The governor's bill to lexalize prefes. slonal baseball on Sunday afterrjona was ! the subject of mueh discussion b the cor- ridors of the capitol. It was not possible to note a decided drift of epinion one wWay or the othef, When the veta ig taken up the metion will be on the 7uunhm of the passage of the bill notwithstanding. There will be no discussion of the bill itself, henee the interest among the members was in getting individual opinions en the veto message. It is anticipated that the Bl will be taken off the table the firat thing tomorrow. ' The long and vigorous debate for most of today's sitting In the house was led by Mr. Nickerson of Corawall, who has boen tabling bills for special appropri- ations until, as he sald, “he could leok into them.” This action began last week and he continued it today on calendar matters from the appropriations commit- tee until the board of control one-million doliar hill was taken off the tahle by him. This is the bill which Governor Lake mentioned in a message yesterday as the one requiring immediate consider- ation, as departments neoded money and the state treasury was low. Mr. Nickerson offered an amendment which was finally accepted that the at- torney-general be required te pass upen the various items in the list of depart- { mental and Institutional deficits due to | outgo sreater than appropriations made two years 2. He claimed that the time had come W stop the practice of heads of deparimeats spending more money than the general assembly had alletted them. He called attention to the penal statuie which applied to heads of de- partments and officers who spend more than their limit. Mr. Buckley opposed the amendment sgying that in every case the item was for money which had already been Spent. The bill would have to be pald and he did not believe that any officer of the state had spent money wrongly. The deficits were due because of econemic couditions over which no oe had comtrol. The department heads twe years ago had made thelr estimates and heen allotted money. Conditlons became such that it cost more to run a department. The fact was put before Governor Holeomh and there was nmo vemedy. The alternative would have been to step the functiosfng of the denartment or institution, This 1 | | had to be contracted. The state board of control had looked into these items. An emergeney exists which had to ba met by a previous allotment of $1,000.600, and now this sum and possibly -by sums yet to be asked. Mr, Duckley opposed tho amendment further hecause the pay- mert of iterns would be held up during the inquiry. Mr. Nickerson c:lsnlme\it nu; n'lc lme‘n?‘; ment gave opportunty for inquiry in each item axfim admitted that some of them would be held in abeyance. A member Inquired why a law was net made to punish an official who spenda more than this appropriation and Mr. Nickerson sald there was enough law Row, but the statute whieh would send a department officer to prison is nat ap- plied. Mr. Buckley held that there was no crookedness in the spending of the meney. The officers were merely the vietims of conditions unforeseen. Phe amended hill was adepted and sent to the senate. Mr. Eaton of the appre- priations commitfee laid in as an ex- Tibit a list of the jtems contained in and vered bythebill. coTha house after a debate Tecommitted the bill which would protect rabdits by forbidding the use of ferrets.
