| Show UTAH legislature SPEEDS U P WORK FIFTH DAY SHOWS BOTH HOUSES WORKING RAPIDLY adjournment EXPECTED WITHIN SIXTY DAY PERIOD f members and committees of both the house and the senate are showing signs igns of speed and are rapidly clearing the legislative decks of accumulated bills in keeping with the proposal of representative pembroke that all bills be presented in the first forty five days members have thrown the pea peak k load on the decks and except for ne necessary C changes under special order new mew bills have not been received confidence is expressed that it will not mot be necessary to take advantage of stopping the clock and the utah solons are hoping that the present session will end promptly in the sixty days A bill which while adopting some features of the standish stand ish bill for which it Is a substitute would throw more stringent et regulations around both the use and sale of tobacco than anything that has been accomplished under the southwick act which it amends was brought into the state senate by the committee on public affairs and was placed on the second reading calendar boosted as a compromise measure arranged between friend and foes of the stand standish ish measure the bill bears indication that the foes of that bill were at least very much in evidence evidence if not the controlling factor at the conferences of the committee and at times of others who assisted in in reaching this solution of the problem presented to the state in the at tempee literal enforcement of the southwick act the bill amends the southwick law so 0 o its as to permit the sale of ci garets legally in the state instead of requiring persons who would follow the letter of the law and still smoke tobacco in this form to send out of the state for the commodity but before a merchant may sell ci garets he must take out oat a license at an annual fee in no instance less than 25 and in salt lake running as high as this license fee schedule is much higher than that carried in the standish bill while at the same game time the penalty for illegal selling of ci garets is increased from a fine of to one of naturally it is argued the e eeck act will be that persons who operate under the be law and take out a license will support all efforts to prevent illegal sale of ci garets by competitors who do not have such a license and with strict enforcement of the law the license will become a thing of value and any dealer will be slow to run the risk of losing it by the sale of ci garets to minors whereas a wyoming byomin or colorado dealer receiving an order through the t mail nai 1 I will not inquire nor be able to ascertain whether his patron is a minor or not a licensed utah dealer will have opportunity of knowing and will be slow blow to yield to the temptation of making the sale the bill also out southwick in that it provides that tobacco in any form shall not be advertised in the tate state the present law permits the advertising of smoking tobacco or chewing tobacco or tobacco in an any y ther other form except ci garets the amendment to this law Is more stringent in that particular the bill does make some concessions in a modification of section 4 of the southwick act which affects the use vf ot tobacco in what are defined therein as a enclosed public places however a 0 scanning anning ec of this provision will show that in many instances the restaurateur will be unable to comply with this provision without going to lengths which will make him hesitate before ile ie undertakes to alter his premises so as s there was much debate when house bill 65 by cannon relative to storage goods came up for consideration mr cannon explained that it was merely a matter of marking eggs and butter land and other products just what they are ile he pointed out that in many other states when goods are in storage thirty days they cease to be labeled fresh but that in utah they may be marked fresh and sold as fresh after ha haling tiling been in cold storage ninety daas da a goggin of salt lake opposed the till beclar declaring ng that the storage goods were the best and saying cometh ng about people not being able to tell the difference between cold storage and an d fresh eggs mrs dunyon of salt lak lake e took issue with mr goggin and told him how to tell the difference between fresh and storage eggs she said as a housewife she used some storage roods CONIS but she wanted to know what the she was buying baying of salt lake pettit of carbon and shelley of utah uta it and brewer of ogden opposed it it was passed by a vote tote of 41 ayes 7 nays and 7 absent the joint appropriations committee of the legislature submitted to the lower house its report on the budget bill as submitted by governor mabey

apparently has made strenuous effort to augment the advantages of educational institutions of the state having in nearly every instance increased the appropriations suggested for schools and colleges the house debate on senate bill 79 gasoline tax was not long but lively and spirited most of the debate was in regard to minor amendments only two of which were passed these would exempt gas and oil and residue fuel oil along with kerosene which was exempted in the original bill and certain I 1 commercial packages of fuel oil that are shipped in original packages the bill was passed by a big majority but several of the members said they voted aye for the express purpose of moving reconsideration among these were mckell who charged that the bill had been railroaded and and goggin this bill
