Senate Kills Health Dept. Legalization Workmen's Compensation and Gold Tax Exemp- tion Bills Also Fail Several of the major and most controversial pieces of legislation of the 15th session fell by the wayside in the Senate this morning. By a vote of four to four the Senate refused to accept a House bill which would legalize the Territorial Department of Health. The De- partment now will have to continue to operate as an appendage of the office of Commissioner of Health for at least anpther two years. Vot~ ing to admit the bill were Senators Don Carlos Brownell, Hjalmar Nor- dale, Norman R. Walker and Henry Roden. Also refused by the Senate was Rep. Harvey Smith’s bill to amend the workmen's compensation act. The thrée votes hecessary to block the measure were cast by Senators 0. D. Cochran, C. H LaBoyteaux and Leroy Sullivan. Gold Tax Bill Killed Killed by a vote of two to six was a bill to increase revenue from the gross gold tax by reducing the| amount of gold production each op- eration is allowed as exemption from $20,000 to $10,000. Only Senators voting for the bill were Brownell and Walker. Another of the major bills of the session, that of Rep. John McCor- mick to overhaul the juvenile code, came out of Education Committee today with a “do not pass” recom- mendation, Brownell failing to con- 2 ur. Both Houises were to meet again at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon.
