Meanwhile the house was preparing
for night sessions to begin next week
in an effort to clear its calendar Of
house bills which must be sent to the

The plan contemplates night sessions

Governor May "D0 the Cutting"
Interest centers on the reaction Of
Nonpartisan house members to the
agricultural college appropriation, due
largely to the fact that rumors
cmanatfng from the governors office
have indicated that he may slice GER

The latest declaration from the
governors office in regard to the

A. proposed habitual criminal stat

Of New York, was defeated by the
senate judiciary committee today.
The bill, drawn up ut the recon-
mendation Of North Dakota states at

had passed the house, but was killed
in the senate committee without dis
senting vote.
It would have made criminals sub
jcct to life imprisonment, at the dis
erection Of the court, on their fourth
offcnse and was less drastic than the
Baumes law.
Another house bill that would es-
tablish a heavier penalty for Gag

short order by the committee.

Plan Outlined For
Getting Land Needed
For Roosevelt Park

A plan for obtaining the land nee
cssary for the proposed Roosevelt
National Park in the North Dakota
Badlands is contained in resolu-
ton recently adopted by the house
of representatives.
1t suggests that the state trade
with the national government school
lands lying within the propos ed
boundaries for federal land Of equal
worth situated elsewhere. All of the
land within the proposed park limits
then would be owned by the federal
government and the creation Of the
park would be simplified. r. @. Sig
