Milliman would expedite di-vorce proceedings for, it is said, the benefit of war hasty brides and grooms while Sen. Sol Sel-vi- n and Rep. Frank Bonacci have both in-troduced a bill which would pre-vent racial discrimination in public places. The house gave its approval to tourteen varied measures last week, none of which developed much debate or opposition. They killed two proposals, one for a constitutional amendment that would permit 18 year olds to vote, the other calling for a cer-tificate of inspection of motor vehicles before transfer of title can be made. Bills they passed included au-thority to tax federal property with the consent of federal auth-orities; enabling counties to set up reserve funds for post war planning and employment; ex-tending the permission for wo-men to work in mines; exten-sion of the soldier voting law; continued abbreviation of the school year to provide farm la-bor and some others of less con- - sequence- The senate disposed of thir-tee- il measures, among them au-thorization for pay increases of 15 per cent in counties of the 1st and 2nd class and 25 per cent in all others; reducing the age of girl attendants at theatres and Other places of amusement to 16; for retirement of Eroviding fire departments, changing the make-u- p of the state board of health to permit ap-pointment of three lay members, and various others making minor technical amendments in exist-ing laws. The big controversitl measures remain to reach the floors of both houses. Thus far it has been a remarkably calm and peaceful gathering with no broken heads or hurt feelings reported yet. But there are plenty of notential fire-works that may begin to explode before very much longer. committee of the house would create a new dairy department in the state department of agri-culture, and so on with minor appeals to the exchequer. These and others are not contemplated in the governor's budget. Nor are the requests for in-creased salaries from everybody in public service from town board members to justice of the state supreme court, including all state elective and appointive officials as well as all employees of the state. The Legislature promises to scrutinize those lists rather minutely. . Other revenue taxing propos-als include the provision for civil service and retirement benefits for non-teachin- g employees of the schools and employees of the state's custodial institutions. There may not be harmony as regards all of these but the past week did produce a notable ex-ample of what harmony can be when representatives of the state's major industries and of the principal unions of organiz-ed labor got together and ironed out their difference on proposed broadening of the scope and benefits of the state workmen's compensation act and the occu-pational disease act. Quite a number of the 112 bills submitted to the house and 123 in the senate give teeth to ex-isting statutes such as welfare provisions making parents and guardians financially responsible for custodial cases where possible and the house agricultural com-mitte- e measure centering respon-- 1 sibility for soil and water con- - Under The Capitol Dome by William T. Igleheart, Utah State Press Association If the voters of Utah don't have new laws to guide them at the next election it won't be because the current twenty-sixt- h session of the state legislature isn't try-ing to frame legislation that will permit them to know just how to vote for whom. Half a dozen bills ranging from an extension of the county at-torney's term to four years, to aJ headless ballot are already in the hoppers of both houses and as the third week of the session concluded Saturday, assurances had been given that additional bills will be submitted to clarify the methods of both voting and counting the votes. There will be no more Maw-Le- e ballot dif-ficulties or their like, say the lawmakers. The legislature really got down to business this past week with all committees in both houses functioning smoothly and turning out the new ones for con-sideration. While the joint ap-propriations committees were subdividing their chore of meet-ing new demands with what money there may be, the demands by no means ceased coming last week's new requests for instance Senator Alonzo Hopkins would create a new centennial commit-tee to plan for 1947 and would give that committee $275,000 to work with.
