Trade In a Good Town — Decatur LEGISLATURE |i (CONTINUED FROM waliy ONW), session is expected to be a mere j formality. Townsend told the legislators that his office was so crowded 1 with flood problems that even the members of the assembly themselves could not get through the halls to see him. As a result. Townsend said, he had absolutely no time to devote to legislative 1 matters and that the flood rav- 1 ages demanded his primary con- 1 sideration. The governor told the caucus it could either take a ten-day holi- i daj' or adjourn the 1937 session I altogether with hfa promise that as soon as the flood situation ■ eased he would call a special session to transact all necessary business. Townsend reminded the caucus that the 1937 legislature already had been in session for 22 days without accomplishing much, and in view of other emergencies the adjournment could be taken easily. The caucus lasted less than half an hour before agreement was reached on the ten day recess. When Townsend's proposal first became known, opposition arose from farm areas to a later session. ! many pointing out that too long a . delay would bring the session into the farm planting season. Others thought the legislature should stay in session to dpal with any flood emergencies. Townsend. 1 however, observed that many of 1 the assembly members could be of ! assistance in their own communities and won the adjournment agreement. Two of Townsend's flood pro- ' posals were given instantaneous action yesterday afternoon. Under ' suspension of the rules a bill was , passed appropriating $250,000 for ' men in the flood areas, and a resoexpenses of the national guards--1 lution was approved immediately j J extending the gross income tajt 1 payment date to April 15 in the ( counties bordering the Ohio river, t Otherwise, the assembly conJ fined itself to routine procedure, . filing an avalanche of petty bills. 42 measures being introduced into the house alone. These included proposals for licensing private detectives, controlling hog cholera, regulating street carnivals, forbidding bar-1 maids and waitresses in taverns > or restaurants serving liquor, pro--5 tiding free clinics, and various . other majttcrs. . Chairman Martin Downey and I his judiciary A committee were given most of the proposals, prob- , ably to suppress for the adminiss tration. ’ Markets At A Glance ’ Stocks: strong and active. U.
