This rule, adopted this ses- |sion for the first time, provides that no bills except revenue and appropriation bills may be consid- |ered after the 56th day, which was ! Sunday. This rule led to several contro- | versies as to whether a bill comes |under a revenue or appropriation | classification if it makes an inci- | dental appropriation or if it amends {a revenue Aot. | The major battle over the appli- |cation came, however, when Rep. | Barnett asked for a reconsidera- |tion of his vote on H. B. 105 and | Speaker Gill ruled that the time |for such action had passed and |informed him that the bill had |Leen sent to the Governor. | Under the new rule, the Speaker explained, there could be no con- | sideration of such a bill after the 1561}1 day.

No appropriation or tax is carried in either bill. The two are: Senator Walker's “Bill for Industrial Peace”—S. B. 93, and Rep. Anita Garnick's “Equal Pay for Equal Work Act"—H. B. 81. The Garnick measure would put women on equal pay status with men. The Walker bill would re- quire unions to incorporate in order to engage in collective bargaining, put equal contract responsibility of unions and employers and re- quire arbitration preceding strikes or lockouts. e HOSPITAL NOTES St. Ann’'s Hospital admitted How- ard Youngman and Harry Halofl B. 80 showed: ’ yesterday. ‘There were no dis- charges Government Hospital had nothing to report B Sell it with an Empire Want-ad! | TUESDAY, MARCH 25, 1947 At the Nugget Shop. ..
