Adjournment
of Legislature is
Still Week Off
Appropriation Bills and Renewed
Power Question Spoil Plans for
Saturday Adjournment.
LINCOLN, May 31 (UP) Unicam
eral observers today saw little possi
bility of linal adjournment Saturday
and estimated that the legislature
would finish its record-breaking ses
sion a week from today.
Three things, it was contended,
blocked a possible final adjournment
by Saturday niht. They v. i e : Un
certainty as to the amount of time
the appropriations bill will impend on
select file; how long the hjdro dis
tricts will take to re-establish or
maintain their domination of the
power drive; and third, v. hot her or
not the members will adhere to their
agreement to consider all of the
forty-three sifting bills.
The consensus was that amend
ment will be offered lo the appropria
tions bill, increasing state assistance
from ?8, 220, 000 to $8,4GC.0(0. Pro
ponents of the increase, who failed
to hike the amount to fS.SOO.OuO on
general (lie said a 1 per cent increase
of administrative expenses will lop
off f S2.000; that $03,000 for crippled
children waso rigkially intended as
an erthepedic hospital attachment
and that someo f the counties may
refuse to contribute toward adminis
tration expenses.
