Legislature Fights Over Relief and Liquor Bills
Opposition faltered as Leo Achterman led a relief motion to allow voters to decide on dropping poor boards. Administration proposed replacing multiple relief boards with a single county agency, saving about 10 million dollars annually. Bills on a Department of Public Assistance and other relief measures faced weaker opposition. House moves included local option voting every spring, adjusting liquor laws, and empowering the liquor control board with court-like licensing authority. The six police bills advanced on an 18 to 12 vote after amendments, with debates over experience requirements and use of fines for crime investigation. The administration proposed a G-man bureau to unify state police functions, while the Game Code received Senate-approved amendments and moved to the Governor.

Railroad Gets Injunction Over Full Crew Bill
Fred B Bankert for the Pennsylvania Railroad said other railroads would join the suit opposing the full crew bill. The railroad argues the requirements have no relation to safety and would force excessive staffing, estimating a yearly cost to Pennsylvania of more than 4 million dollars. It cites $250 million spent since 1913 on safety and a 1923 to 1935 drop in trains carrying workers from 8 934 to 1 812 as proof of protective measures.
