A For more than a month: a crew
of men has been at work renovat
ing the house of representatives
and senate chamber, and placing
the 'various ' committee rooms In
shape for the legislative session.
All desks have been varnished,
many of the walls have been re
tinted and (other improvements
have-been in order. For the first
time In many years legislators at
tending the 1 31 seesidn will not
be required to go into the rotunda
when, called to telephone. Private
telephone booths have been I in
stalled in both houses of the leg
islature, and these will be reserv
ed exclusively for the use of the
lawmakers.
Steaos In Offices j
'Another innovation at the open
ing of the 1931 session will he the
absence of chairs for stenograph
ers within the bar of the i two
houses. Under the new order of
things the stenographers will have
rooms adjacent to the senate and
house of representatives i where
they will be available to legisla
tors, at all times. It was argued
that the new system of handling
the stenographic work would elim
inate unnecessary confusion and
relieve the crowded condition of
the house and senate chambers.
As the result of the completion
of the' new state office building,
a ' number of offices In (he j old
of -the Jefferson Lodge No. ; 33,
