| highways, referred to the committee
on highways. l now move that the
Senate reconsider the vote whereby
| they referred such bill to the COM
mittee on highways.
The motion was agreed to.
Mr.. FOSTER of kennebec: ,Ir.
President, if 1T is in order | wish to
say that this bill was referred to
the committee on highways after
very careful consideration. and if it
is in order | would insist on the bill
! going to that committee. The bill
has to do particularly with the TAX
| ing up and reconstructing of State
| highways. 1t is an administration
measure. The State Highway Com
mission are very much in favor of
the substance of the bill. For that
reason it seems to me that it has
been designated to the proper COM
| mittee.
