One). presed in such protests, especially so when they coincide with my own view of the matter." Half Mill Tax "Unscientific." Governor Moore in vetoing Assemblyman Powell's half -mill tax bill for institutional development in 927 said the method was unscientific and unsound.

The governor said if the policy of securing definite legislative appropriation is to be adhered to, the taxpayers should know it and understand where the funds appropriated are to be applied and The veto messaga said: "Assembly bill No. 311 is returned unapproved.

This measure continues the half -mill tax for construction work in the department of institutions and agencies. "By this tax, over two and one million dollars will be assessed upon and collected from the people of this state in this: year. Unfair Present Generation. "I have heretofore pointed out that, this method of financing capital imI provements is unfair to the present day and generation, The method of raising moneys a fixed, arbitrary rate is unscientific and unsound. The people are not apprised the amount of money which will be raised in that manner until the migchief is done; if, indeed, they ever know.

"Experience has demonstrated that the assessable value of property in this state is constantly increasing, and therefore the amount raised under such a plan likewise constantly and steadily increases. "I do not believe this bill should become law in its presert form. If the policy of paying capital improvements by annual -ppropriation is to be adhered to, then I think a definite sum of money to pay for certain delinite, understood improvements should be appropriated, so that all may know in advance how much is to be raised in the current, year. "I recommend that the legislature secure from the responsiblo heads of the department of institutions and agencies a definite and certain promrise as to when this method of levying taxes upon our people is tu be discontinued."

However, it learned in the day that Judge Kremer had declined the offer of Democratic leaders from his Judge Kremer felt that acceptance of the common pleas bench would curtail his practice considerably.

Senators Ready To Suggest Republican State Senators Stevens of Monmouth and Roberts of Burlington were under the impression that the 18 Republican senators were to suggest to Governor Moore the name of the Republican nominee for the circuit court, with the governor making his own choice for the Democratic nominee. When the governor to the State House he was informed that 10 of the 18 Republican senators were favoring Harold B. Wells of Bordentown, former county judge of Burlington. Wells in 1922 and 1925 was attached to the speakerg' bureau of the Republican State committee. Wells is closely identifled with the prohibition forces in the Republican party.

His denunciation of Mayor Frank Hague of the stump in the Runyon and Whitney gubernatorial campaigns soured the Hague machine on his prospective elevation to the circuit court. When Governor Moore was asked about Wells he said the Republicans had failed to agree upon a nominee and he would have to agree for them. In addition to Wells, William F. Sooy, city solicitor of Atlantic City; A. Dayton Oliphant of Trenton, vice chairman of the publican State committee; Guy L.

Fake of Rutherford and William F. Newcorn of Plainfield were mentioned as Republican availables. Judge Porter's name was considered a certainty late yesterday. Republican senators went conference and agreed to submit to the governor the names of Wells and Judge Porter. Republican Senate Leader Francis B.

Davis, a lawyer, carried the recommendation to the executive department. Lawrence Name Secret Shortly afterward the executive dispatched the names of Judge Lawrence and Porter to the senate. The governor earlier in the day discarded the prospect of naming County Counsel John J. Fallon of Hudson as the Democratic nominee for the circuit court and guarded the Lawrence nomination with considerable secrecy. The naming of Walter D.

Van Riper as Essex county common pleas court judge to take Judge Porter's place weaned many of the south Jersey Republican senators from the Wells candidacy. Van Riper 1s a staunch lieutenant of United States Senator Walter E. Edge in Essex. Van Riper as assistant United States district attorney gained considerable prestige. His resignation from the federal service is believed to have been at the instigation of Mabel Willebrandt, assistant attorney general of the United States in charge of prohibition enforcement matters for New Jersey.

She was displeased handling of the United States district attorney's office here and Van Riper quit, it is understood, to stay the political decapitation of his immediate superior, Walter G. Winne of Hackensack, the federal district Winne and Van Riper State House last night, Winne working energetically to advance Van Riper's candidagenator A. C. Reeves of Mercer wag behind the candidacy of Mr. Oliphant, vice chairman of the Republican State committee.

Clark has just been informed that the girl, Dollas Doxsee Ispel, N. unwed mother of their 18 months old daughter, has been taken into the home of "a good Dayton family." MOORE'S LIQUOR MESSAGE CAUSES PANIC IN SENATE (Continued from page one) filed." Davis accepted the compromise suggestion and Senate President Larson announced the Case suggestion had been carried. The filing of the resolution in the official minutes of the senate precluded further debate.

Refers to Harrison Move "In my inaugural address to the legislature," said the executive message, "I recommended in a discussion of the subject of prohibiton, that the legislature memoralize congress to modify the Volstead act. It mattered not to me whether such action was taken by a Democrat or a Republican. On February 16, Senator Harrison of Essex, one of the majority members of the legislature, introduced a concurrent resolution in agreement with my suggestion and in accordance with the public demand. "This resolution was referred to the committee on judiciary and is still there. Other measures directed to relieving the rigors of the prohibition law have also been introduced, and these also have remained in the committees, to which they have been referred.

"In view of the pending agitation on the subject of prohibition, thruout the country and in congress, I feel that the legislature would be responding to public sentiment, it it were to act favorably on these measures. Such action, I believe would meet with the approval of the people of the state, who, I am firmly convinced, favor a modificaton of the Volstead act, 80 as to permit the manufacture and sale of light wines and beers. New York To Act "Proof of this changing public opinion is to be found in the fact that the legislature of New York, one of our sister states, controlled by the Republican party, is about to pass a resolution recommending the mission to the pepole of the country of a referendum, which today's press attributes Root, one of the leading Republicans of the nation. The following is stated to be Mr. Root's conception of a proper referendum: "'Should the congress of the United States modify the federal act en18th amendment of the constitution of the United States SO that same shall not prohibit the manufacture, sale, transportation, importation or exportation of beverages which are not in fact intoxicating as determined in accordance with the laws the respective House Resolution house of assembly, whelmingly Republican, has already passed a resolution commending the two United States senators, for their courageous and able stand against prohibiton and in favor of the modification of the Volstead act.

Should not the legislature as a whole, pass one or all of these measures introduced against prohibition? Failure of the legislature to take a decided stand on this important question, would, in my opinion, constitute a refusal to follow and accede to the steadily increasing demand for a change. I had hoped until this hour of adjournment that some such action as I now recommend would be taken." ALBANY, April 1. -A state referendum on modification of prohibition is a step nearer realization today with a probable favorable vote In the senate not far distant. The Karle resolution, suggested by Elihu Root and designed to permit the pass upon the question of the Volstead act should be modified to permit states to determine for themselves what liquors are Intoxicating in fact and be sold their borders received a favorable vote in the senate Judiciary committee yesterday. This action is considered Indicating the way the senate will vote.

Osbaldeston today. Dr. Osbaldeston appeared to be perturbed at one period yesterday when a couple of out of town reporters approached him for new interviews.

Cook, has instructed him not to give interviews with reporters from out of town papers, in the future.

Cook, Dr. Osbaldeston's attorney, received a letter from H. C. Shoemaker of Valdani, Miss. Shoemaker said he read in a Memphis paper of Dr.

Osbaldeston's arrest by Deputy Sheriff Black, and proceeded to score the aged Binghamton official. Dr. Osbaldeston treasures the letters with keen delight. During the day the aged physician busied himself about his room, versing energetically with those who came in and showing little of the strain that yesterday and Monday weighed so heavily upon him. He brewed some tea and sat down to a lunch of soft boiled eggs, bread and crullers a woman had left him.

S. Foster Black of Binghamton, N. claiming to be a nonogenarian, too, reads the papers.
