Industrial Court and Utilities Commission's Divorce Is Likely
ALLEN COURT VICTORY IS BELIEVED PROBABLE
Allen's Opponents Admit Tha Action This Week-end is Probable
Topica, Feb. 4-The first decisive victory for Governor Allen and the state administration during the press legislative session was seen at the admission by some of the antide administration men that it seemer likely that the housewould grant Court from Judge Uttilas Commission before adjournning for the week end. This plan urged in a special message for the Governor, has been bitterly opposed, but the Senate has gone on record as supporting the administration by a vote of 32-6, and the house by a vote of 81-2, refusing to strike out the enacting clause of the law. However, it was denied by the adjournment that the final house vote would be much closer than this. Representative Frank L. Martin, of Hutchinson, who has being supporting the administration, has told friends he supported the Governor's program because he wanted to abolish the Public Utilities Commission, and believed he would have a better deal with the tribunal than Martin with the commission to abolish the Public Utilities Commission the second day of the session.
THE VOTE WILL BE CLOSE
Topka, Feb. 4.—When the house resumed consideration of the Industrial Court divorce bill Friday, representative Frank L. Martin, of Hutchinson, succeeded in getting two amendments adopted. One of these amendments provides that the judges of the Industrial Court be required to have the same qualifications as those of the Supreme Court, which would require them to be lawyers. The other would give the Court superior authority over the utilities commission.
Instead of making a fight to share the utilities commission done away with as he had previously announced Martin offered an amendment to the bill recreating the commission which would require only one commission instead of three, and gave notice that he would offer a further amendments taking away certain powers of the commission. His amendment was being discussed when the house reeased for lunch.
The senate, during the brief session Friday morning, adjourned until Monday afternoon at 4 a'clock. The only bill of importance introduced before adjournment was the motion to lift the Guard. Hopkins to cur profeilerine. This bill was put into the hopper by Senator Paul.

"We know that the women of the University are right behind all of the school athletics," said Miss Marguerite Adames, president of the Women's Pan-Hellenic, today, "and we do not want people outside of the University to get the wrong idea about the school spirit of the women students. The small attendance at the dames does not show a lack of a challenge but instead shows that there are a fridays and Saturdays. The rule which we have made is to remedy this matter, and insure a fair representation of women at the Conference games."

COMMITTEE REVISES
DORMITORY DOCUMENT
Bill Provides That Excess In comes be Put in State Treasury
The Bill providing for the establishment of girl's dormitories at the University of Kansas, which went before the State Affairs Committee of the Senate last Friday, has been received. Miss Lymn, of the University, was been in close touch with the handling of the Bill, said this morning:
the fact that the bill has been withdrawn from the Committee has no significance whatever. The reason for the withdrawal was the finding of a loophole in the Bill; this has been revised. I think that the Bill in its revised form will go through, at least, we hope so."
The document in its original form provided for a tax levy, which was never to exceed one-third of a mill. It also provided that the bonds be issued serially which would provide for paying off the bonds, serially. The revision which was added provided that the excess from the taxes of the buildings, and the costs for maintenance, necessary repairs, be turned into the State Treasury until it amounts to a sum sufficient to pay for the buildings. The bill has been redrafted four times since its original writing, each time adding some improvement or removing some unessential detail. It has been read in the Senate, twice, and will probably introduced in the House today.
The Senate gave a nearing to a committee from the University, last night, in Topeka.
