BUSY WEEK
WITH STATES
ASSEMBLYMEN
Session About Ten Days
Ahead Of Any Pre-
vious One
SPECIAL 70 Tho ChieftAin.

Special TO Tho ChieffAin.
Denver. Feb. 1.-THE weekly review
of the legislative work shows good
progress In both tho house and ths
senate This session is about ten days
.head of any preceding session in
the last twenty years. The senate
during the week passed tho Peterson
blue sky law, the Peterson amend
meat to tho compensation law and ths
pstsrsca n,l, relating .,s e the irS.., ;ss.,
measures would equal one weeks work
of tho average legislative body.
Perhaps tho most important Is the
one amending the industrial commits
sion Law. for It seeks to validate sini-
lar action II taken by another judge
that Judge Whitford took last sum
mer when he issued an injunction pre-
venting the Denver streetcnr men
from striking. or the street car com
pany from reducing the wages of the
men. II will bo remembered that
Judge Whitfords action resulted in
his election to tho supreme bench.
Governor Shoup has not yet sent
his appointments 20 the senate and
by reason OF his fail urc to do so. he
has the members of that body guess
ing as TO what will be his next move.
Tho governor says he Is in no hurry
to make the appointment and the
members OF tho senate should await
his pleasure.
The house passed all OF Wndt ~
known as the repeal bills on third
reading and they are now in the hands
of the governor for his signature.
These bills repeal over two hundred
sections OF the Colorado statutes. and
touch almost every known legal sub
ject The house also passed the knaus
bill repeating the famous two-hit law.
Tho proposed constitutional conyen-
don bill is in the house and will be on
tho calendar within short time. II
II more than likely that IT VIII receive
the necessary two-thirds vote.
