AUSTIN, April 16.—Probably
one of the most interesting fea-
tures of the present session,
blocked as it is by the dilatory
tactics of the anti-repealists, is
the one-man battle Senator
Weaver Moore is waging against
the Allred administration.
The battle was probably in-
vited by Moore when he led the
opposition to Labor Leader Wal-
lace Keilly’s confirmation as la-
bor member of this Texas Un-
employment Compensation Com-
mission.
