stated that II differed from the ex-
isting statute only in the provision
that the funds TO be matched with

general fund.
Morning Session
In the morning session OF the COM
mittee the amendment to the consti-
tuition increasing the states iimita.
ton OF Indebtedness was agreed TO
with little or no dissent.
At the opening Of the morning seS-
sion resolutions were received from
the chambers Of commerce OF Phoenix
amendment to the improvement act,
which had been received by the SEN
ate from the house on Saturday. The
resolutions were sent to the stand
ing committee along with the bill.
Senate Bill 10, which is the same
as House Bill z, was considered a
little later in the committee OF the
whole. This is the measure that re-
peals all appropriations OF the general
appropriation bill Of the regular ses-
sion for the years 1929. The bill
was recommitted for the purpose OF
repeating all continuing appropria-
tons in the statutes.
Separate bills had been introduced
into the house last Saturday, some
is OF them, for that purpose. And
thereby has come a misunderstanding
and some alarm, as Budget Secretary
Bacchus has learned. The impress
sion has been created that those bills
were intended to wipe out all Of the
institutions for which separate or
continuing appropriations had been
made. among them the child welfare
board.
Nothing OF that sort Is contern-
plated. II Is the purpose only TO
make provision for the support OF
existing institutions in the general
appropriation bills Of successive leg
islatures and nowhere else. 1t is
possible that some useless offices
and boards will be eliminated, but
that Is not the intent OF any OF the
bills looking to clearing the decks
for action against the extravagance
OF casual or continuing approprta-
tionS.
Receive Reports
The house session in the morning
was a brief one. The report of the
committee on agriculture and irT1ga-
tion on the bill repeating the act for
co operation between the state and
the federal government in surveys Of
reclamation projects was unfavorable.
There was a short session of the
whole committee, but two Of the bills
which had been referred to more than
one committee had not been fully re-
ported. The only matter considered
was Mr.. Meals house joint resolution
to the bill in congress for the
relief of several settlers in Mohave
county who had settled upon lands in
Mohave county for periods ranging
from seven TO ~ years only to find |
that their hoInosteads were within
the Santa Fe land grant The rail-
road company had consented to an
for the exchange of its |
lands for lieu lands and a bill au-
thorizing such an exchange is now
before congre SIS. being pressed by !
Hayden and Senator's
Cameron and Ashurst. The resoIu- |
tion urges the legislation and extends |
the thanks Of the legislature to Mr.. |
Hayden.
There developed some opposition to |
the resolution which afterward |
turned out TO have been not In earn |
est. Mr.. Neal, who Is a cowboy when |
he is not legislating. and who keeps |
a lariat on his desk, seized Il and be- |
gan swinging il preparatory to roping |
and tying the objectors.
Both houses adjourned to 10 o'clock |
this morning.
