DONE
DURING WEEK
At CAPITAL
Legislators Accomplish Practic-
ally Nothing Toward Solving
Major Problems
BY GEORGE E. HELMER
United Press Staff Correspondent

SACRAMENTO. March l6. UP)-
California legislators ended the
second week of their spring session
today with the knowledge that
practically nothing officially had
been done toward solving important
financial, economic and social
problems confronting them.
Only one major development
stood out from the routine activi-
ties this week. It was the fight
over resolution approving the
Townsend plan in all its details.
Settlement of this controversy was
postponed until next week, or un-
til administration forces can swing
enough strength in the senate to
reverse an upper house decision
rejecting the resolution.
Most action during the week oc-
CURED in committee meetings, and
even three members played an is
sue-dodging game, delaying consid-
Grafton of such controversial sub
iects as income taxes, increased
sales and gasoline taxes, state aid
for self-help cooperatives and 9TH
er revenue and unemployment
measures.
AS a result of postponed meet
ings, the third weeks calendar is
crowded with important committee
sessions which may mark the start
of intensive work on hundreds of
bills.
More stringent regulations and
higher license fees will be recon-
mended to the legislature as a re-
suit of study by a special senate
liquor committee.
There was action in both houses
on bill providing free motor We
hicle licenses for machines used
by self-cooperatives. The measure
was approved and sent to the gov
ernor for his signature.
Changes in the marriage license
law, to benefit couples and county
clerks, neared final passage. The
assembly approved a bill permit
ting licenses to be issued to one
applicant, rather than two. The
state agreed that license fees should
be postponed when a couple files
notice of intention to we'd.
The assembly has approved more
than 100 bills, most of them of
technical or routine nature. The
legislature as a whole has some
3400 TO consider.

Road Consolidation

On Monday the board of county
supervisors will consider q plan
whereby the five existing county
road districts will be consolidated
into one with a great saving of time
and expense, b. M. Graham. Braw-

Under this plan which will prob
ably be adopted by the board, with
but one district under the supervis-
ion of a competent engineer, n
greater efficiency could be MANI
tanned as equipment could be shift
ed from one district to another and
improvements could be continued
through present district boundary
lines, it was said
Graham pointed out that other
counties have put this plan into
effect with most satisfying results.
