FINDS DEFECT IN BILL.
Gov. Fielder May Return Efficiency
Measure without Approval.

TRENTON, y. j., April s.--Gov, Fielder
discovered tonight what he regards as
a fatal defect IN the draft OF the eighth
bill in the economy and efficiency series
providing for a reorganization OF the
state Board OF Health The bill would
create a director of health. but the penal
provisions are all entrusted to com
missioner OF health. Unless the Senate
recalls the bill for amendment the Gov
ernor will return It without his approval.
Four OF the eight OF the economy and
efficiency bills were signed by the Gov
ernor Tonight and the fact that they are
now laws may compel the reoonvening
OF the Senate on June 80. Each uf the
four bills would establish a new State
department by consolidation OF existing
departments or commissions. The terms
of present officers are to expire June
30 and the new appointees are TO take
office July |. The bills are not to be-
como effective until Juno 80.
