 Would Know Members 5. The greater part of the morning ses 1t sion of the house was spent in the com = nlittee of the whole with MT. Eddy i -t the chair. The first measure taken | e was House Bill by MT. Lines, requir e ing boards of supervisors to send list e of legislators elect to the secretary ( TT let -hnJ ie4s @l, d legislature on the day it convenes. H d said the need of such legislation wa $ suggested on the opening day of tn
 present session. Many of the member -- had come without credentials; they ha a forgotten them. The credentials com l. mittee knew only by rumor or commo It report that these members had bee L. elected. The only amendment made IS the bill was the correction of a type s- graphical error. The bill was favorabl st recommended and later was sent to th d. committee on enrolled and engrosse III bills and ordered to a third reading. ' Beside the minimum wage bill, Hous 'e Bill 12. the educational bill came u ls It had been unfavorably recommends - it was stated, because printed copit IL of it had not yet been received. It weI III III over for one day, retaining it's place C i0 the calendar.
 Another session of the whole con |. mittee in the afternoon favored the pa. III sage of the bill providing for the buri N of soldiers and marines who die ind le gents. This bill originally included Il 1iI wives or widows of such soldiers ar p9s marines and was amended so as A. include their mothers. A favorab h1 recommendation was also made to M 7 gu | Gibsons bh to increase the pay . official interpreters.

 them, but words that meant somethin ;u The rest of a rather busy day in | a,. house was put in receiving commit ,n reports, in the second reading of bi so and the assignment of them to COZ q mittees.
