Scott Asserts Minority Dragging Assembly's Feet
RALEIGH March 31 Governor Scott criticizes the 1951 session as negative, noting the 1949 legislature achieved more though with reluctance. He argues newcomers struggle with experienced lawmakers and warns a few committee chairmen are already shaping the next session. He opposes giving a budget commission control over the contingency and emergency funds and highway surplus funds, saying it would be dangerous and allow the legislature to oversee the executive branch after adjournment.
