SIMPLIFY THE LAW, !.
SAYS KATzENbACH.
Candidate, in Sussex, Says
They Are Too Ambiguous.
Criticises Wilson.

NEWTON. Sept 19-After a rather
strenuous trip through the romantic
hills and dales of Sussex County,
journeying from one widely scattered
hamlet to the other, Frank S. Katzen-
bach, jr.. candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor
wound up the day with we'll at
tended massmeeting at Library Hall
last night.
The days itinerary was a record
breaker in more than one respect.
| Twelve boroughs were visited and al
though Mr.. Katzenbach was billed to
speak only in some, the reception at
each place was so warmhearted and
the request for an address so urgent
that he had to speak at each one of
the localities visited.
Mr.. Katzenbach started the tour
at Hopatcong, Morris County, where
he was met by William H. Nichols
and Rutherford futile. of this city,
who took the candidate through the
county.
The boroughs and hamlets visited
were Stanhope. Andover Sparta,
Ogdensburg, Hamburg. McFee, Sus-
sex, Beemerville. Branchville. Au-
ldIIeI
place the party came here.
I'VE are living in Democratic at
mosphere, and the next Governor. ]
am pleased to prophesy, will be a
Democrat. The candidate which |
am going to introduce to you, to my
/ mind, has a better chance than any
other man. We all know of Frank S.
Katzenbach, jr. He mas the courage
of his convictions and he has a mind
of his own"
Mr.. Katzenbach, while not attack
I ing his opponent took exception,
! however, to the stand of President
Wilson in selecting one man over an
| other as his choice for Governor and
in fact, forcing one man out of the
race. This, Mr.. Katzenbach said, was
entirely irreconcilable with the spirit
of the Geran law, for which Mr.. Will
son claimed the fatherhood.
Mr.. KatZenbach further dWelled on
! the question of taxation, in regard
/ to which he expressed himself in
favor of such laws which would give
3 the people true and equal taxation
of all forms of property.
! The speaker pleaded for a simplifi.
cation of the laws in general so that
| they would have meaning, whereas
at the present many of them were
so ambiguous. due at times to mere
carelessness that even lawyers could
not find their way through. Then Mr.
, Katzenbach continued: "Others arr
of such a nature that they either
could not or would not be enforced
and therefore led to despicahle ny
pocrisy." t..-
Upon his arrival here Mr.. %Katzen
bach, who stopped at the Cochran
Hotel. where he held an informal re
| ceDtion, was met by State Senate
