Washington to Say Lengthy Relief Plan Faces Split
Continued from page one Hopkins said the legislature will likely reconvene at a special session after January 1 to consider financing relief. He noted the governor’s motor fund proposal was rejected for lack of legislative sanction and indicated he would be called to Harrisburg to confer with legislative leaders on a funding plan.

Governors plan drives brief relief session call
Friends of the executive and GOP leaders expect Hopkins to approve the governor plan, enabling a short session by next week to fund relief. The governor’s message calls for $20 000 000 in relief and $820 000 000 without new taxes, with quick action emphasized to secure October federal funds. He blames Democratic delays and politics for blocking relief and urges a nonpartisan approach while noting the session could be the shortest in state history. Also, Attorney General Schnader’s future remains tied to the scope of the call as Pinchot’s administration limits the session to relief matters.
