Lawmakers Defend Integrity in Trade Rumor Debates
In the House, Mr Bennett of Saugus accused colleagues of trading votes on the governor’s veto of a trades union bill. Cambridge chair Mr Myers dismissed the claim as baseless. Springfield’s Mr Stone denied hearing any deal, praising the House's nonpartisan conduct. Multiple members paid tribute, and bills on court witnesses, a New Bedford bridge, district attorney salary, and Marlboro labor troubles proceeded or were acted upon.
