Texas lawmakers weigh July reconvening amid recess plan
Austin May 7 Texas lawmakers debated adjourning the regular session or recessing from June 2 to July 15 with a senate vote favoring the extraordinary reconvening. The move drew criticism as a slap at Governor W. Lee O Daniel who could call a special session in an emergency. The Senate sent House a $16,225,500 rural school aid bill and a $325,000 junior college appropriation, while the House advanced a $29,000,000 government departmental bill. A separate $250,000 cotton research funding bill was approved, and a tie vote left a minority report possible. The upper chamber also set records by passing 65 local and uncontested measures in a 40 minute session.
