Virginia Legislature

Richmond. Va, Feb. ~. - Under
provisions OF q bill just passed by
the House and forwarded to the
Senate, localities may levy p tax
OF only 81 instead Of s1.25 on the
500 worth of bank stock. The rs
cent tax segregated to the State is
left intact. The measure means a
loss of from $4,000 to $4,000 in
revenue TO this city.
The ozlin-w Willis amendment to
the 'blue sky" law. also received
the House stamp Of approval. 1t
includes provisions designed to ma
terially strengthen the statute reg
ulating the sale of speculative
stocks In Virginia. Adequate bond
must be executed by any company
seeking to sell stock. Fees to pro-
moters and statesmen must not ex-
coed 20 per cent of the va1ue of
the securities.
Commonwealth attorneys are
debarred from acting as counsel for
public service corporations In a bill
reported by the house committee for
courts of Justice.
without recommendation, the
house finance committee reported
the Hunter bill. granting the legis-
lators an increase in salary Of 100
per cent.
Prediction Is made that the bill
designed to, break up the alleged
monopoly of the Virginia Pilots
Association will be killed in commit
tee.
Ihe house is now holding two ses-
sions daily. and will continue to do
SO the remainder of the session. it is
announced.
Another bill by that body would
prevent the confiscation of an auto
mobile in liquor case IL the owner
can prove that the car was being
used to transport ardent spirits
without his knowledge or consent.
1t was understood about the
capitol today that a Democratic
caucus will he held some time next
week to name a commissioner of
now that both the Upper and Low
er Branches have passed the bill
extending the life of the depart
ment until 1922. DIR. J. Sidney

for reelection. Others actively
seeking the position are Delegate
Harry B. Smith. of Culpeper. and

In Italian opinion Saionica and

Apropos of this, attention Is called
to Lloyd Georges parliamentary de-

Foreign circles generally look for
