NO SUBMISSION AT
SPECIAL SESSION
Cannot Submit Constitution*
al Amendment Without
Governor Propos-
ing It.
Austin, Texas, March 29.—Tho
story sent broadcast over tho State
Tuesday and which appeared iu
most of the morning newspapers
Wednesday, to the effect that the
attorney general's department had
ruled that a special session of tho
legislature could submit a constitu-
tional am«ndniynt and without it
being proposed by tho governor, was
all wrong.
A special session of the legisla-
ture can do no such thing. Fur-
thermore, the attorney general's de-
partment denies ever having made
such a ruling.
it seems that an Austin newspa-
per man talking with Assistant At-
torney General Cureton regard lug
an opinion rendered by him on Au-
gust 18, 1918, and the newspaper
man misunderstood tlu» purpose or
that opinion. Here is the opinion
In substance as then rendered:
1. The leglslatur« at a general
or special session lias the constitu-
tional right to Submit to the people
of State to be voted upon the ques-
tion whether or not the thirty-
fourth legislature shall call a con-
stitutional convention.
2. It is not necessary for the
governor to submit the subject In
order for the special session to have
this authority.
This oplulon was based on the
constitution of the State, article 3,
second 1, and artlclo 2, section 1.
There's quite a difference between
the calling ol a constitutional con-
vention and the amending of the
constitution. If the story sent out
of Austin was right, the 30 days of
the special session would be wasted
. with tho submission question. Some
of the agitators would like nothing
batter, but tho people will bo glad
to know that this perplexing ques-
tion can not again be considered by
the thlrty-flfth legislature.

BANNER PUB. CO.
The Hague, via Londou, March
29.--The Associated Press has been
Informed from an absolutely au-
thentic source that the German gov-
ernment will ask American officials
and relief workers of the American
commission for relief In Belgium to
submit to a period of "news ijuaran-
tine," the time not to exceed four
weeks, In order to prevent military
information from leaking out.
The time would count from the
day the men lay down their pres-
ent charges and notify the author-
ities In Brussels of their readiness
to depart. They will be asked to
assemble at some center like Liege,
or preferably a German city such
as Cologne, Karlsruh or Munich,
which they would not be allowed to
leave for the period mentioned.
The "news quarantine" would ap-
ply to Brand Whltlock, the Ameri-
can minister to Belgium, and his
staff, whom the German government
since the break In diplomatic rela-
tions regards on the same footing
as relief workers, although In the
case of Mr. Whltlock the period of
detention as a matter or courtesy
might be shortened. After the
"quarantine" has ended it Is stated
that no obstacles will be placed in
the way of the departure of the offi-
cials and relief workers by any
route they may choose.
Mrs. W. A. Wood of Houston,
who has been here on'a visit to her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Shepard,
left for her home today, making the
| trip in her automobile. She was ac-
companied by her sister, Mrs. L. E.
! Itasberry.
A. A. Hacker has returned from
Mineral Wells, where he was called
as a witness In the district court.
Mrs. Hacker will remain In Mineral
Wells several days.
Mrs. Mary Dixon has relumed
from Mineral Wells, where she
spent some weeks with her niece,
Mrs. 0, C. Ilemmlng of Colorado
j Springs, Colorado, who was also at
i the Wells.
