Cat licensing bill delayed in Massachusetts House
The Massachusetts cat licensing and unlicensed feline extermination bill stayed on the House calendar but was not acted on amid extended debate. Opponents hail delays as a chance to flood lawmakers with protests while supporters push for Governor vetoes if it passes. President Rowley of the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals opposes the bill in its present form, arguing it would foster cruelty.

Governor Delays Rail Stock Decision Amid Federal Talks
Governor Walsh delays legislative plan on disposing of the Boston and Maine stock held by the Boston Railroad Holding Company as federal talks with Thomas W. Gregory and Moorfield Storey continue. The proposed law would require an absolute separation from the New Haven and place stock under five trustees with a sale deadline and possible Commonwealth purchase. Legislators debate referendum and penalties while Senator Hobbs and others weigh the bill's fairness and scope. Representative Washburn cites issues of board self restraint and Wilson's offer related to the Federal Reserve Board.
