4 NEWS OFLEGISLA TURE LEGISLATORS GO HOME TEL MONDAY Adjournment Taken in Both Branches li'ast Night After Very Short Sessions Both branches of the Legislature adjourned last evening until 9 o'clock on Monday night. The decision to hold up the Sproul resolution caused a change in plans and as the commit tees had not yet gotten fairly started the leaders decided to quit. Neither branch was in session very long yesterday. The House held very brief meetings and the Senate was in session a little time. In the House the Daix resolution which practically establishes h budget was passed as it came from the Sen ate. This resolution does not have to go to the government, but if there is anything that cannot be found out about expenditures of the State gov ernment under it the item must be elusive. In effect it gives the House the information on how every dollar was spent and what every dollar is wanted for in the next two years. During the llnal meeting Speaker Baldwin referred about thirty bills. Mr. Siggins, Warren, introduced bills to lix salaries of county commis sioners in all counties of the State and to pay county audttors $lO per day employed. He also presented a bill to appropriate $327,500 to Warren State hospital. Over 20 appropriation bills were also presented. Other bills submitted were: Mr. Strauss, Berks—Authorizing supervisors of second-class townships to levy taxes on residents of districts benefited for lighting of highway. Mr. Gans. Philadelphia—Fixing sal aries of clerks in State departments of Philadelphia treasurer's office. Mr. Hough, Allegheny—Appropriat ing $437,833.44 to the western peni tentiary. The first bill to be reported from committee was one relative to the York county poor board's right to is sue bonds. Mr. Whitaker, Chester, re ported it.

Baldwin, both of which are likely to be adopted next wee* and are considered forward steps in legislative procedure. In one he asked the mem bers to consider the advisability of en forcing House Rule No. 39, which de fines those who may walk upon the floor of the House of Representatives while it is in session and the other has to do with sessions lasting five days a week lor two weeks to be fol lowed by a nine-dav recess. The lobbyists will feel the force of the rule which was one of the (hob bies of Speaker George E. Alter in the 1913 session. It has long been on the House list of "don'ts," but has seldom been enforced. It definitely limits the privilege of the floor of the House to members, accredited newspaper cor respondents, former members of the House when first presented by a sit ting member and heads of the various State departments. It is from the standpoint of the interference with the business of the House and the incon venience to the members that the lobby- may be banished to the outer walls and not so much from the al leged harm, that lobbyists are sup posed to do. The recess proposition was men tioned in the Telegraph a few days ago. It has been a matter to which the Speaker has been giving consid erable attention. In a few words late yesterday after noon Speaker Baldwin outlined his views on the recess question in this way: 'iAt the present time we are meeting one and one-half days a week. That makes it impossible for the members from the rural sections who must travel a long distance to get home for any number of days. The expense feature is also important. What I would ask the House to do is to consider the proposition of meeting four or five days a week for two weeks in the early months of the session and then recessing for nine days or until the following Monday a week. This will not delay legislation—on the con trary it will expedite the bills'. When we would leave Harrisburg for the recess everything would be cleaned up and we would be at home waiting for the grist of bills to come from the Senate. In addition, the far-traveling country member could get home for a considerable stay and would feel that his incidental expense was well spent. As it is the nearby members can get home at any time, but the farmer boys must stay over here indefinitely. This could not be done in the later weeks of the session but in the next two months it might be found both an efficient and convenient thing to do." In his remarks on the question of enforcing Rule 39 the Speaker asked that the members be ready to decide their attitude on it next when they return, and if they are agreeable to it he would be pleased to carry out their thoughts. He said when asked about the rule that it was not aimed at lobbyists entirely and did not want the term "lobbyist" to be misunderstood because he said there were many measures in which thou sands in the State are interested that are lobbied for by reputable persons. What he does want to prevent is the indiscriminate use of the aisles of the House by persons and all lobbyists while the House is in session. i'lt Is disconcerting to the members to have their constituents constantly running to their seats to speak to them about legislation and often times matters that have no connection with the Legislature." said he. There should be seats reserved in the beauti ful House gallery for the families of members and other seats for their friends. I would favor taking the chairs out of the side aisles and give the members some privacy where they would be free from interruption. This Is an important matter as it will save time to the members and expenses to the State." OXLY THREE APPEALS Sunbury, Pa., Jan. 31.—But three ap peals from the assessments of money at interest were made at the session of the county commissioners set for this purpose yesterday.

Strouse Street SUNDAY FISHING EAGERLY SOUGHT Maurer Bill Outlines Some of the Arguments in Favor of f the Proposition A new reason for permitting fish- j ing on Sunday was given by James H. j Maurer, the Reading Socialist and i labor in a measure which he introduced in the House. Fishing on Sunday, as everyone knows, nowadays reduces the high cost of living—pro viding the fisherman catches any fish. But*here's Maurer's reason: "Whereas the day of rest commonly called Sunday was made for man and not man for Sunday; and "Whereas innocent recreation on the day of rest Injures none, but on the contrary conduces to better phys ical and moral well' being; and "Whereas to man tired by six days of labor the art of fishing affords an opportunity of rest and relaxation and an acquaintance with nature denied during the days of toil; and ''Whereas the span of human life is short enough without making it shorter by absurd laws that accom plish no material good, but simply tend to arouse resentment in those not limited by selfish creeds and beliefs: "Therefore be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of Pennsylva nia, in General Assembly met, and it Is hereby enacted by the authority of the same. That it shall be lawful to fish on the day commonly called Sun day.''

After Jack Ozar, of Valley College, and Mike Yokel, of Salt Lake City, had wrestled for two h rs and four mln utea last night without a fall.
