Special Session Ends Crowded With State Issues
The Montana legislature ends a 12 day special session aimed at farmers in dry counties and state affairs. It rejected broad relief, favored county aid, and debated Higgins food bill and anti profiteering measures. The body backed national packing industry reform and expanded the supreme court to five justices. Woman suffrage ratification and highway law changes were added. A liberal party movement forms a 48 member committee, predicting realignment and a split of old parties, though leaders doubt its impact.
