Critics from Senator Burke oppose any enlargement, and debate attendance indicates a Senate decision soon.

Senate Defeats Kill Move on Kannenberg WDA Bill
MadisonWisconsin lawmakers advanced the Kannenberg Wisconsin development authority bill with a 16 to 14 engrossment vote. The senate later rejected by 18 to 14 a motion to kill the measure, amid constitutional objections from Senator Marvin Duel. A separate PWA restructuring bill was introduced, proposing three new departments and civil service policy boards to take effect by January 1, 1939. Adjournment efforts were blocked as the assembly pushed a rules review after noting remaining administration bills, including the tax bill.
