APPROPRIATION DISGUISE AT
 NIGHT SESSION
Campbell Announces He Has Signed Financial Code;
 Make Amendments

PHOENIX, Ariz., Apr 12-Idle most of the day awaiting the appro- priation comittee's report on the gen eral appropriation bill, the senate got busy this evening and sought to make up lost time with a night ses- sion.
 Reading of bill in the committee of the whole had been begun in the afternoon. There were several d. mendments correcting the verbiage of the measure as it was passed by the house. Then subdivision on was taken up and an amendment ap- pearedwhich would reduce the appTo- priation for diaries and wages for the office of governor from $19,300 to $1S,400 by the process of cutting the salary of the budget secretary from S3,600 to $2,7000. Whispered confer ences among members followed with the result that motion to recess un- til 7:30 o'clock was adopted
 While awaiting the appropriation committees report, a message from Governor Campbell was read annOun- cing that he had signed Senate Bill 43, the financial code, on the final
 
 There had been rumors that the bill might not receive the governors ap- proval and the legislature was more or less at sea in the framing of the general supply bill
 The house, in the morning, passed under a suspension of the rules the third bill of the session making appro priations for the salaries of members and attaches. The measure carried $2,500, which it wSs estimated would carry the legislature to Friday night. The bill was sent to the senate, where it was amended by the addi- ion of $1,000 in order that there might be no necessity for a forth feed bill.
 All pending motor tax bills were, in effect, wiped out today by a con- current resolution by Senator Elliott, which directs the state corporation commission to prepare bill for the taxing of motor vehicles using high ways for profit, to be submitted to the sixth legislature.
 There was little business in either of the two short sessions of the house. Miss Boehringer introduced a bill to repeal a hOue joint resolution to sub init to the people proposed amend ment to the title "edrcation" of the constitution. That amendment was to come before the voters at the forthcoming general election But, according to Hiss Boehringer, it was stated that proceedings taken so far had been pronounced irregular and any act that might result probably, would be invalid.
 The house finally defeated Repre- sentative Rickersons bill for the fosteNng of new industries in Ariz- ona, by eXempting them from taxa. tion for a period of 10 years. It passed senate bill suggested by the governor, to cure defect that had been discovered in the inheritance tax act.
 Resuming consideration of the sup ply bill the senate whole committee set out as if it were going to cut deep. It slashed $2,250 from the $24,250 ap- propriation tEe house had allowed the state auditors office. It reduced the appropriation for the newly formed banking department from $16,7O0 to S13,700, eliminating one bank exam iner at salary of $3,OOU,
 ' The senate restored to the tax com mission an item of $5,000 which had been omitted by the house.
 The only change in the corporation commissions appropriation was an increase in the operation allowance from 5000 to $11,O0O
 The most important change in tho office of secretary of state was the striking out of an allowance of $7,00O for copper automobile plates, which the house had inserted.
