Both Bodies

Supreme Courts Decision Elmer.
gency Clause Of Code Re-
lieves Legislators

Both the Senate and House today
prepared for rapid work during the
remaining days of the legislature.
Resolutions providing the way for q
whirlwind finish appeared in both
bodies. This morning the rules COM
mittee Of the House gave notice that
tomorrow it will ask that certain
rules of procedure be suspended and
others amended. The House will
limit debate, halt talking more than
once on any subject under consider
alton by the same members.
The paramount yesterdays legis-
lation was the news that the supreme
court had sustained the emergency
clause of the civil administrative
code which relieved the legislators
greatly for many admitted that they
were worried over the constitution
atty Of this code. Had the emerg-
ency clause been declared uncOnsti-
tutional it would have been q great
task to have reshaped appropriation
bills and many other measures which
have passed or are pending and
which would have had to be changed
II the civil code was to go until mid
summer before 1t could go into effect
with the further possibility that. II
the labor people were able to secure
the necessary signatures to q refer
endum the bill would have to wait
until the 1922 election to determine
whether the people would put 1t into
effect. Labor leaders are disap-
pointed, for the supreme court de-
cision bars them from an OppOrtun-
ity to obtain a referendum of the
civil administrative code bill.
Place Ban on New Bills.
The House concurrent resolution
today provides that after March Z,
the House shall consider no more
House bills which have not passed
that body and the Senate shall con-
slider no more Senate bills which
have not passed that body. In other
words after that date the House can
only consider Senate bills and the
Senate cannot consider any bills but
House bills.
The resolution further, provides
that after March 8. the day before
the legislature must adjourn, neither
house can consider any bill which
has not passed both bodies. This
will give both bodies SO hours in
which to adjust disagreements over
bills between the House and Senate
consider conference committee work
and go through formalities Of the
closing session.
Under revisions which the rules
committee will ask tomorrow. speak
ers thereafter will be limited to three
minutes instead of 10 minutes. Mo-
tions to reconsider must be made the
same day that action is taken, and
all bills passed must be transmitted
to the other house the same day OF
final action, instead OF being held
over "a hours. The rules committee
may sit during the day and bring In
new calendars for consideration.

Change In Prospect Is When

MARION, Ohio. Mcrch 1-(Copy-

Warren G. Harding told the United
Press today in an exclusive interview
what a man thinks about as he ap-
proaches the assumption of the great
lest job in the world.
1t was a simple expression Of keen
regret at parting from "the folks" in
Marion. -" IT, e"f cFt
Stro1link along the street, as We
talked, Harding was halted every few
steps by acquaintance whom he ad-
dressed familiarly as Joe, or Charlie,
Tor Jim.
II seem to be oblivious to it," he
said, referring to the great drama In
which he will play the leading role
shortly.
II feel perfectly normal. 1 do not
seem to have any feelings at oil. ex-
|cept regret at having to leave Ma
rion and the old townfolks. You can
mark that down. It is real regret
It's 2 little hard to leave after you've
spent your life among these people.
1.-THE only time can realize 1t il
when I am dealing with appointments
and the problems that I will soon
have to face"
Harding found the weather in Ma
rion almost as mild as in Florida.
He wore his light overcoat.
This weather is fne," he re-
marked. But I'd rather have it
three days from now than today"
BY this time Harding had reached
the Marion county bank end after
greeting some more old residents he
went in and deposited huge roll Of
bills, making out his own deposit slip
and waiting in turn at the teller's
window.
Then after chctting a few moments
with one of the bank officials he
walked back to his headquarters'
building, several blocks away. As he
was going down Center street one Of
the employees Of his newspaper hur-
ried by and failed to recognize his
boss. Harding saw him and shouted,
Hey there" and grasped the em-
|ploye's hand and exchanged pleas
