Rate of Interest Develops Contests In State Legislature
In the South Dakota Senate today Morris began a bill to make newspaper voting contests a misdemeanor and McMasters moved to repeal the Highards primary law. The House refused to concur in a Senate resolution to provide each member with a letter file at state expense. A Senate committee considered a governors residence project and a vote on the McClintock contract rate bill passed after amendments. New Senate and House bills were introduced on boilers, capitol grounds, municipal suffrage for women, and state university building schemes.
