Senate action eyed on Henshaw resolution in Berkely county
In Senate circles last night a resolution introduced by H. K. Henshaw of Berkely county was discussed with a plan to move it to the floor tomorrow. Indications suggest it will be overwhelmingly defeated if brought out. The judiciary committee may avoid reporting it, prompting a drive to force a floor consideration for the measure. Governor Gore showed concern over recall action on appointive lists from Governor E. Morgan. Little knowledge of the governor’s plans existed among senators, and no surprise was seen at the executive offices.
