Session ends with fruitless push for widespread reform
Easton of the legislature wrapped up a costly session that yielded little: debates over the general appropriation bill, reductions in public operations, and partial abolition moves. Key items included restraint on the pension department, rural sanitation oversight, and a levy reduction, with a 12 mill tax rate and suspended road tax. Notable acts touched women voters, age of consent, and cotton grading funding, but no broad tax reform or judge elections were resolved.
