GOVERNOR REVIEWS
CONVICT CONTRACTS
Grants Six-Month Extensions
Because Legislature Has Not
Provided for Idle Prisoners.

TRENTON, Dec. 31.-Upon the
recommendation of the board of in
spectors of the State prison, coupled
with that of Commiss oner Joseph p
Byers, of the department Of charities
and corrections, Acting Governor
Taylor has consented to the extension
of two prison contracts which will
expire tomorrow The contracts are
with the Trenton Whisk Broom Works
and with Oppenheinl g. Co. Acting
Governor Taylor said he is Ilnalter--
ably opposed to the prison contract
system, but the circumstances of the
present cases warranted the exten-
sions
1t seems that in abolishing prison
labor contracts the Legislature Of
1911 made no provision to employ the
convicts left idle at the expiration OF
their contracts. 1t was this situation
that led the acting Governor to re-
new these until July /, 1914. at the
suggestion of Commissioner Byers
This extension" said the commits
sioner, would enable the Legislature
to make proper adjustments. Ii any

.RAPS LABOR SHIFT
OF TWELVE HOURS
Expert Declares Laborers Are
Mere Slaves to Their
Work.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S1.-Laoorers
compelled to work twelve hours q
day are worn out more rapidly than
we're the slaves on the Southern
plantations, and are more effectually
debarred from the common pleasures
OF life than many of the prisoners In
our penal institutions" was the dec
laration made by DR.. Basil nj. Manly
today before the American Associa-
ton for Labor Legislation In joint
session here with the American Po-
litical Science Association.
DR.. Manly, who recently investi-
gated for the Federal Bureau OF
Labor conditions of employment In
the iron and steel industry, asserted
that the number of twelve-hour men
was enormous in the manufacture OF
iron and steel, gas, cement, paper and
pulp, coke, starch, beet sugar, glass
bottles In many branches Of the
chemical industry and in bakeries,
and he added that they form the
labor also in long list OF other in
dustries.
"These men, he said, ARE little bet
ter than slaves to the machines they
operate. The twelve-hour worker has
no time for recreation, no time for
friends. no time for his wife, no time
for his children, to whom he Is dull
stranger who comes and goes and
whom they see less frequently and
know less intimately than their schoo
teachers.

John Hays Hammond Attacks
President Wilson'S Policies

ATLANTA. Dec. 31.-An attack on
the policies of President Wilson was
made by John Hays Hammond in his
address yesterday before the social
and economic science section OF the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Science. Mr.. Ham
rnond, retiring as vice-presldent of
that section, discussed the develop
ment OF our foreign trade as a broad
question affecting the welfare OF the
entire nation and not to be handled
by partisans.
His address was a criticism not
only of the Democratic policy of
tariff revision, already carried into
effect, but also OF President Will
sons foreign policy; of the Presi-
dents denunciation Of material in
terests" as serving too often their
selfish ends in American countries at
undue cost TO the natives of those
countries; OF the administrations
waiting policy toward Mexico, and
of its peace program.

Assistant Postmaster at
LeOnia Arrested and an
Enterprising Career Checked

LEONIA. Dec. 31-Leonia's long
controversy over the postmastership
came to sudden Climax Monday
night with the arrest by the Federal
authorities of b. B. Andrews, assist
ant postmaster and aspirant to the
higher position. The charge against
him Is that of tampering with the
United States mail.
The story of Andrewss career in
Leonia comedies with the period OF
disturbance In the town. Two years
ago he appeared in the town as sta
ton agent of the Erie railroad. A
year later he was appointed assistant
postmaster, the village postoffice be-
ing moved into the Erie depot. Since
then he Is said to have made consid.
erable money by renting the tracks
of the Erie railroad near the station
for the use of moving picture com.
panies who wished TO stage thrilling
scenes of hold-up and train wrecks.
Not content with this, relates p
p. Cluss, the present postmaster, An
drews's ambition was to become
postmaster. Soon the town was flood
ed with petitions, protests and Gem
plants, issued by friends of botf
candidates. Later the village wa.
shocked by the rumor that Andrews
had informed the Federal govern
ment that Cluss was freeholder In
addition to holding the office of post
master
1t was, therefore. not surprising tt
those who are acquainted with ,botf
of the candidates, that complaints
of delays In transportation OF I4eonia's

FEDERAL PRINTER
DENIES "SPO|LS''
Ford Declares That Changes
Have Been Made for
Efficiency.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 31.-In an
swer to recent criticisms that his de-
partment was being usnd by the
Democrats to build up the spells sys-
tenn, Public Printer Cornelius Ford,
who has charge of the government
printing office, adm tied that he had
made many reductions and promo
lions since he was appointed by
President Wilson. but he declared
that every step he had made was for
the purpose of getting q more efficient
force.
Concerning these reductions and
promotions Mr.. Ford ga d:
1.-THE changes have been made for
the purpose of promoting efficiency
in the work of the office. They are
based on the effici ncy records of the
| men, and political consi erations are
not weighed. AS a matter of fact
don't know the politics of the men in
volved.
ut is fact that since these
changes have been made the efficiency
of the office has been increased. which
seems to be a fair explanation and
| Justification of them. Our records
will prove this. Changes are con-
| stantly going on In the office, an in
cident to the management Of such ar
esta blishment.
| There have been no political ap.
| pointments. There have been some
| personal ones, because as head of the
| establishment l have desired to Al
| certain responsible positions with mer
| whom knew and was certain | coulC
depend upon in all ways. That ls, o.
| course, true of all business establish
ments; but politics has had no more
to do with these selections than with
| others"
There Is talk of investigating the

NEWARK FIRM GETS
SEWER CONTRACT
IF. Stanley Co. to Do Work
on Section 3 of OutfalI
Pressure Tunnel.

The contract for section of the
outfan pressure tunnel Of the general
trunk sewer plan was awarded yes
terday to the j. It, Stanley Com
pany. a Newark firm. Their bid was
81, AT, 500.
The awarding Of the contract to the
local firm came entirely unexpected.
by reason of the fact that two other
firms had submitted bids that were
lower in price. They were the Kings
bridge Construction Company, Of
New York, whose bid was $1,327, $50,
and the William Horne Company, of
New York. with bid of $1,379,690.
The latter firm engaged the serv-
ices OF United States Senator William
Hughes in an effort to secure the con-
tract. Senator Hughes appeared be-
fore the Passaic Valley Sewerage,
Commission at it's meeting last week
After hearing argument the commits
sion laid the matter over until yes
terday.
Senator Hughes appeared before
the commission again yesterday, but
to no avail. In awarding the con-
tract to the Stanley firm the COM
mission declared the Horne COM
panys bid was rejected on the
grounds that they considered the firm
not so responsible as they would like
them to be. and that the Kingsbridgs
firms bid was not a balanced one.
The Stanley company bid and stand
Ing as a concern was what appealed
70 the commission and prompted them
in awarding of the contract to them.
Section is two miles In length and
runs under Newark bay and part OF
Bayonne, with the operating shaft
on the Newark side.
Bids for the construction Of section
12 which is located in Passaic, viii
be opened at next Tuesdays meeting
of the commission.
