SIMPLE CEREMONY
MARKS INAUGURAL
OF WILLIAM SULzER
Precedents of Years Stand
ing 1gnOred-Executive
Walks to CapitOl-NO
Military Parade


Albany, n. y. January l.--Precedents
of years standing were ignored and
others created today during the inaugu-
ration of William Sulzer as democratic
governor of the Empire state.
All the pomp and display usually
shown in such occasions were lacking,
this at the governors own request.
There was no military demonstrations,
no governors salute OF 10 guns, no pa
rade; nothing to feature the induction
into office Of the states chief executive,
except a notable gathering of prominent
people and the carrying out of the pro-
cedure provided by the constitution.
The new governor insisted upon walk
ing from the executive mansion to the
capitol refusing to ride in a carriage
which had been provided. After the
ceremonies he inaugurated new fea-
ture IN appearing on the front steps OF
the capitol aud addressing the thousands
who were unable to witness the o,reIno-
nies inside.
The governor took the constitutional
cath of office in the lavishly decorated
assembly chamber.
In his inaugural address the new ex-
ecutive pledged "an honest and eff
cient and economic and business like
administration, and was greeted with
prolonged applause when he said:
'"Tbe people know that an ounce OF
performance is worth ton of promise
and they viii judge my administration
not by what l say now, but what dc
hereafter"
Carrying out the democratic platform
pledge, Minority Leader Wagner of the
senate and Assembyman Goldberg to-
night introduced concurrent resolu-
tion providing for woman suffrage. The
resolution Is substantially the same as
adopted last year in the assembly. and
defeated In the senate. In offering the
resolution Leader Wagner who fought
the measure Iast year, explained he
stilI was opposed to equal suffrage, and
was fatllering the resolution merely be-
cause the party platform advocated pres
entation of the question to the voters.
Mr.. Wagner also offered resolution
ratifying the proposed federal amend
ment. providing for the direct election
Of United States senator's. The popu-
lar election of United States senators
was the principal recommendation by
Governor Sulzer in his first annual mes
sage to the Legislature. which convened
tonight.
'The people can, and ought to be
trusted, said the governor "In my
opinion the people of our state are in
favor of the election Of United States
senators by a direct vote favor this
change in the federal construction rs ]
shall every other change that will re-
store the government to the control OF
the people
The governor also asked the Iegisla-
ture TO consider reducing the nigh cost
OF living. and recommended submission
OF an amendment for woman suffrage Ia

Huntington, W. va. January 1,-seven

others are believed to have been lost to-
day when a west bound Chesapeake and

"A crew of 80 or more iron workers were
employed installing double track across
the bridge When the freight train APP

said, believing the bridge unsafe.
When the train was near the center of

workers not caught beneath the wreckage

The accident Is believed to have been
caused by water undermining the piling

siderable loss during the past several
days, but the railroad officials felt conf

were possible he would like to go afoot
between the White House and capito
when he takes the oath of office as Pres.
ident of the United States. He realizes
however, that the crowds would make II
impossible.
Jeffersonian simplicity, the kind that
the President-elect would like to emu
late, however. he remarked, consisted nc
Of horseback ride, as some historians
have chronicled it, but merely an un-
ostentatious walk down Pennsylvania
avenue, in the company of few cit
izens

back to the capitol and hitched his horse
to post while he went in to take the
oath of office isn't true" said the gov
ernor. He was told that Governor Sulzel
had walked to the capitol at Albany
Mr.. Wilson spoke approvingly of this
He was asked IL he had made any plans
for his own Inauguration in this connec-
tion.
Il hadn't thought out the method at
ALL" he said. II have simply satisfied
myself with impressing the gentlemen on
the inaugural committee with my desire
to have the Inauguration as simple as
possible
The President-elect was questioned as
to whether he thought it would be an
added convenience to members of Con-
gress to know just how soon after the
closing of the present session of Con-
gress they would have to reassemble for
an extra session. He indicated that one
of the very first acts of his administra-
tion would be to announce the date of
the new session.

day and the extra session

The governor took a long walk early
today. 1t was his first since he be-
came ill. and marked his return to nor
NAL health He wore no overcoat, but
put on a heavy sweater and trudged
