-V POUR WILMINGTON MORNING NEWS, WILMINGTON, DELAWARE. FRIDAY. MAY 20. 1949 ml I I 1 Assembly- WOLD GOOD Hospital School Graduates Continued From First Page however, and the Senator informed me that there were some bills, particularly those introduced by me, and sponsored by the legislative committee of the Delaware Bar Association, that may be considered. Also, if there were other bills sponsored by me in which any of them had a particular interest, such bills may be considered.

I asked the Senator if this action had the RSONALITY VITAL CIO Board Continued From First Tt minute. Murray said this matter was being held "in abeyance." Ask Fourth Round Wage Boost The Executive Board called for a fourth round of wage increases for CIO unions and complained that prices and profits axe too high. Murray declined to spell out any definite wage increase figures as a goal. When asked if they are willing to strike for wage boosts he replied the question as "a little premature. The board approved a resolution tvio Atlantic Security the General Assembly to demand the body of an officer of the other House, it is submitted that there is no authority for such a demand and no basis in law that, requires a compliance therewith.

For a number of years, the House of Representatives has incorporated as a part of its rules of procedure, adopted at each biennial session, a rule to the effect that when rules of the House do not cover a particular, parliamentary situation, recourse shall be had to Roberts Rules of Order Revised, which shall govern: and when the rules of parliamentary practice comprised in Jefferson's manual are applicable they shall govern if not inconsistent with the H. E. Bullis Speaks At Graduation Program Of iWilmington General Class 3 Pact, now before the Senate, as a necessary development oi mew-can foreign policy." Left wing board members cast dissents on this resolution by the unanimous consent of the 26 Republicans. His answer was YesV The Senator said that he told the caucus that he wished to notify me of their action. I thanked him for bringing me the message and he left my desk.

"Later, I told the same member of my decision regarding the office of the President-Pro-Tem of the Senate, which office is the usual place for the holding of caucuses by majority members of the Senate. I stated that in the future, the door leading from the office of the President-Pro-Tem to the offices of the Secretary of the Senate and the Secretary to the President-Pro-Tem would be kept locked in order that the Republicans ol the Senate could feel free to avail themselves of the services of the Secretaries without being embarrassed by coming in same 29-6 vote. The, six dissenting votes were cast by: unrrv TtriHffP of the Longshore man's Union. Donald Henderson of House rules. "Reference to Jefferson's manual in this connection discloses that neither House can exercise authority over a member or officer of the House.

"The particular, applicable provision of Jefferson's manual is found under Section 373, Page 158 of the Manual, as used in the National House of Representatives, and is as follows 'Neither House can exercise any authority over a member or officer of another, but should complain to the the Food and Tobacco worxeis. son was the deadlock which still held on the question of the legality of the House's action in retrieving the repealer for the State's labor relations act from the Senate. Late in the afternoon, after the Republican House members had caucused for more than an hour, the first inkling of a new development promising a reasonably quick end to the session was given. This was to the effect that the Republicans from both Houses would caucus to separate the wheat from the chaff among the approximately 250 bills remaining on the calendar; that the Democrats from the two Houses would do the same thing, and that there would be a third caucus involving leaders of both sides, to prepare a consolidated list of bills which could be passed. The Senate met for the first time at 1:23 p.

for the daily prayer, roll-call and reading of the journal. Only the eight Democratic Senators and Senator Davis were on hand for the session. The President-Pro-Tem asked if there was anything before the Senate. Lieutenant-Governor Alexis I. DuPont Bayard, the presiding officer, responded: "Yes, ma'm, there is House Bill No.

1." Senate in Recess Minority Floor Leader Howard H. Dickerson, of Laurel, then moved for a recess until 3 p. m. The Senate reconvened at 4:15 o'clock. At this time, with all the members present.

