be chair man of the council which is to consist of seven members. The other section provides for a survey of the state to ascertain the needs of Americanization. This is a copy of a section in the senate bill and differs from it only in that the appropriation for the expenses of the survey is $2,000 while the senate appropriation is $10,00O.
 After an emergency clause was ad- ded to the bill the committee voted to recommend it's enactment. A motion was then made to recommend the in definite postponement of House Bill 21 but no great interest was developed in the viva voce vote and the bill was al- lowed to retain it's place on the cal endar.
 Sabotage Bill Advanced
 The sabotage bill passed by the sen- ate the day before was advanced to second reading under a suspension of the rules and was referred to the com mittee. While a great deal of opposi ton to it is expected to develop in the house no occasion was offered in the proceedings for manifestation of it.
 The only completed legislation was the enactment of the bill extending the franchise to soldiers and sailors. That l bill was passed without a dissenting | vote.
 Capital Punishment Act. | It is probable that the senate will act | today on the house joint resolution for | a constitutional amendment to restore capital punishment. There was an in dication when it was called up yester- l day morning that it would be adopted l Though a majority of the senators are known to favor it, the judiciary com mittee some time ago went on record as opposing any measure not clearly within the governors call. Whether that decision of the committee would be applied to the resolution is uncer- tain; it was made in reference to leg islation, and numberless resolutions and memorials not even remotely re- lated to the call have been passed.
 But the judiciary committee evincet an unwillingness to consider the reso- lution and it was sent directly to the committee of the whole where some expression concerning it may be ex- pected today.
 The house anti-vagabond bill wa. sent to the judiciary committee. Tn, only other matter disposed of was patriotic resolution of Mrs. Marsi which was adopted.
 Consider Dairying Bill
 The whole afternoon session Of tn senate was spent in the committee o the whole in the consideration of tn, bill, creating the office of dairy com missioner and regulating the dairy in dustry. The same bill was under con sideration by the whole committee o the house in the latter part of the aft ernOon.
 Another matter which will engros the attention of the senate in the com mittee of the whole today is the re |, quest of Adjutant General Harris for leave of absence. A resolution grant ing his leave had passed the house When it was called up in the senat yesterday morning, inquiry was mad as to the cause of the request. whethe the adjutant general expected to ente the federal service It was decided { reserve further discussion for the com mittee of the whole and request tn , adjutant general to be present and ex : plain further the reason for the re : quest.
