Legislature Deadlock Could Stop State Work
TOPEKA—(U.P.)—The Kansas House and Senate return to work today still deadlocked on a bill that could stop many government functions and force a special session of the Legislature.
A compromise with the Senate was refused last night by the House. It would have made token restoration of funds to the Department of Administration and the Industrial Development Commission and given the Kansas Corporation Commission unlimited spending authority.
The controversial bill contained $3,412.523 from the state general revenue fund for operation of 19 agencies of the general government such as the Supreme Court, the lieutenant governor's office, and the Legislature itself. It also carried spending authority for 29 other agencies which collect their own fees.
These included the important Corporation Commission, which regulates public utility rates, and the alcohol Beverage Control department.
Unless the Senate version was accepted there will be a special session, according to Rep. Ernest Boles (R-Liberal), one of the legislators appointed to negotiate with the Senate.
Mr. Boles emphasized that the agencies covered in the bill would be unable to operate after July 1, 1957, if the bill, or a similar one, was not passed.

Group Ready For Hall Probe
TOFKEA—(U.P.)—a seven-member legislative investigating committee, created by the Legislature with a $75,000 appropriation, was poised today for its inquiry into the administration of Gov. Fred Hall.
Only a State Supreme Court decision could halt the committee's activities.
The governor raised the question of the committee's legality as the special budget sessions of the Legislature which created it, was held for appropriations and taxes only.
In addition to Mr. Littler, other members of the committee are Republican senators Richard Woodward of El Dorado and Don Hults of Lawrence; Democrat Senator Carl L. Huxman of Sublette; Republican representatives A. E. Anderson of Leoti and Howard Bentley of Kinsley, and Democrat representative Dale Safels of Garden City.
Under Gov. Hall's order, the attorney general has started preparing a test suit for the Supreme Court.
The committee members, including four anti-Hall Republicans, were named yesterday by the House and Senate. Election in the Senate was smooth while the House election was stormy.
Nine ballots were required in the House before Republican Clyde Littler of Cottonwood Falls beat out Democrat Worden Howat of Wakeeney for the final seat.
The investigation by the committee is scheduled to make reports every 60 days to members of the legislature and to submit recommendations to the regular legislative session that meets next January.

Cold Wave Hits Italy
ROME—(U.P.) The Italian government today rushed food to southern Italy where hunger riots flared in seven towns and raging blizzards and the worst cold wave of the century threatened thousands with starvation.
The snow has been falling for more than 100 hours in some areas. The known death toll in Italy totaled 45 since the snow and cold rolled down from the North Feb. 1.
Road, rail, and telephone communications were out in hundreds of places. Automobiles, buses, and trains were stranded by drifts up to 16 feet. Federal police and volunteers tramped miles through the snow to rescue stranded motorists and passengers, deliver food to isolated farm villages, and carry expectant mothers and the sick to hospital-
Eighty men, women, and children were rescued from two buses trapped for hours in 10-degree temperatures near blizzard-swept San Marco, in the spur of the Italian boot. Volunteers used farm tractors as snow plows to cut through to the stranded buses last night.
