THOMPSON HOPEFUL.
Thinks Law VIII Be Administered

Senator Thompson. chairman of the
legislative committee which preferred the
charges against Mccall, said last night :
II think the action OF the Governor
removing Judge Mccall will result in
great public benefit The weakness OF
the Public Service Commission in this
district has been apparent to the rsople
ior some time, Various causes have
contributed to this. but the principal
cause in my judgment has been the mis-
taken attitude OF the men composing the
commission.
There is hut one remedy--resnoyal
and replacement by men more nearly in
touch with popular moral and busines,
ideals. Fidelity to the real purpose OF
the law. therefore. and not any matter
OF personality must have been the motive
for executive action. which II properly
pursued cannot help but improve the ad-
ministration OF the law to the benefit not
only OF patrons and the city, but the
public service corporations themselves, T"

The Congress Of the United States
convened at noon yesterday in the
sxty-fourth session-the great pre-.
paredness session. carrying the largest
programme for national defence in the
history Of the country.

and the navy hope to get $363.s72. .333
Appropriations sought this year are
3l10s53,6l4 more than was appro-
priated at the last session. The army
and navy estimates show an increase
Of sl?i,ooo.OOo.
II is the ..tneral prediction that this
session of Congress will certainly last
into next summer and probably into
autumn. More than 500 bills were
Introduced the first day.
II was agreed that the fight for ma
tonal defence will be conducted in the
House on non-partisan lines. Repub-
leans will be taken into full conf
dence by Democrats. Committee hear.
ings will be open except when diplo-
matte or military secrets are dis

In the House the largely increased
Republican membership caused joyful
