LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS

Art. V, Sec. 5, provides that the General Assembly shall meet on the first Tuesday after the second Monday in 1919, and biennially thereafter; the session of 1921 and alternate sessions shall not exceed thirty days, and no business shall be transacted except the consid- eration of general appropriation bills for the State Government and the State Institutions, and the investigation of accounts of State off cers and management and condition of State in- stituticns. The regular sessions shall not ex- ceed sixty days.
 This is in keeping with the policy of re- stricting legislation to that which is essential, and eliminating protracted sessions. The peo- pie decisively went on record for this reform in 1913, when they adopted by an overwhelming majority an initiated amendment limiting leg isative sessions to sixty days. With all local legislation prohibited, it will be found that all necessary laws can be enacted within that time and many thousands of dollars saved the tax payers of the state by this wise economy As they will be serving term salary, there will be financial inducement for members to prolong session beyond the time actually nee essary to transact business of benefit to the state.

ARKANSAS RICE IS
 SHIPPED TO BELGIUM

Twenty-eight car loads of rice were shipped from the Dewitt rice mill last week to Belgium to be distributed un- der the supervision of MT. Hoover. This is the second shipment from Dewitt of rice to feed the Belgians and the people of northern France. The rice was sent on order of the United States government. :

PROHIBITION

Art XIX prohibits the manufacture of in- toxicating liquors of any kind in the state and makes it unlawful to "import into, deliver, sell, own or keep within the state" any such liquor, except wine for sacramentai purposes, and alco- hol for medicinal or scientific purposes. The General Assembly shall provide laws for its en- forcement
 This provision is sactiCned by the Prohibi- tion forces of the state. It has been prononnc- ed puncture proof. It is only proposing to en- force at an earlier date law that will soon be nationwide through the ratification of the pen ding Amendment to the Federal Constitution, It reads into the Constitution principle already in effect by statute, which long years of local op- tion had made operative. And yet it is no stronger than the General Assembly makes it, for penalties and enforcement are retained to the people in their legislative capacity. There is no reform more thoroughly accepted through out the nation than the legal prohibition of the liquor traffic in all it's forms, and even Liberal ism can not consistently insist upon return to the days of the open saloon and it's attendant evils. Prohibition is advocated by President Wilson as necessary measure.

SALARIES

Art. xxx, Sec. 10, provides: The Governor
 Secretary of State, Auditor, Treasurer, Attorney General, Commissioner of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture, Commissioner of State Lands and Highways, Commissioner of Education and other State Officers shall each receive salary which shall not be increased nor diminished dur ing their respective terms, nor shall any of them receive to his own any fees, costs, per- quisites, of office other compensation, ex- cept that the General Assembly may provide for the payment of the expenses of Circuit Jud- ges, and Chancellors when holding court at places other than in the counties in which they reside and all fees that may hereafter be pay able by law for any service performed by any officer mentioned in this section shall be paid
 in advance into the State Treasury Until oth- erwise provided by law, the annual salaries shall be as follows: Governor, $7,5OO; Secre- tary of State, $3,6OO; Treasurer, $36OO; At
 torney General $4,OOO; Auditor of State, S3,- 600; Commissioner of State Lands and High ways, $3,6O0; Commissioner of Mines, Manu- factures and Agriculture, S3 6OO Judges of Supreme Court, each $6,OOO; Judges of Circuits Courts and Chancellors, each $4,OOO; Commis- sioner of Education, $4,OOo. Art V, Sec 16. places members of the General Assembly on a salary not to exceed $1 ,O0O for four-year term
 In spite of the popular prejudice against in- crease in salaries, provisions authorizing fair living salaries for the members of the General Assembly. the judicial and executive officers of our state Government, are among the most important reforms worked out by the framers of the Constitution of 1918. The old saying that 'The laborer is worthy of his hire" is cer- tainly applicable in times like these, to the ex- ecutive, legislative, and judicial officers of Arkansas. The cost of living since 1847 has

