Favorable reports were noted on several bills including a 3 percent cap on annual gross receipts for bus companies and general zoning laws for multiple towns. Bills authorizing bonds for North Canaan and changes to highway laws were discussed, with debate over insurance and bonds for convicted drivers. The game bill spurred protest from Mr Bugbee while Mr Wheeler and Mr Clark debated fishery, gunning, and button requirements before the measure was adopted despite objections. Bills were rejected on prohibiting certain attorneys from civil suits, bonding county detectives, and confirming Fethel Cemetery association condemnation funds.
