Tho committee on Monday morning

In the statement Mr.. Piez declared

Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1921-03-01

The bill came up when Wade,
chairman of the house judiciary
committee, moved that the rules be
suspended and that the bill be
drawn from the house committee
on public affairs without recon-
mendation. This motion carried,
and he then moved that it be read
third time in full preparatory to
its passage.
Gallegos, of Guadalupe, took the
floor after the reading and de-
clared that he favored the bill, but
that 1t had such drastic provisions
that he would like to postpone
action for day and have the bill
made a special order for Tuesday
afternoon at o'clock. Winston
took issue with him and declared
that the members had been talking
over the bill for two weeks and that
he was in favor of immediate
action.
Tabling Motion Carried.
Howard, of Roosevelt, moved
that the Gallegos motion to post
pone action be tabled indefinitely,
and his motion to table carried by
vote of 23 to 81. The roll call

These sections of the constitu-

House Economical, Too.
In addition to the reductions
practiced by the senate finance
committee in preparing the bill,
the house of representatives this
morning took two actions designed
to follow the economy trend. The
committee on appropriations and
finance reported out unfavorably
the bill to provide free text books
in schools. Chairman Winston OF
the committee pointed out that this
would involve an expense OF $780,
900 at a time when the state could
not afford it. The unfavorable re-
port was not adopted, however,
but the bill was made a special or
der for Q o'clock Tuesday after
noon.
House Bill 20S, proposing the
creation of al fund to pay for the
administrator of a new working
mems compensation act, was also
reported out unfavorably. Win
ston explained that this would
cost at least $4,000. Roehi, It's
author, attempted to have action
postponed until Tuesday afternoon,
but his motion to that effect was
tabled and the unfavorable report
was adopted. thus killing the bill.
