Senate debate over hearings on public utilities pass with vote
Trenton debates a three member Senate committee to study public utilities, hear testimony, and report to the Legislature. Gebhardt attacks the move as cowardly and out of order while Colby warns he will tell voters the Republicans shirked duty if the resolution passes. Several Senate bills are introduced on food laws licenses hunting salaries and city governance.
