ALBANY, May Here are the FIRST
three results of the veto Of the Brooklyn
Charities bill. as they appeared when
the Legislature met this morning:
The legality Of the veto Will be con-
tested in the courts.
Uncle Dan" Bradley has agreed TO
support the Police Reorganization bill
II the Senate will inject referendum
clause In the Greater New York bill.
Senator owens whose vote. with that OF
Bradley. would PASS the Police bill. has
not shown up at the Capitol and is not
expected to. In other words he has
bolted the bill.
The probable results OF these three
new complications will be that the
Brooklyn gang Will fail in its efforts to
nullify the veto; that the Greater New
York bill will fail to pass: that the Po-
Ice bill will suffer a similar fate.
Shortly after the Assembly was called
to order the veto message was read

his protest against Its reception he en-

This request was granted. and then
the message was ordered received with
out comment except from Sam Foley
| the Tammany leader. who tauntel the
Republicans with being at war wi tn
their Governor and discovering that he
possessed claws.
