PAGE THREE HIGH LIGHTS OF HISTORY The Fall of New Netherland By J. CARROLL MANSFIELD Interest Centers on How Senate Duped Schneider State Political Gleanings THE EVENING NEWS, HARRISBURG, PENNA SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1925 England was EMEft to P05SE5S NEW NfcmtKVMw FOR IT iAY LIKE A WEDGE BETWEEN THE NORTHERN! INTEREST at the Capitol today, among many of the State officials and most of the members of the Legislative League, composed of rural members opposed to the Vare-Grundy combine, centers on how the Senate fooled William A. Schnader, drafter of the code and a deputy attorney general. Schnader agreed to the amendments to the 50,000,000 road bond enabling bill and these place the majority cf power in the hands of Governor Pinchot's enemies. The Governor and other State officials were much perturbed when they heard what Schnader had done.

The Governor in order to protect Schnader has let it be known that he will not oppose the bill which gives Auditor General Lewis and State Treasurer Snyder two out of three votes in deciding how much1 of the 150,000,000 the Governor can spend during his remaining time on the Hill. On the other hand the Governor has not let it be known that ne approves the bill. "He will not oppose it" is different from he believes Schnader blundered," but the one looks and sounds more polite.

There are sixty-nine members of the League who are absolutely opposed to the blundering tactics of the Vare-Grundy group and whose vote can be'eounted upon by the Governor at any time.

mere are six or seven other members of the League who will go along with most things the League stands for.

Mrs. Boone added that the bureau of which she is the head was prepared to accommodate several hundred persons with rooms in the Downtown section of the city.

The letter of January 28 asked the preferred stockholders to pay an assessment of $1.50 a share, this Conventions to Tax Capacity of Hotels With several large conventions scheduled for this city next week, hotel rooms will be at a premium, according to announcements of the proprietors.

The members of the league are also opposed to the provision of the bill which would provide for interest and sinking funds for the road bonds from the motor-license fund. Their say that if the gasoline tax receipts were given directly to the Highway Department this opposition might disappear. No one has intimated that either of the fiscal officers would oppose the floating of the road bond issue in sums sufficient to carry, on the work of highway development, but the possibility exists in the minds of some of the members of the Legislature.

Auditor General Lewis has said he wants to see the roads built but he declined to say that he favored expending the entire $50,000,000 during the Pinchot term. Just what State Treasurer Snyder thinks about the matter will be awaited with interest. He usually has ideas about things connected with the executive and an expressive way of putting them. A conference was held yesterday in the office of Mayor George A. Hover-ter between members of the legislative committee of the Pennsylvania Magistrates' Association, of which Mayor Hoverter is president, and representatives of other interested organizations for the purpose of perfecting plans for opposing legislation inimical to the interests of the minor judiciary.

As stated by Mayor Hoverter "it is the aim of our organization not only to purge our ranks of unworthy members of the minor judiciary, if any be found, but to combat the many unwarranted attacks upon us that tend to condemn all of the minor judiciary because of the mistaken or corrupt practices of a few. And it is an insignificant few that are guilty of unfair practices because I doubt if there are half a dozen such aldermen, magistrates or justices of the peace among the 7000 members of the minor judiciary in Pennsylvania." The Mayor further stated that traffic cases seemed to be at the bottom of the trouble and that it is the purpose of his organization to fully acquaint the public with the real attitude of the minor judiciary in regard to these cases. The Mayor in this connection referred to a statement made at the conference by C. Scott Rickard, secretary of the Magistrates' and Constables' Association of Philadelphia, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties. "We are not opposed to the establishment of special socalled traffic courts," said Mr.

Rickard, "but we want members of the minor judiciary to preside over them.
