Relief for Ol Man Now Aim of Gov Moody

A Texas report from Austin states Governor Dan Moody plans to present a relief measure to ease the independent plight of operators when the legislature reconvenes Monday. He will submit the general question rather than a detailed plan, allowing lawmakers to craft their own bills. He may also propose topics for several municipal bills at the week's start. The governor added that appropriations won't be submitted unless the legislature remains in session beyond next Saturday, amid talk of adjournment. If adjournment occurs, appropriations would be needed for colleges, eleemosynary institutions, and penitentiaries, raising doubt about a quorum for Monday’s session. Texas Independence Day will close state departments and lawmakers are said to be reluctant to work.
