Wig and Gown Bill

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 10-In the house
Mr.. Green's antiwig and gown bill,
which provides that attorneys and coun-
sellors at law shall not be compelled to
wear any gown, habit or wig, was OBJ
jected to by Mr. Maher of New York, who
called for an explanation. Mr.. Green said
1t would greatly hamper lawyers if they
were compelled to skip from court to
court in wig and gown. Mr.. Maher was
of the opposite opinion and said it would
lend decided dignity to the courts to see
those who practiced law in flowing robes
and beautiful white wigs. The bill was
then passed. 1t imposes restrictions to
prevent desecration or improper use of
the flag.