Senator R. Allen Cannon asked if there was anything before the Senate. The presiding officers answered: "Yes, sir, House Bill No. 1 is the proper business before the Senate." Senator Davis then rose to a point of personal privilege. She said: "The proceedings of the Senate of the li5th General Assembly are Awinning personality is increasing "in importance as a factor in tii Success of a nurse.

During the meeting. Bridges was a shouting spokesman for the leftists in answering Murray's blunt spoken In fact. Murray and Bridges clashed so often that the latter's left wing colleagues reportedly tried to cut him off so he wouldn't spur Murray to go on.

The biggest left wing CIO union is the Electrical Workers (UE), which was apparently laying low in the House of which he is, and leave the punishment to them. "Further, it is claimed that under the Constitution of the State of Delaware, either House of the General Assembly has complete authority over its procedure, its rules, and punishment of its members for disorderly conduct. By the Constitution, either House of the General Assembly shall have such power that it, can function as a part of a coordinated branch of the State contact with me, and that I would enter and leave the office of the!

"When I was elected a member of the Senate, it became my duty to represent, not only the people of my district and county, but to represent all the people of the State of Delaware. "At this time, I wish to state that I will endeavor to fulfill my responsibilities by giving full consideration to each piece of legislation presented to the Senate, and I will vote in the future, as I have in the past, as honestly and conscientiously as is humanly possible for the best interests of all citizens of Delaware, regardless of whether the legislation is sponsored by a member of the Republican majority or Demo face of Murray criticism ana in hopes the whole thing might blow over.

Lawson Defends Position In a long statement, summing up the events yesterday, which provided a climax in the present effort to get the labor repealer bill passed, Speaker Lawson said tonight: "On the late afternoon of Wednesday, May 18, 1949, while a roll-call was in progress in the House of Representatives, one Michael Ma-rushchak, listed as a sergeant-at-arms. of the Senate in the list of Senate officers, as printed in the 1949 Senate rule book, but who had never before appeared in the House of Representatives with any official message or for any official purpose, came into the chamber of the House of Representatives and stood just within the outer door which faces the Speaker's desk.

If the body of one officer ol the House can be taken by the Senate, then ail can be taken, and the House can be placed in a place in which it cannot function. "If the text of the Senate resolution is as appears in the public press, then it submitted that the Senate acting without authority, had no basis for the demand which the resolution apparently makes for the body of the chief clerk of the House, or for any paper which might be in his possession, as a duly-elected officer of the House of Representatives. "By the rules of both Houses, original bills are properly in the custody of the chairman of the committee to which the bill has been referred, or in the custody of the chief clerk of the House or the secretary of the Senate as the case may be.

"The House having passed by majority vote House Resolution No. 50. indicating their desire to consider House Bill No. 1. might well interpret the unauthorized return of said bill to the Senate by the chief clerk as a violation of the oath of office taken by him.

to support the Constitution and to discharge the duties of his office as chief clerk. "The members of the House of Representatives of the General Assembly for many years have appointed men of outstanding ability as chief clerk to perform the duties which devolve upon such officer, particularly in approaching the Senate, by making proper announcement thereof, and addressing the President or President-Pro-tem before attempting to deliver to the Senate, the documents or papers to be delivered to the body by direction of the Speaker. "Many of the members of the House of Representatives were shocked upon the appearance of a burly messenger, unknown to them as a messenger, who ignored proper procedure and legislative rules. "It might be added that there is a matter of comity to consider between the two houses of the General Assembly.

meeting, a great deal of time was spent in discussing the reasons for the failure of the Republican Party in Delaware to elect its candidates. "The question of a bill which passed the 114th session of the General Assembly was the principal point of discussion. That bill was known as House Bill 212 otherwise known as the Labor Bill. It was the consensus of opinion, judging from the speeches that were made, that House Bill No. 212, or rather the law that this bill enacted, should be repealed.

