Senate Returns NAMES
AS GOVERNOR REQUESTS

The Senate last night acceded to the
request from Governor Brumbaugh
that it send back to him the appoint
ments made during the recess by Gov
ernor Tener, in order that the Govern
or might look them over and see wheth-
er they were just what he required in
the way of helps for his administra-
tion.
Following this action of the Gov
ernor, the Senate took up all of the ap-
pointments he had, sent in up to that
time and confirmed them. When Gov
ernor Brumbaugh first recalled the ap-
pointments of the-members of the Pub
lie Service Commission there were some
Senators who were disposed to resent
his action and intimated that they
would send the names back to the Gov
ernor if it suited them, and if it didn t
they wouldn t. Then, when the Govern
or withdrew all of the names sent in
by Tener, the Senate began 80 sit up
and wonder "where it WAS at
lt/finally came to the conclusion
that the Governor had the whip-hand
of the argument, and last night when
the Senate met, Senator Grow, chair
man of the Committee on Executive
Nominations, offered the following as
coming from that committees:
Whereas, on April Is, 1915, Gov
ernor Brumbaugh presented a commu-
nication to the Senate, recalling the
nominations for members of the Pub
lie Service Commission made by his
predecessor, Governor Tener, on Jam
uary 3, 1915, and
Whereas, on May II, 1915, Gov
ernor Brumoaugh presented another
communication to the Senate, recalling
all the other nominations made by Gov
ernor Tener on January 5, 1915, which
had not been acted upon by the Senate,
therefore,
Not abating the rights or preroga-
tives of the Senate in the premises,
but believing it to be the sense of the
Senate that the return of these nomi-
nations would effect a closer and more
harmonious relation between the Chief
Executive and the officers who will fill
said positions, the Committee on Ex-
ecutive Nominations recommends that
all of said nominations be returned to
his eXcellency as he has requested, out
of courtesy to the Governor IS wishes,
and submits and recommends the fol-
lowing resolution for the approval of
the Senate:
Resolved, That the chief clerk of
the Senate be directed to return to
Governor Brumbaugh the nominations
herein referred to.
There was no discussion of the reso-
luton and it was passed by unani-
nous vote. The Senate at once went
into executive session and confirmed
all of the nominations Governor Brum-
baugh had sent in up to that time, in
cluding those of State Health Commits
sioner Dixon, Superintendent of State
Police Groome, the new board of NOV
ing picture censors, the new brigadier
general of the National Guard and
various minor appointments. 1t was in
timated last night that all of the ap-
pointments of minor character, such
as membership on boards and commits
sions, will again be sent in by Govern
or Brumbaugh in order that the credit
for the appointments will go to him.

$6, 900, 900 TO REPAIR ROADS
None of This Can Be Used For New
Construction, Says Cunningham

State Highway Commissioner Cum
ningham told delegation from Ian
caster county yesterday that it had
been definitely decided that the amount
of money available for maintenance

the next two years will be $6,000,00O.
He said this will make it impossible
for the State to do any new construc-

be barely sufficient to maintain the ten
thousand miles of highways comprising
the Sproul system.
