REPUBLICANS
RUBBING IT IN
Rap Democrats for Jury Re-
form Action.
(From the NEWS Correspondent) y


Trenton, March 27.-Senator VIII
liam T. Read, Republican leader in
the senate, in a statement on the
present Legislative deadlock on Jury
reform, takes the Democrats to task
for the muddle and calls attention to
the fact that the Republicans In the
Legislature last year ordered an in
vestigation of the subject and passed
a bill appointing commission for
the purpose. Senator Read insists
that the bill reported this session
by this commission embodies the best
features OF the laws Of other states
on Jury reform. He says 1t is by
far the most comprehensive jury bill
introduced this year. Continuing, he
says:
Now If the Democrtic party and
it's self appointed leader president
Wilson, are sincere In wanting Jury
reform they could do no better than
to cooperate with the Republican
members of the Legislature on this
bill, as both parties are committed
to the same pledge, namely, to take
the selection OF juries out OF politi-
cal control"
The bill reported by the commits
sion and referred to by Senator Read
provides for jury commissions ap-
pointed by the Circuit Court Judges.
Senator Read was member OF the
Commission which investigated the
question and recommended the bill.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1913-03-27

Senator Colgate followed, saying
briefly that the people OF his county
favored constitutional convention,
and that for that reason he would
support the bill.
Senator Davis spoke at considera-
BILE length In opposing the bill. He
said that he did not understand that
the Democratic party had pledged
itself to this particular bill, although
admitting that the State convention
last fall adopted a plank in its plat
form In favor of q constitutional
convention.
Senator Davis expressed his belief
that the real spirit behind the Hen
messy bill in It's present form is one
to change the senatorial representa-
ton, in view of which fact he said
no senator representing a smaller
county could vote for the bill and
again face his people.
Senator Nichols, after reviewing
the origin of the constitution, and
it's provisions, says that a constitu-
tional convention would mean a COM
plete change in the present system
of senatorial representation and
would eventually put the smaller
counties at the mercy of the larger.
1t would mean, he averred, that Hud-
son and Essex counties would pre-
dominate in both houses of the legis-
lature.
Senators Read and Edge also
spoke against the bill, as did also
Senator Pierce, of Union county.

efforts Seemed Of no avail. They did
not give up hope, however, until they
were off Sea Breeze, 8. T., where they
saw that the feat was too much for
them and that they were not gain
ing on the fast sailing crafts.
They gave up in despair and came

voice their disappointment. Later
they took a train for Whitehead. l..

NO NEED FOR
JURY REFORM
Sentiment of Speakers at
Grand Jury Dinner.
speciGl to the EVENING NEWS.

gpeciGI to the EVENING NEWS.
New Brunswick March 27.-That
the foreigner in this county should
have more attention and that there
was no room for jury reform in Mid
dlesex, were statements of several of
the principal speakers at the grand
jury dinner at Hotel Klein here yes
terday. Judge Peter F. Daily of the
common pleas bench, especially made
plea for the uneducated foreigner,
saying every county should have a
public defender, He declared he had
seen ignorant prisoners before the
bar plead guilty when they appeared
to have littlek nowledge of what this
meant. AT times such a plea was
even made when there was no evil
dence of guilt, the judge said. He
claimed the foreigner should have a
public official to look after him in
trial cases, just as the state has pros
ecutors to look after it. He urged
that better treatment be thus estab-
lished for ignorant prisoners In or
der that they might receive every
consideration of fairness that justice
allows.
Judge DAILY extended high compli-
ments to Sheriff Albert Bollschweiler
for the high class of jurors he had
drawn during his term of office as
sheriff. In speaking, the sheriff said
it had been his ambition to give the
county the highest grade of jurors
that he could. He extended thanks
to those who had served as such,
after which the popular "Bollschwei-
Ter Hymn" entitled "Heinie," was
rendered.
Prosecutor George s. Silzer said
he had the highest regard for grand
Juries and their work. He had gain
ed more respect for 1t than he ever
had before, since being associated
with three juries. He now realized
the hard work they must encounter
and could now realize the real SER
vice they gave. He declared there
was no need of jury reform here as
the Middlesex county jury system
could not be improved upon.
Assistant Prosecutor Joseph e.
Stricken said jury commission bin
was not needed in this county.
A. P. Daire, chairman Of the COM
mittee of arrangements for the
grand jury, pleaded for more consid-
Grafton of foreigners. He said there
had been cases before the jury in
which foreigners could hardly be un-
derstood for the want of suitable in
terpreters and in instances children
had been called in to interpret. He
contended more attention should be
paid to the growing generations OF
foreigners, that they might receive
proper education so as to grow up to
be model citizens.
Other speakers were Surrogate D,
w. Clayton, Schuyler Van Cleaf,
clerk of the grand jury, and Jury
man George s. Walker of Perth Am
boy, who was on the committee OF
arrangements.
Mayor John ]. Morrison of this
city, acted as POSTMASTER and pre-
sented Richard f. White, foreman
of the jury, with a copy of Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson's history of
the American people.

FOR
USE OF PUBLIC
Bill Provides for Social Gen.
ters In Communities.
(From the NEWS Correspondent

lfTOUl tNe NE " y COfTeSpOHUGNt.J
Trenton, March 27.-AssembIy
Bill 666, by Mr.. Hennessy, OF Ber-
gen county, permitting the public
to use the public school houses for
various purposes, was passed in the
Assembly yesterday afternoon with
out opposition. In advocating 1t, AS
semblyman Hennessy stated that 1t
fulfilled one of thep lodges in the
Democratic State platform. This
pledge was as follows:
1--WE heartily recommend the use
of school houses and public buildings
for political and other neighborhood
and public meetings, as well as for
elections, under proper local regula-
ton"
The measure provides that the
Board Of Education of any school
district may, subject to reasonable
board to permit the use of any school
house and rooms therein, and the
grounds and other property of the
district, when not in use for school
purposes, for any of the following
purposes:
For giving and receiving instruc-
tion IN any branch of education,
learning of the arts; for public IL
brary purposes; for holding, social,
civic and recreational meetings and
entertainments and occasions where
admission fees are charged; for poll
ing places, for holding elections, for
the registration of voters and for
holding political meetings.
Another argument in Its favor by
Mr.. Hennessy was to quote from the
the Legislature on the subject.
"A great movement has sprung up
In this country in recent years which
centers around the school house as a
place of neighborhood conference in
all matters affecting the public or
any local part of 1t. 1t is known
as the social center movement. Il
has the force and momentum of a
great idea In 1t. Secret forces, cor
rupt forces, forces of evil of every
kind, are against 1t, are afraid o.
They fear neighborhood discussions.
They do not wish to have local and
neighborhood matters canvassed too
much out loud. 1t Is our duty as
fectual aid to this movement. We
can do 1t by giving public spirited
men and women everywhere free use
of the school house. A very simple
statute will accomplish the desired
result. The free forces of society
will do the rest"
The roll was then called and the
bill went through unanimously.

There are more nervous persons made

stomach than the average individual
would suppose.
If food remains undigested in the
stomach, it begins to ferment, set up

That's why imperfectly digested
food may, and often does, cause irrita-

some time Of a distressed feeling IN

me thinking that her diet was not

gent mother.
"She had been fond of cereals, but
had never tried Grape-Nuts. From
reading the account Of this predigest'

Grape Nuts for her case.
"The results were really wonderful.
The little brain that seemed at times
unable to do its work, took on new life
