Senate Defeats Plan to Run Soldier Aid Fund
Senators Beck Cavanaugh and Reed failed to amend the $10,000 soldier aid bill to put a Legislature committee over the Governor's Council in disbursing aid. The bill moved to engrossment in its original form favored by Governor Coolidge after a 14 to 17 vote against the change. The legal affairs panel withdrew Edward Keevin’s boxing bill, allowing public six round bouts in cities over 40 000. The public health committee also backed a Dorchester Board of Trade petition making tenants and landlords liable for building sanitation.
