BATTLES LOO NJ
AS LEGISLATURE
CONVENES IN VA.
Schools, Tax, and Penal
Programs Waiting
BY GEORGE M. GREEN

Dy NGOASOG NAs NAASA
RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 12.-Vir-
ginia's legislature meets in joint
session at noon today to be ad-
dressed by Governor George Peery
on a wide program of progressive
Legislation, following the Demo
cratic caucus, which closed last
night.
No legislature in recent years
has been confronted with pro-
posed laws of such far.reaching
Importance, and the accompany
ing problems of taxation to carry
them on.
FREE TEXT BOOKS SOUGHT
Foremost among the matters to
be disposed of will be the three
point educational plan, which
proposes free text books for public
schools, increased pay for teach
ers, and pensions for retiring edu-
Gators.
The legislators also will wrestle
with the enactment of old-age
assistance laws to supplement the
unemployment compensation pro
vided by the recent special ses-
sion. The social-security program
promises to bring up spirited con-
troversy.
Another measure certain to pro-
vide considerable fireworks is a
sales-tax proposal to finance the
new legislative program. The plan
is expected to meet strong opposi-
ton from the northern counties.
BILLBOARDS WAR LOOMS
Elimination Of billboards from
Virginia highways is another mat
ter due for heated debate, and
revision Of the capitation, or
poll" tax also is controversial
matter.
Advocates of the abolition of
the local Jail and substitution of
regional farms as corrective inSti-
tutions, together with the inau-
guration of the indeterminate SEN
tence into penal procedure are
ready to battle for these reforms,
and measures aimed at revamp-
ing the entire Jail system are sure
to appear.
Gov..Elect James H. Price will
preside over the sessions of the
senate until Wednesday, when he
will take his oath as governor.

d. C.. to Slash
Rate on Fire
Insurance

District officials indicated to-
day a slash in fire insurance rates
may be ordered within the next
two months.
Authorities were reluctant to
estimate the amount local property
owners will save if the order be-
comes effective, but intimated it
would be less than $1,000,000 an
nually.
They recalled that j. B. Moor,
District insurance commissioner,
reported to Congress last year a
rate reduction should save about
s1,000,000. Subsequently, how
ever, this amount was disputed by
Albert P. Jordan, an insurance
expert, on the basis of an
analysis of the underwriting bust
ness of Washington.
Since then, Moor has completed
another survey of insurance rates
here, particularly fire insurance.
1t is the new Moor study, author
tiles said. which will be used to
support the proposed reduction.
