As soon as the appropriation bill went to free conference tho end of tho session was in sight. It took long and weary hours of effort for Chairman Chris tensen and Mr. Hughes and their conferees to untangle the differ ences, but they did so, and the act was ratified carrying appropriations aggregating $6,534,925.87. The increase over the act of 1920 is something less'than $500,000, and. all of this aggregate fa less than the additional amount added to the sup-, ,port of. the common schools of, the State.-' Some', other item?y.Shpw tn ithtere^ Tho presnt 12 mills duced py tho Comptroller General if advisable. No State levy for road work is included or imposed this year. The individual counties may collect this road tax if they s? de sire on petition of the delegation.

Tho 'State-wide stock law act is perhaps the most generally Import ant act passed at this session unless lt be the provisions for women vot ing in the primaries, the increase of tho age of consent and the California marketing 't"tute giving the ma chinery for such co-operative efforts. Tho adjournment was in the host of humor and good feeling. Lieut. Gov. Wilson G. Harvey made an ex cellent presiding officer and showed surprising grasp of the probloms of a presiding officer.
