NORMAL SCHOOL SEES MACHINERY
 OF LAW MAKING

Many New Bills Intro
 duced Despite End Near
 ing
 The session of each house of the legislature yesterday was what may be called a civic clinic. The machinery was thrown open for inspection by several hundred students of the Tenpe leries of both houses and lent gayety of color to them that they had not had previously in the session.
 For the better entertainment of the students whose presence had been pre- arranged, the senate reversed the usual order of procedure, deVottng itself in the morning to work in the whole committee of which there Is a tire some sameness, and going through the variation of the regular order in the afternoon when the visitors were to be present. The mystery of the various readings was explained to the stu dents by President Wilkinson, as well as the operation of law-making from the time the raw material, the bill, is thrown into the hopper, it's return from the committee in a partially finished state; the adjustment of 1t in the committee of the whole, the final pOuSllnS OI lulTO TGduAuS dlo lAC sending of it to the governor for in- spection.
 But for the visit of the students of the Normal. the day would have taken rank of all the days of the session thus far for dullness. Some things were expected to happen but did not. In the senate it was expected that the last battle over the omnibus bill would be fought and that in the house the advocates of fire insurance regulation, who had suffered some disadvantage the day before, would pull victory out of the jaws of defeat.
 But the omnibus bill was not called up and the insurance measure was allowed to lie over until today.
 New Bills Introduced
 A surprisingly large number of new considering the lateness of the session, with little prospect that many of them ever will be heard of again. Among them were:
 Senate bill 126, by MT. Lines by re- quest, amending the law fixing the qualified tions of voters at school cleo tions. It changes the present law only in prescribing the educational qualifi- cation test which applies to all other elections.
 Senate bill 127, by MT. Curtin, mak- ing an appropriation for the relief of distress in consequence of the depres- sion in industry.

 Ten bills were brought in by MT. Elliott. one of them proposing the abo- lition of county highway commissions and the carrying on of the contracts under them by boards of supervisors. The bill also provides for the issuance meeting federal aid. Early in the ses- sion a bill for the abolition of the county commissions was introduced but that appears to have been the end of it. The other bills provide: For the changing of mutual companies to corporations; for the erection by rail- roads of bridges parallel with their tracks at crossings, presumably for the purpose of making automobile drivers and other users of the roads pause before attempting the crossing. These ridges are to be of height of IS inches and are to be located not more than 50 feet from the tracks:

 Three New Bills in House
 Three new bills were introduced in- to the house:
 House bill 15s, by MT. Kimbar. amending the law relative to certified public accountants.
 House bill 157, by MT. Curlee. the same as senate bill 127. for the relief of distress in consequence of indus trial depression.
 House bill 15S, by the ways and means committee. amending the law relative to the distribution of auto mobile licenses. providing. among other things, for securing the license plates at the offices of county assess ors, where owners must go to secure clearance.
 House joint memorial No. was in troduced by MT. Burk. It urges upon congress and the president the direc- ton of the bureau of immigration to deport to their own country aliens who have been brought into this coun- try under special arrangement or con tract and who for two weeks have been without work. The memorial is aimed at the condition which has arisen in this valley The memorial was adopted under suspension of the rules.
 The house completed action on one bill, the California fictitious check bill, which was passed and sent to the sen ate. The finished work of the senate was but little more voluminous. It passed the uniform warehouse receipt bill, and failed to pass, because of the emergency clause the bill appropri- a1ng S17.O00 to meet the expenses of the agricultural and horticultural com mission to the end of the present fiscal year. The bill could muster only 10 votes. Eight were cast against it
