Expect Bill On Judge's Salary To Pass Today (Staff Correspondence) Albany--A last minute proposal to increase the salary of the judge of Rensselaer County Court from $5,000 to $12,500 was doomed in the lower house early this afternoon when an earlier measure calling for an increase from $5,000 to $10,000 was reported out of committee. The $10,000 bill, it is expected, will be.passed in the Assembly later this afternoon or tomorrow The measure, sponsored by Sen Gilbert T. Seelye, Kensse- laer-Saratoga District, has been approved in the upper house. Late yesterday, the Assembly Rules Committee, at the suggestion, it is said, of Senator Seelye introduced a bill to increase the judge's salary to $12,500 At that time the $10,000 salary raise bill was in Assembly committee A similar Rules Committee Bill for a $12,500 salary, it is understood, was to have been offered in the upper house today by Senator Seelye but was not presented.

Early this afternoon Assemblyman Thomas H. Brown asked the Judiciary Committee to report out the $10,000 salary bill. The bill for $12,500, it was said today, did not have the approval of the Rensselaer County Republican organization, either in the Assembly or the Senate. The measure to increase the -salary of the Rensselaer County judge, has gone through several changes since it was first introduced in the Senate. Originally the bill provided for an increase to $20,000 a year.

Before it appeared on the -Senate calendar, it bad been amended to $16,000. The third change placed this salary at $10,000 and then came yesterday's bill providing for a $12,500 salary. The $10.000 salary for the county judge is based on his serving only in that capacity, a separate bill still to be acted upon by the Legislature authorizing creation of a separate judge of Children's Court for Rensselaer County.

Democrats are expected to vote for the bill as the lawmakers press hard for final adjournment, possibly Saturday. Dewey proposed the twice-a-year inspections by some 13,000 private garages under state supervision yesterday. He said it would help "rid the roads of death traps on wheels." Bills implementing his recommendation were in Senate and Assembly committees today. They are expected to be voted out of committee tomorrow and passed immediately. The Governor favored private garages for the inspections rather than setting up state-operated stations because of less cost to the state and more convenience for the motorist.

The price of each inspection has not been set but it probably will be somewhere between 50 cents and $1.50. The Assembly today passed a bill outlawing one-man investigations by members of legislative committees. The measure was recommended by the Special Ethics Committee. It was approved unanimously without debate. It prohibits any legislative committee or subcommittee from tak ing testimony unless at least two of its members are present.

The Assembly also unanimously passed a bill establishing a code of fair procedure for the conduct oJf legislative and executive inquiries. It also was recommended by the Ethics Committee. The bill gives witnesses the right, to counsel at hearings and the right to secure transcripts of their testimony. It also allows persons whose names are mentioned at icarings to testify or file a statement. The measure also requires permission of the head of the investigating agency or a majority of a committee's members before testimony taken at hearings can be made public.
