santa Fe. March 10.-Increases
in the maximum payments for in-
jury and general better provisions
are allowed in the workmen's
compensation act which passed the
house this afternoon. The bill had
previously passed the senate and
now goes to the governor for his
signature. 1t was introduced by
Senator Mcdonald Of Socorro
county.
Pool halls came in for severe
censure from several members
when house bill 317 was passed
after considerable debate. The
measure prohibits places of public
amusement at which billiards, pool
or bowling is played, from being
opened on Sundays and also pro-
hibits the operation of such places
church or public school. The bill
passed, 33 to II, and now goes to
the senate.
Charitable Institutions.
Under the provisions of house
joint resolution 43, charitable In
stitutions of all denominations
would be eligible to receive state
monies. The present constitutional
restriction limits the appropriation
of state funds to any institution
Except those which funds were ap-
propriated in 1909" This provi-
sion has operated to allow appro-
priations to only Catholic institu-
tons.
Another bill which encountered
some opposition in the house was
that prohibiting the display of
pictures, posters. etc, for adver-
tising purposes in which there is
s h o wn anyone, brandishing a
knife Or pointing revolver or
such similar criminal acts" Rep
resentative Crenshaw opposed the
bill, declaring that it was direct
ed against moving picture theaters
The bill passed, 33 to 8, and now
goes to the senate.
New Compensation Act.
The new compensation act rais-
es the maximum amount that may
be paid from $40 to SIS week
and makes the minimum period of
disability ten days instead of three
weeks. Under the old law one re-
ceived no compensation for illenss
or disability under three weeks
duration. The old law provided 40
per cent of the weekly salary with
a maximum of $12. The new law

a "joker' in the bill which made
it legally impossible for railroads
