LEGISLATURE ENDS SESSION
Many Bills Acted Upon on the Rush
Hours of the Final Day.

The 1919 session of the Delaware
Legislature came to a close shortly
after five o'clock last Wednesday
morning, when both branches ad-
jOumed until noon Friday, at which
time they convened again to pass
the appropriations and claims bills
and then adjourn sine die. Although
weary from their hard work and the
strain under which they had been la
bored all night, and drOwsy from lack
of sleep, the legislators and other per-
sons in the State House at the hour
of adjournment joined in a songfest
during which a number of present day
song hits, and the old time favorites,
we've sung with vim, winding up with
the singing of home Sweet Hcme ;"
Although scores of bills were acted
upon in both Houses, yet a consider
able number of bills remained on the
Senate calendar at the time of adj
jOurnment, thus dying a natural"
death. The House practically cleared
up all business remaining on the
calendar of that body and was ready
to adjourn even before the hour.
An outstanding feature of the last
nights session was the passage of the
new school code by the Senate and
House. The code had been killed in
the Senate on Monday, and friends of
the measure had almost given Up hope
of having it enacted at this session.
1t was recOnsidered and recommitted,
however, and after a number of
amendments had been added that
made it only necessary to have a ma
jOrity vote passage, instead Of a two
thirds vote as it required in its orig
inal form, it was passed and sent to
the Governor for his signature.
Among the other bills passed during
the closing hours of the session were
the following:
Senate bill appropriating $4,000 to
the state college Tor ColOred Stu
dents.
House bill authorizing the Attorney
General to appoint four detectives one
from each of the rural counties at a
salary of $500 and one from Will
mington at a salary of $500.
Senate bill giving the regulators of
weights and measures in Kent and
Sussex counties authority to weigh
coal and ice when there is any sus-
picion that the correct weight is not
being received.
House bill providing state aid to
counties for road construction to the
amount of 100000.
Representative Mulvena's income
