Senate Fails Change to Closed Shop Ban
The senate committee on manufacturing and labor gave an unfavorable report on a measure to modify the closed shop ban allowing union shop contracts. A constitutional amendment to curb gag rules in the legislature was proposed in the senate, Sen Thomas B Sawyer opposed it in open debate. A proposed amendment would limit procedural votes to those with a higher threshold than a simple majority. The senate roads committee killed attempts to revive motor vehicle inspection laws while a new inspection bill was introduced in the house. The house roads committee passed a bill requiring motorists with speeding convictions to surrender licenses during appeals, with surrender periods rising by speeding thresholds.
