TO ABOLISH COR-
 PORATION BODY
HOUSE PASSES GATES BILL AF- TER SPENDING NEARLY ALL
 DAY IN ORATORY.

The house continues to run true to form in it's support of administration policies.
 The second abolition bill by MT. Gates of Lonoke was passed late yes terday afternoon by an almost unaG- imous vote. It repeals outright the act of 1919 creating the Arkansas COrpor- ation Commission. MT. Gates first bill was for the abolition of the Peniten- tiary Commission, and it already is iii effect The passage of the Anti-Cor- poration Commission bill came after Il day of oratory, in which small ma nortiy was given a respectful hearing, although there were no indications that any ones vote was changed.
 MT. Gates led the debate for the bill He said that the Corporation Commis- sion is an autocratic and bureaucratic body. the antithesis of democratic self government that the commission had been af allure and that it could grind out rates more satisfactorily for the corporations than any judicial body i; that it had utterly failed to protect the rights of the people He said it was strange the representatives from the cities favor the commission, while those from the rural districts oppose it. He said that no substitute is need ed. because all that is necessary is to return the power to the people, where it existed before the creation of the commission. While it is true. he said, that the utilities are taxed to pay the expenses of the commission. the com missions tax the people through higher rates to meet the extra cost.
