Sunday Prohibition Bill Sparks Illinois House Clash
Springfield March 10 A heated session over a bill by Walter Lantz to ban Sunday baseball and theater led to a near riot as McNichols and Kinsella voiced strong opposition. The assembly also discussed a $15,000 probe budget for submerged land rights, with Chiperfield arguing for state lands to be returned to the people. The Illinois Steel Co. asserted it would pay fair value for land it occupies, while nineteen other bills were introduced including road track access and judicial boundary changes.
