| I | | J | SENATE IGNORES " VETO OF GOVERND (Continued from First Page) the words “appointed by the governor or the senate” This amendment would forbid the service & dual capacity of any member boards handling appropriations, He declared that the governor be- leved in principle that no man should serve on one committee ap- propriating money and on another spending the, money. House Ieader Buckley had declared last week the governor was In favor of the bill, Senator Ells, however, sald it was true the governor supported the principle of the bill but did not favor the bill which he said was drawn to affect but one man, IN THB SENATE, The anti-daylight saving bill came into the senate again today with the *eport of the, disagreeing action by the house which adhered to its orig- inal actlon in passing the bill despitc the fact that the senate had rejected it. Senator Trumbull was appointed senate member of a committee in conference, Movie Law Unchanged. The senate adhered to its action in rejecting the favorable report on the bill which would permit minors to enter motlon picture theaters when accompanied by an adult. The house accepted the report and asked for a committee in conference. The adher- ence of the senate kills the bill and leaves the law as it stands requiring adults to have written permission of & parent or guardian. Favorable Reports, Favorable reports were received on the following bills: Appropriating $47,000 for the state board of fisheries and game, to be used for the hatching and rearing of fish and the purchase and land for hatcheries, « Providing $72,000 for the prepara- tion of teachers of agriculture and home economics to be supervised by the Connecticut Agricultural college.

Y, N, H, and Hartford Rallroad Co,, that all its employes are subject to the federal employers' lia- bility act and granted compensation under the Connectlcut compensation act to Lizzle Green, widow of Robert Green, Bridgeport, who was killed by a train in the Jocal freight yards on May 11, 1922, Commissioner Buckingham, in awarding compensation to the widow at the rate of $15.47 a week for 312 weeks, urged that the New Haven road follow the example of the Penn- eylvania railroad in ‘accepting the state compensation laws rather than the federal law, based on Interstate commerce pleas, Green had been employed at the local freight yards for several years. On the day he was killed, after he quit work, he “hopped” a ride on an en- gine hauling two cars to the railroad station. TIn some way he fell and was 1run over, sustaining mortal injuries. Commissioner Buckingham finds that Green was killed in the course of his employment and not through his own wilful or serious misednduct. Though there was a rule against “hopping” engines, no ,one had cver been dis- charged for it, says the commissioner. The railroad company pleaded that Green was an employe under inter- state commerce and therefore the fed- eral employers’ llability act and not the state compensation law should prevail, The commissioner finds that Green ceased to be woking under the interstate commerce laws when he quit work on a freight engine that had been engaged in handling inter- state commerce cars.

New York, April 17.—Charles I Murphy, chieftain of Tammany hall, today made what was believed to be his first appearance on a witness stand in his long career in politics. Mr. Murphy took the oath in order that he might testify in the suit he had brought against Louis Hartog to recover $175,000 invested in a war- time glucose deal. Spectators in the court room evinced far more interest in the Tam- many chieftain’s cross-examination than they did in his laconic account of his investment of $175,000 in Har- tog's glucose business and his subse- quent withdrawal because as he said Hartog was profiteering. Max Steuer, Hartog's lawyer strove to draw from Mr. Murphy information as to the source of his wealth but Murphy sat silent while Martin oCnboy, his at- torney, blocked the queries with ob- Jections which the court upheld. a a P GRAPES COVER MANY ACRES Berlin, April 17.—Approximately 24,816,590 acres of the world's sur- | face are covered with vineyards, ac- cording to a grape-growers' trade dournal issued here.
