COMMITTEE HEARINGS

Tho committee on judiciary on
Wednesday afternoon had several
interesting matters under considera-
ton.
Judiciary
Judge w. G.. Atkins appeared in OPP
position to the act relative to me
quality Of coal. establishing a Stanu :
ard Of coal sold at retail. under su-
neryision of the Public Utilities Com
mission. the bill being introduced by
Rep. Baxter Of Portland. Mr.. ATKINS
said that the dealers we're entitled 10
conside ration. During the last two
wears they had been obliged to pay
in advance for all coal. never see II
until delivered and take just what
thew could get Other conditions might
continue such a state and where
would the dealers be. to receive a
cargo of coal that couldn't be sold
under the Maine, law. with no re-
dress
Rep. Baxter thought the dealers
could protect themselves and get the
right kind of coal, if they tried. SAID
he had refused coal that was not up
to contract and had not paid in ad-
vance for it. Judge Atkins said the
dealer had had no more show in the
past two years than the consumer
He thought the idea good one III
theory but impossible to carry into
effect. You can't pick out your coal
like other commodities, but must take
what they send.
Chairman Cleaves Of the Public
Utilities Commission said the COM
mission was not in search for any
more duties He had found that the
arrival of standard Of quality. was
not so hard and that the producers did
that very thing and asked why not
the Legislature adopt the producers
Standards He quoted newspaper
article that suggested that such law
as proposed might lead the producers
to ignore Maine in their sale and
shipments and thus send coal still
higher than it now is in Maine and
render it still more difficult to OBJ
tain.

House, showing that the shoe work.
ers OF Auburn had good and suf-
ficient reason for the presentation OF
this bill TO the Legislature and for
it's careful consideration. He there
fore asked that the bill be tabled and
especially assigned for tomorrow
(Thursday) morning and it was so
voted.
House amendment B to bill. An Act

definitely postponed as was also the
act itself. A motion was made to
reconsider which was lost and so the
matter was disposed of for this
Legislature.
When the act relating to the State
Budget was reached, Barnes of Houl-
ton moved its third reading. Rounds
Of Portland moved to adjourn.
Barnes hoped that the House would
not adjourn but attend to business
and gave notice that pretty soon
some one would object to further
DELAY in a decided manner. Rounds
said that the committees must have
some time for executive session IN
order TO make report and that to
keep on now would mean more delay
than to adjourn, but he withdrew his
motion, when the Chair stated thai
