By vote of 76 to 2, the house of representative shortly after o'clock Wednesday afternoon passed the senate bill which sub mits the amendment again at the general election in November, 1922.
 The favorable vote surprised even friends of the measure and all other persons in the capitol. It had been thought 1t would be passed. but no one knew the bill would be opposed by only two votes. These votes were F. F. Oakley of Wilcox and J. Lee Long of Butler.
 Many members of the house urged the legislature again to submit the amendment, contending that many things entered into it's defeat at the last general election.
 Before voting the house, on the suggestion of MT. Tunstall adopted an amendment which limited the amount the state may spend on the port to sl0,o00,0o0 This was accept able to friends of the bill and re- suited in several persons who had decided to vote against 1t to change their opinion.
