INDIANAPOLIS, Ind Feb ~14.-Much
has been said Of the unusual speech
with which the present session Of the
Legislature IS disposing Of its business.
While this is true when the 1921 es-
son is compared with sessions Of recent
years yet the fact remains that a vast
majority of its work remains to be done
in the remaining nineteen working days
Of the assembly.
1t is already apparent that scores Of
bills now pending will die without be-
ing acted upon BY both houses. Up to
today the senate has received from its
members 258 bills and the house SOS.
out of this large number the house has
taken final action on only four of the
senate bills and the upper house has
passed on three of the lower branch $
bills Two of these were appropria-
ton measures-one the appropriation
for the expense Of the session and the
other the regular appropriation bill.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Feb. 14-The
fight over the Baxter anti-picketing bill
is now transferred to the lower house
OF the assembly, following its passage
last week in the senate after a bitter
debate in which it was declared that
the majority in the legislature would
have TO answer to laboring men of the
state if the bill became a law" The
bill is sponsored by manufacturing in
tcrests and has been opposed by labor
organizations in many resolutions and
petitions filed in both houses. Oppon-
ents Of the measure say that the Rats
constabulary bill, providing for the es-
adjustment of a state police force. is
q twin brother to the anti-picketing bill
and that the passage of either would
subject the majority in the legislature
10 unnecessary embarrassment. Those
who favor the anti-picketing and the
state police bills declare that they are
law and order" measures and should
be on the statute books for that reason
