He believes that the assembly can get
just about twice as much work done
and hence get through in el.out half
the usual time, if it's members will
stay here for regular business sessions
and committee hearings on Saturdays
and Mondays.
It is understood that Lieutenant
Governor Horton has the whole-heart-
ed backing of most of the senators
from the western part of the State in
this move, including Senators A. Hall
Johnston, of Buncombe; Kelly Ben
nett, of Swain, and most of the 9TH
ers from the west. 1t is agreed that
if the senators from the Piedmont
and west and the representatives
from the same sections will join in
this move that they can overrule the
members from the eastern counties
who for years have been making it a
habit to leave Raleigh Friday after
noon and remain until Monday night.
Nearby Members Save.
The members of the General AS
sembly who live within from one to
five hours driving distance from Ra-
leigh-which includes most of those
from the east and middle Piedmont
like to spend their week-ends at home
since by so doing they save three days
hotel bills, which are large, also the
cost of meals and other items. So for
years this group has been insisting
upon adjournment of both houses
soon after noon on Fridays, with NO
business to be transacted until Mon
day night or Tuesday, leaving the
western members who cannot go
home to hold perfunctory session
Saturday morning. This means tina,
virtually the only real work by the
legislature and the only important
committee meetings are held on Tues
days, Wednesdays and Thursdays, al
though the members are paid SO
day, six days a week.
