Hannah Martin Measure
Reconsidered, Senate -to
Ballot Thursday
(Continued from page 1) .
ly Interested in this b!lL"u Repre
sentative Mahoney said in moving
tor the reference, "I think they
should be given a hearing.,
Army of Lobbyists
Ctt& by Sponsor ::-, '
Mrs. Martin vigorously opposed
the motion. She charged the move
was motivated by "an army of
lobbyists." ' " '
"If you're not afraid, if you're
not ashamed, if you're not paid
to km this bill she shouted.
"put this bill on final passage
where it belongs."
Representatives Roth and Oleen
Joined her In opposing the refer
ence and supporting the bill. The
motion lost 47 to 10.
In making her argument on the
bill Mrs. Martin charged that lob
byists were seeking to Jockey bllli
between the house and senate In
an effort to cause the legislature
to fall to paas any bill. She de
clared that slot machine operators
places their machines near school
buildings In order to entice child
ren into playing.
Representative Daisy Bevans
urged passage of the measure on
the ground that the gambling
habit was worse than either-the
"liquor or tobacco habit."
"Grandstanding" Is
Charged by Leach '
Representative Charles Leach
took the floor charging grand
standing.. He later voted for the
measure.
"I'm getting tired of all this
shouting. I think it's a lot of
grandstanding" Leach said.
The statement brought an ob
jection from Mrs. Martin. When
Leach refused to yield to a ques
tion, she took the floor under per
sonal privilege saying "that I will
continue to grandstand until this
evil Is wiped out."
