A spirited attack on the right of eminent domain given the industrial commission in. Senate Bill 19 was made in the house by Reishus, Twica- ell and Burtness, of the minority. Reishéis precipitated the discusion by otffermg an amendment striking from the bill the section conferring this right. His amendment was re- jected, and objection was ratsed to a milder form ot amendment offered by Burtness, with a plea for the unani- rious consent of the house to permit its introduction. would have le that the right of eminent domain not be exer- cised to deprive, any citizen of the United States residing in North Da- kota of his home or homestead unless the state of North Dakota, through its Home Building association, should require such property for own use, \ .

Burtness declared he would favor financing experiments in state ownership and operation of ter- minal elevators and flour mills to the extent of $2,000,000; bt that he did not believe the state should go furth- er. He read statistics furnished hjm by Dr. Ladd of the agricultural col- lege tending to prove that much could be accomplished ‘with a great deal less than five millions. :, Burtness gtat- ed that he had. for years favored state-owned terminal elevators and the operation pf flour mills in connec- tion with them, but he insisted that the doors of al sol- wording of the bill allows too much/ gency clause. As the act now reads, _WEDNESDAY; FEB. 19,- 1919.- the senate bill was playing too high a limit. But 32 votes were registered against the mill and elevator bill and only 34 against the home builders’ bill, both of which passed with the two-thirds majority necessary to give them im- mediate effect.
