Of a bill by Senator Arnold repeating
an act Of 1920 creating the South
Miller County Highway. The gov
ernor contended that the bill is in
violation Of the constitution, which
prohibits the enactment Of any stat
ute impairing the obligation OF con
tract. Representative Arnold OF Mill
er county gave a history Of the crea-
tion of the district and said he and
Senator Arnold were elected on a
platform demanding its repeal.
Let the law be made consistent >
urged Representative Sheffield OF
Philips county when he arose on the
floor of the House and demanded
that the Sunday prohibition be ex'
tended to all games Of skill and attn
letics.
Mr. Sheffield called up for final
reading and passage his bill to pro
hibit fishing, golf, tennis, football OF
any other similar game, on Sunday
Suggestions were made by more or
less facetious members that he
should include mumblepeg, tiddle-de-
winks, marbles and finch, and some
solicitious member toward the rear
of the hall wanted to know what Ell
feet the bill would have on a mans
kissing his own wife.
When the bill was placed on fnal
passage, only one courageous repre-
sentative dared vote against 1t. This
was John A. Riggs of Garland coun'
ty, who was heard to remark, soto
voce, that a lot OF his wealthy consti
tuents at Hot Springs would never
forgive him If he stopped them from
playing golf on Sunday.
Mr.. Bohlinger OF Pulaski introduced
bill to appropriate 100000 for the
purpose of purchasing free textbooks
to be furnished to The children of the
state from the first to the eight
grades. It is proposed that the a2
preparation shall be made from tho
general revenue fund and apportionee
the common school fund, to be appor
TO the counties in the same manner as
| toned to the county boards OF educa
ton in the same manner and on thu
same basis as the common school func
is apportioned.
The senate and House has passed
the severence tax bill agreed upol
by committees from both houses ant
the way is clear for such a law t
soon go into effect assessing a tai
on the natural resources of the state
This ends an effort made during tn
1921 session of the General Assembl,
and will be a source Of great add
tional revenues for the state.
General Bills introduced in hous
as follows:

Washington telegraph., 1923-02-16

A bill rendering to the federal gov
ernment exclusive Jurisdiction over
the city of Hot Springs was intro
duced in the House Of Representative
Riggs of Garland county. Announce
ment Of his intention to introduce the
bill was made several weeks ago by
Mr.. Riggs. The bill provides. how
ever, that It shall not be sonstrued
so as to mean that it shall prevent
execution of any process of this state,
civil or criminal, on the premises
ceded to federal jurisdiction.
The bill is destined to give the city
relief from the conflicting jurisdic.
ton between the state and city in
municipal affairs. and, according TO
Representative Riggs, will lead to
many Improvements in the Wapor
City.
By a unanimous vote the House al
so passed the bill by Mrs. Hunt OF
jefferson county providing that NOR
ais and patriotism should be added
to the school curriculum of the state
There were 81 votes cast for the bill
which was opposed by only one speak
er. Representative Hardy of Faulk
ner county. who, when the roll was
called voted for the measure.
]. e. Chambers Of Danville was
sworn in as representative from Vel

election held February 6. Mr.. Cham

With only IL dissenting votes, the
House adopted the proposed consti-
tutional amendment. by Fades and
others. authorizing the various coun-
ties OF the state to vote a tax not TO
exceed 10 mills upon "all taxable
property for the purpose Of paying
off their road bond indebtedness and
for building and maintaining roads.
Adoption of the amendment came
after about an hours debate, consum-
ed mostly by Representative McCul-
Tough of Lee county, one of the ori,
ginators of the resolution, in giving
explanation of its provisions. Rep
resentative Butler of Greene county
was the only speaker against the bill.
Representative Butler was answered
by Representative Belote OF Hot
Spring county.
The resolution is far-reaching in
its provisions, but flexible. and ac-
cording to Representative McCul-
Tough, can work no harships upon the
people. Instead, it is intended to re-
duce the present burdensome taxes
because of the tremendous road in
debtedness of the state, but leaves it
optional with the counties as to
whether they will accept its provis-
ions.
The measure provides that upon
petition of the people, the question
Of whetehr or not tax bill is levied
shall be submitted at an election
This tax, it was said, will not be in
addition to the present improvement
district taxes. This would be taken
care of by a readjustment of assess
ments in the various districts of the
! county to correspond with the tax
voted by the people. 1t is strictly a
countrywide proposition and is left up
to the county whether. or not it will
be put into effect. One county might
vote for a 10-mill tax, another a five
mill tax, while another might vote
for no tax at all, according to the pro-
visions Of the resolution. At the
same time, It does not release prop
erty in the improvement district from
liability for the Indebtedness of the
district and hence no reputation is
possible.
Bills introduced in Senate as fol.
lows:
Mason.-To provide additional
chancellor for the Sevents Chancery
Circuit.
3ailey.-To provide for liabilities

critics.

measure to compel the assessment Of

majority, although over an hour was
consumed in debating It.
