Senator Douglas Seeks Lawful Money From Treasury
The Illinois Democrat tested a $20 Federal Reserve note at a Senate hearing, asking Secretary Dillon to redeem it in lawful money. Dillon admitted confusion over the note’s wording, as the U S had been off the gold standard for decades. Jerome Shay later provided another $20 note, confirming its lawful status, though Douglas said he has had limited success with such requests, occasionally receiving $20 silver dollars.

Ohio Solons Overrode DiSalle Veto In Week Start
Ohio's Republican legislature overridden a second veto by Gov Michael DiSalle as the 25th work week began. Senate 27 10 approved reducing the corporate franchise tax on Cincinnati's lone open end investment firm from three to one mills. House 97 28 backed the override. The session saw six of eight gubernatorial vetoes rejected so far, with additional enactments signed or allowed to become law. The Senate also advanced an anti billboard regulation aligned with federal interstate highway rules, seeking a $10 million federal bonus. The measure, passed 33 4 after attempts to amend, would ban billboard salons across Ohio's 1,690 miles of Interstates except where municipal zoning allows business. The highway director may require illegal signs removed within 669 feet of interstates at owner cost if not withdrawn.
