TRADE BOARD BILL KILLED IN ASSEMBLY (Continued From First Page.) talk for the bill In the Senate, prais- ing: the work done by the Lockwood committee and adding that its report showed the need of such a committee. John J. Dunnigan, one of the Hous- ing Commpttee, an architect, and therefore familiar with the workings of the building trades, also made an effective speech in its behalf. In spite of this a vigorous fight was put up against the measure, the Senators who had voted against most of the Lock- wood bills taking their final fling at this one. ‘The bill was brought before the Senate on a motion by Senator Fear- on to send {t back to the committee, but on a vote, Senator Lockwood's motion to put it on final passaye prevailed, The vote by which it was passed was: Ayes — Baumes, Boylan, Bur- ling, Carson, Cotillo, Davenport, Downing, Draper, Duell, Dunni- gan, Duggan, Farrell, Harris, Karle, Katlin, Lockwood, Lusk, McGarry, Martin, Meyer, Pitcher, Seidel, Sheridan, Simpson, Smith, Straus, ‘Thompson, Tolbert, Towner, Twomey, Walker—81. Noes—Ames, Bloomfield, Bur- me, Campbell, Dick, Fearon, Gibbs, Hewitt, Kava- naugh, Knight, Lowman, Robin- son, Swift, Thayer, Walton, Whitley, Wiswall—18. ‘Then the bill went over to the As- sembly and to its death in the Rules Committee. When that committee failed to report it out none of its friends in the Assembly went to its assistance and asked that the com- mittee be discharged from its further consideration. George Jesse had been asked to do this, for the reason of McWhinney’s known opposition to the creation of a commission. Mr. Jesse expressed the same opinion that the Governor had, with regard to a State board performing the same functions as the Lockwood Housing Committee. Mr, Jesse has been one of the most consistent workers for the bills, and his failure to act at the last moment was a disappointment. Just before adjournment Assembly- man James Caulfield, Secretary of the Lockwood Committee, arose to a question of personal privilege and said he desired to put on record bis disappointment at the failure of the member to make the motion, Chairman Lockwood early this morning gave out the following etatement: “Phe important Housing Committee measures which passed both Houses are: Extension of the ront laws to Feb. 15, 1924. “Extension of the Tax Exemp- tion Law to building beginning ay April 1, 1924. “A measure granting mutual insurance companies the rights to do busine subject, of course, to the supervision of the Superintendent of snaurance. “A bill placing all making bur supervision of the State Superin- tendent of Insurance, who will pass upon the reasonableness of insurance under the bill preventing mutual com- panies from converting into stock insurance compan “The law in relation to actions for rent and giving a feree of unreasonable wa amended in the following par- tioulars: Providing, that where the tenant pays three monthly instalmente of rent in successive monthe he may not set up the defense of unreasonablaness until the expiration of one year.

Every suspect has been ques- tioned and has, it is repgrted, estab. lished a satisfactory alibf County Detective Ellis Parker has requested Paul Purcell of Paterson to con.* to Mount Holly and tell what he knows of the Brunen family. It has been decided that the buck- shot which killed Brunen as he sat In the kitchen of his home was fired from outside the house, as lead scraped from the shot has been found about the outer edge of the hole in the window through which the murderous charge wos fired. Mrs. Brunen is to be questioned again to-day on some points the authorities have asked her to clear up and which sie has promised to do, She has ex- plained she had a letter box for mail under another name because her hus- band tore up all lettere that came to the house for her and his daughter. stitutional amendments do not require Executive approval, but are referred to the next Legislature and if passed again will be submitted at the 1923 election, These include the Tolbert proposal for home rule for cities, the amend- ment seeking to make 345,000,000 available to pay a soldiers’ bonus to World War veterans, amendment to the Judiciary article of the Constitu- tion, another bill designed to abolish thg office of State Engineer and Sur- veyor and Superintendent and Assist- ant Superintendent of Public Works and create in their stead a single de- artment; and the Davenport bill which provides that the debt limit of a city or county shall not be affected by any change in the tax system or in the definition of real estate whereby it shall be exempted from taxation or tax otherwise than on the assessment rolls.

Aside from commending the assist- ance of Goy. Miller and denouncing the Speaker of the Assembly, the “powerful lobbies of the insurance companies'' and the “profiteering criminal combinations,"’ Samuel Un- termyer, upon his return from Albany to-day had little to say of the action of the Legislature in scrapping a num- ber of the Lockwood bills. “I prefer to suspend comment upon the extraordinary action of the Legis- lature," he said, “until there has been an opportunity to survey the field of battle between the people and the Legislature, except to say that, having regard to the influences that dominated the action of the Legisla- ture and the flerce onslaught of the powerful lobbies of the insurance com- panies and of the profiteering crim- inal combinations, it is surprising that these gentlemen were so gracious and generous as to permit any part of our programme to be rescued from slaughter. “Gov. Miller has at all times given me the most patient consideration, and I wish the same or anything like it could be said for the Speaker of the Assembly, at whose door lies a large share of the responsibility for what has happened." ————e PICKPOCKETS PLY TRADE WITH PAIR OF SCISSORS Used to Slit Women’ Crowa.
