Legislature Near Final Lap as House Reports Big Appropriations
Harrisburg May 22 The legislature moves toward adjournment with the first batch of appropriation bills reported from the house appropriations committee. Chairman James Woodward warns against overstepping revenues, noting hospitals receive steady state aid and urging cautious, businesslike funding. Senate adjournment date unsettled amid talks of June 21 or later, while a six week recess is proposed by some senators to address wartime needs. Speaker Baldwin ordered a quorum call when adjournment was debated, the first since 1913.