BUDGET SYSTEM

BUDGET SYSTEM
 Art XVI, Sec. ', provides that on or before November Is, 1920, and biennially thereafter the heads of all State Departments and institu- tions, except the Judiciary and the Supreme Court, shall, with the Governor, compile a bud get of financial requirements and expenditures. Five days after organization, the General As sembly shall submit itemized statement of its financial needs to be included in the budget. On or before the fifth day following the organiza- ton, the Governor shall submit to the General Assembly budget containing a complete state ment of proposed expenditures and estimated revenues, also current assets, liabilities, reserv es surplus deficit Items may be changed but the aggregate appropriations shall not ex- ceed the aggregate recommended by the Gov ernor. No other appropriations shall be made unless provision is made for the revenue to GOV CT the
 This provision as enevitable in working out Ia thorough business system of running the state government. Its adoption will mean that the states business will no longer be run on hap hazard plan. The revenue must be in sight to cover an appropriation or no appropriation will be made. The Legislature will no longer pass appropriation bills without limitation or regard to the ability of the treasury to meet the obliga- tion, leaving it to the Governor to prune and cut down to the best of his judgment, and the dissatisfaction of all parties concerned. The adoption of this system, with otherwise econom- ic measures, will enable the state to keep on cash basis at all times, prevent it's paper from being hawked about at disgraceful discount, pay it's employees dollar for dollar all they earn and maintain it's credit upon high plane The General Assembly will enter upon it's work with a clear, comprehensive chart to guide it's course and shape it's appropriations

MAJORITY VERDICTS

Art. II, Sec. 2, provides that "in civil and in misdemeanor cases, five-sixths of the jurors may find verdict"
 This is wise provision that is being adopt ed in many states, and will be the means of greatly eXpeditng court proceedings without jeopardizing the rights of the litgants. It will make it impossible for one or two men to cause a mistrial. The traditional safeguard of unani- nous verdict is retained in felony cases where life and liberty are at stake, but in cases of mi nor importance there can be no valid objection offered to the principle of majority verdicts al- ready being recognized in the progressive jurs- prudence of the country

Arkansas needs the highet type of men to fill it's responsible legislative, executive and judicial departments, and it is universally rec ognized that annual salaries are preferable either to fees or per diem allowances

This wise provision will prevent the con stantly recurring agitation about the removal of the University of Arkansas from Fayetteville. It will make secure the location of the State Normal, and the ft UT agricultural schools, with great wealth of property interests annually increasing in extent. Being free from political agitation, the institutions may grow and expand without being crippled and hampered in their operations, and impaired n their usefulness

Like Fireworks
AS Machine-Gun
Bullets Hit Tank
Thin Flake of Steel Rains
ON Faces and Hands
of Men Inside

LONDON, Oct. 80 Correspondents
of The Associated press) Machine
gun bullets sprayed against the sides
OF a tank produce q queer effect within
It. SAYS one British army officer who
has spent three months fighting with
his tank in France.
The bulleV, he says, cannot pierce the
armor. but it does knock off on the IN
side thin fake of steel that pulverizes
and flies in all directions. 1t gets into
the faces and hands of the crew and
stings them like strong wind on
cold day. The surgeons have found
that simple bath of iodine solution
will heal the pain and prevent infec-
ton.
Describing the scene within a tank
which is being hit with machine-gun
bullets the officer said:
"As the bullets strike the tank,
simultaneously with the sound OF I'M
pact and the creation of the flake,
blue flame is seen. and when ma
chine-gun is playing up and down the
Joints in .hc hope of finding a weak
spot. the interior looks much like
demonstration of cheap fireworks.
"While there is no Danger from ma
chne-guns TO q tank crew, there is
real and pressing danger from armor-
piercing or explosive shells.
"Unless it is possible to get within
:. mile of the guns before being dis
covered, one is liable to come within
q range Of shells that will wipe the
tank Off the face Of the earth. A direct
hit means that everybody Is going to
get hurt. with the chances that some
body is going to be killed. The Ger
mans were always trying to make such
a hit.

the tank is comparatively safe. for the
guns cannot be depressed to get the
range. Then the only thing the tank
has to deal with is. the machine gun.
when this is accurately located the
tank quickly runs it down.
"The German machine-gunner was
Germany's best fighter. Generally he
would hang on to position, peppering
the numbering tank until he found it
was no use and fled or was run over.
Zone of the tricks we learned was
the tremendous value of tanks against
masses of enemy troops. At first we
were content TO use the ordinary ma
chine-gun in tanks. but in the latter
months we used the shell, scattering
it's scores Of leaden bullets like a shot
gun. Troops without artillery were
unable to stand such fire."
