Orders Of the Day
Mr.. BAXTER of Sagadahoc: Mr..
President, yesterday the Senate voted
to indefinitely postpone House Bill
No. So, An Act to prevent the mar

The Senators were not informed that
this bill came from the House recon-

no objection to recommitting this bill
to that committee, and I move that
the Senate reconsider it's action of
yesterday whereby this bill was in
definitely postponed.

President, l am not going to object to

Senator from Sagadahoc is informed
as to the reason for asking this re-
committal. In line with what said
few moments ago. there are a great
number of bills coming back recon-
mitted. Now, gentlemen, it all takes
time--those things. After a bill has

know for just what reason they want
it to go back. If it goes back once,
it might as well go back twice and
thrice, and L do not need to. remind

session: business is Milling nm "a mid =
