SENATE NOTES
Items of Interest From Upper
House of Legislature.

A bill has been introduced by Sena-
tor Kimball. of Labette, changing the
law regulating building and loan as
sociations and removing restrictions
which provide that their capital stocks
shall not be more than ten million
dollars.
Two bills intended to protect Kan
Sas banks have been introduced in the
senate by Montee, of Crawford county.
One provides that when a bank cashes
check on a nonresident bank and
exercises due diligence in forwarding
such check for collection, it shall
not be liable if the bank on which the
check was drawn fails to pay. Another
provides that where a bank fails to
pay a check thru error the depositor
must show actual damages to collect
and then may collect only the actual
damages.
Doctors and healers will at least
have to know their three RS in Kan
sas if Senator Milligan gets thru bill
he has introduced. 1t provides that
must undergo a preliminary educa-
tional examination before being issued
a license to practice.
Senator Schocl1, of Shawnee, wants
the first capitol of Kansas, which was
located near Camp Funston, preserved
to posterity. He has Introduced bill
providing $4,000 to repair and keep
up the building erected by Governor
Reeder in 1858 at Pawnee to be used
as the capitol of Kansas. Ground on
which the building. stands has been
decided to the state by the national
government.
Schoch also has introduced a bill to
provide for the continuation of the
Kansas state guard organizations
formed during the war. The bill asks
that funds be provided and authority
granted for keeping sixteen companies
which may have maximum strength
of seventy-five men,
Senator J. A. Terrell is anxious to
have the walks around the state house
repaired SO that they may be walked
upon. When the Montee concurrent
resolution providing for an investiga-
ton of the conditions of the COVER
nor's mansion and the state house
grounds was brought up after having
been acted upon by the house. it was
found that the house had eliminated
that part of the resolution which re-
ferred to the state house grounds
Senator Montee was willing to ac-
quiesce in the action taken by the
house, explaining that the house had
a separate measure up that would pro-
vide for a report on the state house

surance commissioner large part of
the discretionary powers that have
gradually been taken away from him
last 20 years. Also. the substitute of
Senator Price makes it possible for the
superintendent of insurance to begin
a plan looking to the Standardization
of all insurance policies written in
Kansas and to give Kansas the bene-
fits of the standardized systems now
in force in New York and in other
states.
Give Companies Time.
One feature of the Price bill that
ure gives the insurance companies OPP
Grating in the state time in which to
conform to the new regulations the in
surance superintendent may lay down.
The Carroll bill provided that they
would be required at once to conform.
In this part the Price bill reads as fol-
lows:
ION or before the first day of Octo-
Der. 1919, the superintendent of in
surance shall make and announce
rules and regulations concerning the
terms and provisions of forms of pol
icies and contracts and that on and
after January 1, 1920, all policies will
have to conform to these rules and
regulations
Upon motion of Senator Nighswon-
ger the bill was made a special order
| for Friday morning at 10 o'clock and
it was ordered that copies of the sub
stitute measure by Price be printed sc
that the senators may have an oppor-
tunity of studying all its features.

That Kansas will be forced to make
the heads of the state insurance de-
partment and the state printer ap-
ppintees of the chief executive in or
der to get the efficiency and the re-
suits desired was the statement made
on the floor of the senate today by
Senator Francis c. Price, of Clark
county, when discussing the proposal
or Senator Carroll to prevent insur-
ance companies from inserting clauses
ID. their policies in conflict with the
statutes.

Senator Price said. But it is only
matter of short time until Kansas
wfll have to adopt the policy of max

likewise the office of state printer
The Price assertions were made when
the senate, sitting as committee of the
whole, was considering under special
oRders the bill by Senator Carroll pro-
viding that no insurance company be
allowed to insert a clause in its con-
tract relating TO the time a policy
1iolder may bring suit, which is in
c0nflict with the Kansas ste tute.

saThe Carroll bill, one of the early
Ineasures to go into the hopper has
had hard shedding and has been held
over and pulled to pieces several
times. Today it was practically an

that all of it be stricken out except

CALL OFF ON THE LAWS
Republican Leaders Would Quit Re-
stricting Business for a While

Washington, Feb. 5.-Republican
congressional leaders today favor re-
taxation of present restrictive laws on
business as a means of meeting the
unemployment situation.
They are opposed to the Kenyon
bill, creating a public works board
and appropriating s1O0.O0O,000 to start
public work and give men employ
ment.
In spite of this opposition, Kenyon
is going ahead. He urged the senate
labor committee today to report his
bill favorably as an emergency meas
ure He explained that the 100000
600 will be used only for public works
already authorized but held up by the
war and now delayed by the cost of
materials.

matter be taken up by joint commit
tee so that the grounds would not be
overlooked and succeeded in getting
an agreement to a conference COM
mittee.
State Oil Inspector Paulen will be
given assoc year increase in salary
and he will be permitted to pay his
deputies $500 year instead of
$500 if bill introduced by the sem
ate committee on oil and gas be passed.
The bill also provides for a new test
for gasoline and kerosene. Paulen says
that the present test system used is
not satisfactory and that the new sys-
tenn which has been found satisfactory
by the city of Detroit will insure us
ers CT these products greater protec-
ton against inferior gasoline and kerr
osene.
In spite of the fact that its work
day was interrupted Tuesday by the
joint session to hear Governor Allen
discuss his constitutional convention
measure, the senate made a bigger
hole in the business on its calendar
than in any day since the opening of
the session Seven bills on third read
ing were passed and thirteen bills un-
der general orders were recommended
for passage.

water supplies by oil drillers. AS
drawn the bill made it obligatory for
the owner of land on which an oil
well might be drilled to see that salt
water from the well would not pollute
the pure water supply of that vicinity.
This feature was changed tic place the
burden on the driller but upon the in
sistance of Coleman and Nighswonger
that the measure vitality affected every
oil interest in the state, it was recon-
mended for passage subject to amend
ment and debate.

People who nibble at food can re-
call the time when they ate heartily
of anything they liked. There was no
dyspepsia then, no stomach trouble
because there was a plentiful sup
ply of digestive juices. You can bring
back the good old times if you follow
each meal with Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. They relieve sour stomach,
water brash, heartburn, gas, rumb-
lings. bad breath, coated tongue and
dead, dull, stupid feeling.
Sit down to your next meal ana
eat heartily. Enjoy your food in peace.
Let your appetite have full play:
When all through, take a couple or
Stuart.s Dyspepsia Tablets and fear
no consequences. Thousands have
taken this advice and been glad they
did.
Get a 50-cent box of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets from your druggist.
