REASONS FOR
SPECIAL MEET
STILL SECRET

CONTINUED from page one)
sans is as sharply drawn as it was
ct the last session this may give
Lieutenant Governor Walter Mad
dock, Nonpartisan, the deciding vote
in the senate organization.
To Use Same Organization
The idea of the Independents, al
expressed by leaders today, was that
the same house organisation which
was effective ct the last session will
be formed for the special session,
This would make John w. Carr,
jamestown, speaker at the special
session as he was at the regular ses.
sion.
Speculation as to the length OF
the session was second only to spec.
ulation regarding the contents Of
the governors message and q sharp
difference of opinion was apparent
Some legislators came prepared
to stay for at least three weeks and
perhaps for the full so days per.
mitted by the constitution. Others
including som. Independent leaders
were certain that the lawmakers
would be home again within q week,
The latter idea has as its back.
ground the thought that the
legislature might do well to
put the governor in his place
by calmly listening to his mes.
sage and then refusing to dc
anything about the matters which
he presents for consideration.
1t is not expected that the latter
view will prevail, however, since the
political consequences, in the minds
of some Independent leaders, might
not be all they could wish.
Mill Situation Up. erm0st
The presumption is that the gov
ernor will present in some detail the
situation existing at the state mill
and elevator at Grand Forks. If he
demands an Investigation Of his ad.
ministration of the mills affairs and
the legislature decides to go deeply
into the matter, there is no telling
how long the session will last. Com.
ment heard in hotel Hobbies, however
would indicate there there is little
general desire for an investigative
session which would drag along fol
several weeks longer.
Some Of the members were
said to he carrying pet" bills
in their pockets when they ar
rived here, planning to take ad'
vantage Of the special session
TO relieve come Of the ills of theil
constituents. The general DISPOSE
ton Of leaders on both tides, how
ever, is not to throw down the bar.
for consideration of matters othel
than those presented in the COVER
nor's message and such matters a!
may be related to them.
That reports Of the acti N. Of thu
special committee appointed by tn,
senate at the last session to investi
gate the mill and elevator will b.
presented by that body is being
taken for granted.
