The term “eta” was formerly ap

In Senate; Bethel
School Fund Missing
One bill passed 'by both Houses o
'the legislature as shown by officia
records will not became a law, no
because it was disapproved by tin
Governor or allowed to die wlthou
his approval, but because it com
pletely disappeared during the clos
|ing days of the session and a thor
ough search has failed to reveal it!
; whereabouts. It is House Bill No
6, providing for a special appro
priation for constructing a school
house at Bethel.
The measure was introduced bj
Mr. Keys early in the session. Ac
tion was delayed In the House foi
several weeks but eventually it
passed carrying an appropriation ol
$1,200. On the fifty-seventh day ol
the session it was amended in the
Senate by cutting the appropriation
to $500 and passed on that day
under suspended rules.
The bill then went to the en
grossing and enrolling committee to
be put Into shape for return to the
House . No record of it is available
after that fime, nor did it ever
show up in the House.
