Other important legislation was passed as emergency measures, placing them in effect upon signature of the governor. Of the 100 laws, 43 originated in the house and 57 in the senate. One of the important new laws which became effective Monday is that abolishing the presidential pri- mary election. Under this new law the state will pick its national party delegates and presidential elector nominees at party conventions rather than at a special primary election for the purpose. Also effective Monday was a law creating the state highway patrol, for which six appointments are in the hands of Highway Commissioner W. J. Flannigan and Acting Governor Wel- ford. Other senate-sponsored laws which become effective include one tighten- ing enforcement of the cigaret tax laws and a law providing for alter- nate jurors, while house-sponsored ious cities of the state. One of the most bitterly-fought measures in the house which was halted from becoming law Monday by @ referendum petition filed against it was house bill 7—the state weighing and grading act, providing for state inspection of livestock at all slaughter houses, concentration points and Stockyards. A house measure which narrowly escaped death in the senate, but fi- nally became law, will give to those legislators who attended the “William Langer” special session of July, 1934, @ total sum of $6,000. Not included in the estimate of 100 laws ‘are the various appropriation measures passed by both houses for various Purposes. Other measures which were passed as non-emergency acts, and which have been prevented from going into effect by referendum action are laws legalizing the sale of hard liquor in the state; the increased state income tax, and @ measure increasing juris- diction of police magistrates in cities of 5,000 or more population. Although referendum action has been filed against the sales tax law, it remains in operation unless de- coat ae @ special election set for EXPECT NO IMMEDIATE Quartet in Limelight as Murder Case Looms With murder rather than suicide indicated by an autopsy as the cause of the death of Howard Carter Dick- inson under mysterious circumstances in Detroit, this quartet, now in cus- tody, was in a tight spot Monday. At the left is William Lee Ferris, caught in a police trap at Fort Wayne, Ind., whose three versions of Dickinson’s “suicide” are discredited by investigators. Below are three De- troit show girls taken into custody with Ferris. Left to right they are Lillian Miller, 24; Loretta Jackson, 27; and Flossie Jackson, 24, According to Ferris, he and the three girls were out for an automo- bile ride with Dickinson, New York attorney and nephew of Chief Justice Hughes, when the mysterious death occurred, Prosecutor Duncan C. McCrea Mon- day expressed the opinion that Dick- inson was slain, with robbery appar- ently the motive... He said there is no ‘evidence to show the girls were in the plot. Prosecutor McCrea late Monday said that Jean Miller, also known as Lillian Winters, told him that Dick- inson was shot and killed while Fer- tis was trying to rob him. This dovetailed wit his belief ex- pressed earlier that robbery was the motive in the slaying and supplied the missing element—the motive—in PRICE FIVE CENTS House Rejects Utilities Proposal DEFIES ROOSEVELT WITH REFUSAL T0 HIT HOLDING FIRMS Votes 216 to 146 Against Pres- Ident’s Wishes as Embodied in Senate Provision WASN'T STRAIGHT-OUT TEST, Executive Would Eliminate ‘Uns necessary’ Holding Compan- les After Seven Years ‘Washington, July 1—(?)—President Roosevelt's request for legislation to abolish “unnecessary” utility holding companies by 1942 was turned down Monday by the house, The vote was 216 to 146 against the president’s wishes. Climaxing one of the most bitter legislative disputes in recent years, the vote was studied for its reflection of the president's present conrol over the house. It was not a straight-out test, how- ever, as no roll call vote was taken. Administration supporters contended more votes for the president would have been obtained if a record had been kept. ‘The vote was on whether to adopt the senate provision to eliminate in the case, The Miller woman was the first of the three girls arrested with Ferris, and who were with him on the fatal ride, to be questioned in detail.

Suicide was one of the explanations given officers by William Lee Ferris, 26, in statements after his arrest as & suspect. Dr. Kallman said he believed the shot through the chest was fired first, but that the direction in which it passed through the body indicated that “Dickinson couldn't have reach- ed around that far in that direction to fire it.” Both Would Be Fatal “Both of the shots, the one through the body, the other through the head,” the medical examiner said, “would cause death in less than a& minute. He couldn't have fired one shot and lived long enough to shoot the second time. The shot through his head was fired from the left.” Recorder’s Judge Christopher E. Stein postponed for 48 hours a hear- ing on a habeas corpus writ sought by Ferris when Prosecutor Duncan C. McCrea, told the court he would is- sue a murder warrant within 24 hours. Ferris, called “a liar” by Prosecu- tor McCrea, underwent renewed ques- tioning by detectives and the prosecu- tor, who said they were not satisfied with his three versions of the slaying.
