new bills, passed a bill of the
1933 session over Governor
Meiera veto,, and authorized an
appropriation of $20,000 to cover
the .per diem and mileage of the
legislators and other general ex
penses ot the special legislative
eession.
Two bills Introduced by Sena
tor, Gosg are Intended to relieve
the counties and cities of their
financial burdens. Under one bill

ing the china pheasant hunting
season In ell counties west of the
Cascade mountains for a period
of three years. At the expiration
of that time the open season

ernor Meier's veto was introduced
by Senator Lee and authorized
the creation of a self help and

the 1933 session .to. be passed by
the senate- at the special session.
