Dick Howard, of Cowley county, Thurs
day made the statement that at the
IfNxt session of the legislature If bill
was introduced asking for the repeal
of the Industrial court law he would

vorced from the public utilities COM
Senator <fIoward gave as his reason,
for his change of heart that after

there was no actual call for the law,
that it had not delivered the goods as
anticipated, that it has increased the

any particular benefit to the common

of which is to regulate corporate and
