passed two years ego. The present BIZ
Increases from $3.50 TO 5000 the Slala
appropriation 10 each county for car
rying out the provisions OF the bill,
each county to appropriate like
amount. The bill also increases from
$500 10 $1,000 the annual amount "
the commission for carrying out The
act.
The House also passed Representative
Lyons bill relative 10 the insurance
feature OF the workmen's compensation
act. The bill was explained by Dr. z.
S. Downey, deputy Insurance Commits
sioner for Pennsylvania. He stated that
there were four features TO The bill.
The first regulates through the Indus
trial Accident Board the insurance
rates under the Workmen's Compensa-
ton act; the second provides for the
Industrial Board TO decide as to the ade-
quacy and reasonableness Of the rates I:
the third would prevent discrimination
as TO rates and the fourth lxes a per-
centage on gross premiums. The bill
was passed unanimously.
The vote on Senator Robertson's bill
providing for the assessing Of abut-
ting property for past benefits, which
was killed in the House several days
ago, was reconsidered and the bill was
restored to the calendar.
The House also recOnsidarcd the vote

rlne and Mulvena Democrats voting
with the Republicans for the bill.
Representative McNabb asked for
ruling OF the chair on the matter OF -e-
calling a bill from the governor. He
stated that he understood that the bill
introduced by Representative Hardesty
providing for the issuing OF fractionsl
automobile licenses, which had been
passed by both houses and was now in
the governors hands, would be vetoed
in its present form. Il seems that the
bill as worded would allow anyone TO

They are confident, that as the plans
for the League Of Nations develop, and
as the extent OF German disarmament
required Is understood she will be re-

plan with unlimited enthusiasm, as in

she regards as vitally affecting her ma

France was not the only nation which
showed an inclination to ask for sex
ceptions" on certain vital points, either.
But the American mission feels more
than satisfied with the results Of the
work during Wilson's first stay in Eu-
rope, and II is believed that as the
League Of Nations plan become known
more thoroughly and in more detail,
other questions which might otherwise
involve delay and disagreement, will
