Senate and House actions on pensions bills and finance measures
Senate reports favoring government loan bills were postponed while the circuit and district court expansion for the Great Lakes was passed. The live cattle export inspection bill was approved, requiring strict disease checks and official certificates. The dependent pension bill faced opposition but passed in revised form. The anti trust clause amended the interstate transportation bill and the agriculture appropriation advanced alongside a veto of a Tuscaloosa building. The silver bill saw shifting treatment between houses. The civil and public building elevator funding were discussed in committee.
