Attempt To Force Reapportionment Bills Defeated
In Alabama the attempt by Sen Vernon L. St John to force four reapportionment bills onto the calendar failed in committee. The effort would have created a constitutional amendment by bypassing the Calendar, and the move mirrored a prior failed attempt on a "bone dry" constitutional revision. The Senate, with James A. Simpson presiding, ruled the measures to the Constitution Committee. The session also advanced appropriations for state teachers colleges, an Auburn artificial cattle insemination unit, a forestry program, and higher circuit judge salaries, while a public health bill on storization died in committee after indefinite postponement.
