[ Legislature to Meet
 This Morning For Its
 SecondDay This Week
By WILLIAM l.. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, July 30.-(Special )-Rep- resentatives must get the revenue bill oft their minds on Thursday for the disposi- tion of other matters. At 10 o'clock the two houses will meet f-S t.-e second legis- lative day this week, and it is expected the house will take up its regular routine during the morning, disposing of local bills in the afternoon. It IS probable the two houses will adjourn again on Thurs day afternoon until Monday morning. giving the two days of this week to the house committee of the whole to furthei discuss the revenue bill, which already has been mutilated to the extent that i5 likely many sections will have to be re- written in their entirety.
 The senate of Alabama has made a rec ord in disposing of business. It is about ten days ahead of the house so far as the amount of business disposed of is concerned. In the senate there is more harmony, notwithstanding the fact there are many senators who are known to have opposed the administration during the election.
 In the house there appears to be been made during the thirty days al- ready consumed of the fifty allowed by the state constitution.
 AS evidence of the difference between the two houses the bill of Senator I.eith. known as the -Vorkmens Compensation measure, was enacted in a very few min

PRESS ASSOCIATION AFTER FAVORABLE REPORT

Montg omery July S0.-tSpecial) Efforts to get a favorable report on the senate bill of MT Mcdowell, which permits railroads to issue passes to newspaper editors and owners in Ala bama, will be made by the legislative committee of the Alabama Press asso- citation at the next meeting of the house committee on labor and immi- grafton. The house committee has had the bill since it was enacted by the senate last February, and no action has been taken. Representative Tomp- kins of Houston, chairman of the houst committee, is opposed to the bill on the ground that it will result in a backward step.
 The Conner legislature of 1907 en- acted law which prohibited all Ala bama railroads from issuing trans portation free of cost to editors in the state. In those days it was charged the railroads were taking an active part, and were spending large sums of money in local and state cam paigns. Another allegation was made that newspapers were influenced by the railroads, and lat the newspapers were under obligations to the railroads when they accepted the passes
 Senator Mcdowell, who fought hard for the measure in the senate, set up the claim that conditions in 1919 are far different from conditions in 1907, 1, that railroads have been shorn of their power in politics if they ever had poli- tical power. He claims that the news papers have the right to exchange space in their columns for railroad passes.
 Among the supporters of the meas ure in the senate was Senator. Craft, who made a strong speech in Support of it.
 The bill has many friends in the house, and the legislative committee of the Press association is anxious to get favorable report thus giving the full house an opportunity to settle the question so far as this legislature is concerned.
 Chester F. Johnson, member of the legislative committee, will be among those to appear in behalf of the meas ure A definite date for the hearing has not sbeen fixed.
 The bill has been pigeon-holed ever since the senate acted favorably on it. and many. had forgotten that it had been passed by the upper house.
 Doubt that the bill will be success ful in the house is expressed by many editors. In fact. it is reported in Mont gomery that editors are taking little part in agitation for it's enactment. They admit, however, that they would not object to the acceptance of a rail-

WESTERN UNION ASKS
 APPROVAL OF RATES

Montgomery, July 3o.-(Special.) )-Claim- ing that there has been no change in the cost of operating it's concern the Western Union Telegraph company, through J. F. Wilson, district commer- cial superintendent. on Wednesday asked the Alabama public service commission to approve rates put into effect in Ala bama on April l. by order of the Post master General. The petition of the company says that the company will go back into the hands of private owners the night of July 31. and that it is the desire of the officials to get approval of the rates.
 Mir. Wilson desires to have some as. surance that the new rates will not be changed at this time. He intimated tha, his company would have to plan for ad- d't.onal revenue unless there is some change in the cost of operation.
 It was made clear at the commission office Wednesday that in a short time the company will be required to send representatives to Montgomery to show cause why the increased rates should be allowed to remain under private opera ton.

Opponents set up the. contention that they did nol know the contents of the bill; that .s should be printed and distributed to the house. Opposition was strong and it ap- pared the bill would be defeated, whe. Representative Harrison of Jeffersoi county, and those favoring it, agreed lor poStponement.
 The revenue bill is before the house first because it was known there would os stronger opposition there than in the senate. When it gets to the upper house, there will be amendments, but short argu- ments.

GOVERNOR TO SUGGEST
 RATIFICATION. IS RUMOR

Montgomery. July 30.-(Special.) )-Foi the fourth legislative day the resolution of Senator Carmichael of Colbert, which will kill the woman's suffrage amend ment, will be on the senate calendar for Thursday. Mir Carmichael, leading the suffrage opposition. introduced the reso- lution the day after the senate refused to ratify the Susan B. Anthony amend ment, but there seems to be no disposi- tion on the part of the opposition to force the resolution up for adoption.
 It was rumored Thursday that, with the revenue bill out of the way in the next week or two, Governor Kilby will suggest the ratification of the amend ment. Whether or not this is the reason for the failure of MT. Carmichael to adopt his resolution is not known.
 The resolution will change the rules of the house so as to require a majority of the elected members to decide to bring up the resolution again this ses- sion.