"Among those who spoke that evening, was a Wilmington attorney, who was a member of the Republican Party, who criticized this measure, and from his remarks one would believe that the worst features of all the labor laws of all the States in the country had been embodied by the person responsible for the drafting of this measure into what resulted as House Bill No. 212. Called on to Speak "At that meeting, I was called upon to speak. I called attention to the fact that I had voted for House Bill 212 after hearing representatives of labor tell of the need of such legislation. Representatives of management contacted also favored the passage of this bill.

I stated that evening that at the time I cast my vote in favor of House Bill 212, it was my conviction that by so doing. I would be benefitting both labor and management. "I also said that when the Legislature convened in January of 1949, I would vote for the repeal of House Bill 212. My reason for making this statement was that I realized the strong opposition to this law. and as had been expressed during the campaign, it was my belief that the enactment of this legislation played a very important part in the defeat of the candidates for office on my party's ticket the Republican Party ticket.

School Grant Blank A school appropriation ordinance was presented in blank last night and given first and second reading When it can be filled in depends on the Legislature. It was referred to the finance and law committees. While the budget was the principal piece of business before ttie Council las-t night, there were other items. City Milk Inspector John C. Foote was reelected by Council for a two-year term.

There was no opposition. Frank L. Bebout and Rebecca S. Strebo was placed on the city payroll as extra clerks in the city tax office, to serve until Aug. 31.

The action was taken at the request of William T. Chipman, northern district tax collector. Two city departments advised Council they are studying conditions at Third and Monroe Streets, where residents requested extra protection and traffic regulation. The Street and Sewer Department said the matter has been referred to its chief engineer and the Department of Public Safety, said a soidy is being made. Councilman Joseph Vavala declared he hopes the studies will not take long because the need for the extra protection will end with the closing of the schools in a few weeks.

Fire Escape Checks Replying to a communication from the Council, the Public Safety directors said that fire escapes are regularly checked by inspectors of the Bureau of Fire, but that this check concerns access to the escapes and not the safety of those structures. Councilman Harvey Y. Wood said that the question of whether a fire escape is safe is a matter for the building inspector. Council referred the directors' letter to the building inspector. At the suggestion of Councilman Frank J.

Corsano, Council asked the building inspector to contact the owner of frame buildings at the southwest corner of Ninth and Morrow Streets, and request him to eliminate the nuisance alleged to exist there. The councilman said the buildings are in "deplorable condition," are hazardous, contain rats, and should be razed. In one of the lighter moments of the sessions. Councilman Albert T. Strawbridge offered four kittens to deal with the rats.

These were rejected on the grounds that the rats are too big for kittens to cope with. Councilman Corsano was offered the best wishes of his associates on his birthday, which is today.

"I was firmly convinced of the sincerity of those expressing the desire that one of the first pieces of I legislation that should be enacted by the 115th General Assembly would be the repeal of House Bill 212. "On January 11. 1949. two days after the organization of the Gen-; eral Assembly, there was introduced i in the House a bill known as House Bill No.

1, co-sponsored by a mem-ber of the majority party and a member of the minority party. On Feb. 3. this bill passed the House I of Representatives and was delivered i to the Senate. It was read in and jwas raised $12,700.

There was no formal notice of the delivery of any message or paper from the Senate, no recognition from the Speaker, and no request for such recognition, at a time when such a request was in order. Meanwhile, the Speaker ordered Mr.

Marushchak to leave the House chamber, stating that he had not been recognized, but. after the adjournment Mr. Marushchak again came up the House aisle and again began to read to Mr. Spruance from the paper he carried. In addition to the reading of the paper, Mr.

Marushchak asked the chief clerk to acompany him from the chamber. "The paper was not read in full and was not left with the chief clerk nor was it left in the House so there was no official knowledge by the Home officials and members as to what the paper contained. From the public press it appears that the paper was in the form of a resolution of the senate which commanded William W. Spruance, chief clerk of the House, forthwith to produce a House bill and deliver the same to the secretary of the Senate, and which directed that a copy of the resolution be delivered to the said William W.
