Republicans Seek Softened Anti Trust Bill In Senate
Republican members of the Senate, at a Tuesday caucus, planned to ditch drastic anti trust measures and substitute a gentler bill. The aim is to avoid Democratic disadvantage, with a substitute bill to be prepared by Senators Fuge, Caving, Kirkman and Hawkins. A key feature is drawing on the contingent fund by the attorney general and prosecutors in cases against corporations alleged to violate temperance provisions. The temperance bill faced a setback as the Senate killed Senator Moore’s remonstrance amendment by 25 to 20. Additional insurer bills were introduced, including salary caps on presidents and prohibitions on political contributions by insurers, with penalties of fines and possible imprisonment. Nancy Hanks Monument debate crossed party lines over postponement, while First District legislators prepare to push the measure in the House.
