Virginia Senate
1oAct Today on
Poll Tax Ban
Chamber Faces Busy
Closing Week; House
Calendar Is Light
By the Assoeiotsd Press

RICHMOND, Va, Mar. 4.-Mem-
bers of the General Assembly were
70 reconvene at noon today, deter
mined to clear crowded calendars of
pajor Legislation before Friday
Shen Winston Churchill will address
a joint House-Senate session on the
eve of the Assembly's adjournment.
Much major legislation has piled
up in the Senate, while the House
calendar is comparatively clear of
important measures. Both Houses,
hoEever, must yet act on consider
able minor legislation.
Under agreement entered into 10
days ago by joint resolution, the
Senate, beginning today, will con-
Eder only bills which originated in
the House and the necessary rev.
enue measures. In like manner, the
House will work on Senate bills ex-
cluSively.
Poll Tax Ban on Top.
First on the Senate calendar, after
routine business, was the controver-
sial suffrage legislation recon-
mended by legislative commission
With the objective of abolishing the
poll tax as a prerequisite to voting
and Tightening up the registration
OF voters and other laws in an effort
to prevent frauds and Irregularities
in Virginia elections.
Most of the fight will be centered
on the lengthy amending resolution
which, If passed by the Senate, will
have to lay over for repassage by
both houses of the 1948 session be-
fore 1t can be submitted to the voters
In a referendum. However, one of
the implementing bills-the one Gre
at1ng central State board of elec-
tions to supervise all elections in
the Commonwealth-will share the
spotlight of the opposition along
with the resolution.
Under the pending bills, the pro-
posed State board of elections would
have no constitutional authority, its
powers and duties being purely stat
utory and granted under the broad
authority which would be vested in
the Assembly.
Could Reassess Poll Tax.
One Of the chief objections voiced
by Senators to the proposed con-
stitutional amendments is that un-
der them the General Assembly will
have the power to reimpose the poll
tax as a qualification for voting
even though the amendment speci-
flcally repeals the present poll tax.
BY the device of a head tax on
persons over 81, proponents of the
pending legislation hope to accom-
plish the dual purpose of plugging
a hole in the States revenue and
at the same time provide a means
for the annual reregistration of
voters without requiring them to
appear in person every year before
the registrar. This is to be accom-
plished through a provision in the
Constitution that persons who pay
all personal taxes before they become |
delinquent-which would include
the head tax, income and personal
property taxes-would be reregister-
ed automatically as voters, provided
they were originally registered.
Besides the suffrage legislation
which is the Senate's special order
of business for today, that cham
ber is likely to get both Gov. Tuck's
road tax program and the Moncure-
Locher Labor Bill tomorrow. The
general appropriations bill, carrying
appropriations in the neighborhood
of 1920 ,000,0 900 is slated for floor con-
sideration Wednesday or Thursday

you can add matching vests, if you still shiver or shake. :.
 If you're the type who grows itchy even at the sight of woolen undies, settle for rayon or cotton knits. Be- cause they're snug, these are also Q defense against winter winds.
 Add as top layer woolens to your regular wardrobe of suits, some blouses and sweaters. Luckily, pull on sweaters have made the grade as smart adjuncts to suits. Wearing cardigan-style sweaters, new old fashioned stoles, or fascinators over woolen dresses will keep teeth from chattering.
 Sleeping in flannels, not flimsies will keep you from catching 8 chill, and will guarantee you a better nights rest. Ankle-high knit or fur booties are a better choice for pad ding feet than mules, which leave heels open to Jack Frost's nips.
 And last, don't wear tight cloth- ing which flinders circulation. The freer the blood is to course to all parts of your body, the warmer you'll be. For that reason, let out @ reef in belts and wristbands. Swap round garters, which are constrict- ing, for girdle tabs that's aren't. Make certain your girdle fits, though. A too-tight girdle will also cut circulation and make you feel the cold more than you should.
