, Peterson Amendment
Lincolq, March 18. (Special.)
The constitutional convention pro
vided for an industrial court com
mission: An amendment to the
proposal gives the right to appeall
trom the commission 10 me su
preme court.
A discussion over the mentsiof
the rural credits system, combined
with the proposal to raise the limit
to which the state could go in debt,
took up some time? The proposal
has been amended so that the state
may go into debt-to any limit, in
stead of $100,000, the present limit.
An amendment by Peterson was
passed extending the rural credit
idea to include all co-operative so
cieties organized under the law.
The present plan'would permit land
owners to borrow unlimitedly from
the state, but offers no relief to the"
poor man.
