wordcd sreeCh said that Otto Rosalsky had
earned the right to a nomination for the
court in which he was sitting and that he.
Mr. Parsons, despite the pres sure which had
tccn brought to bear upon him to accept
the lawyers list without change. meant to
insist on the nomination Of Mr.. Rosalsky,
even if that determination meant dissen-
zion in the convention at night.
Taking advantage Of the little rift which
this incident had caused in the meeting,
William Halpin and Joseph Levenson. of
the Second district, criticised the action
Of the leaders Of the county committee in
Consenting to take over the rest Of the
Nominators' candidates. They asked what
Use II was for the Republicans Of the county
to have an organization II they had not
the privilege Of selecting their own judiciary
candidates. The incident, however, ended
with these two protests, and it was decided
to indorse the lawyers nominees with the
exception named.
The convention last night at the Murray Hill
Lvceum was short. After NathanielA Elsberg.
who had been elected permanent chairman,
had made a speech supporting as a general
proposition the principle OF nOn-partisan-
ship in the making up of judicial tickets
Herbert Parsons moved that the convention
proceed to the nomination of a candidate
for the Court of General Sessions. The
usual programme would have called for the
nomination. "a a matter of precedence, Of
the candidates for the Supreme Court bench.
But Mr.. Parsons was aware that IL there
was to I've any division in the convention

nomination Of Mr.. Rosalsky. He had

William Halpin also seconded the nomina-

diction tonight that that candidate will poll

Judge ROsalsky was nominated by ac-
clamation and afterward Congressman
William =. Bennett proposed the nOmina-
ton Of the rest Of the ticket as a whole,
and the resolution was adopted without
opposition.
These were part OF the resolutions adopted
by the convention:
