THE LEGISLATURE
PERFUNCTORY SESSIONS
A EulOgy On the Jewish People
Relief Day.
BILL OF STATEWIDE INTEREST.
Providing ALI Alien Employees be Given
Equal Benefit.

Following the election of John Nj
Dennis as state treasurer YESTERDAY
afternoon as forecasted in the Cauital
of yesterday there was a complete
iet-down about the State House this
morning.
Perfunctory sessions were held in
both branches of the General Assembly
but little of note occurred. There had
been a plan on the part of number
of members to adjourn over for the
weekend but Metzerott, and other
republican leaders rallied their forces
and with few democrats successfully
blocked this. So the learned la "
makers will be compelled to remain
until tomorrow when after a short
session IN the morning they will ad-
journ until Monday night.
In the Senate following the routine
of business President Campbell, official.
ly noticed President Wilson's Jewish
Relief Day proclamation. From the
rostrum he eulogized the Jewish
people and commended the effort to
secure for the suffering members of
this race in Russia and Rumania the
much needed financial aid.
The only bill of local interest offer
ed today was that put in by Senator
Duvall to compel the State Roads
Commission to take over the care and
maintenance of the South River
Rri dye, which is now a part of the An
napolis to Solomon's Island State Road,
and which for some time past has been
a great source of expense to the coun-
ty.
or considerable statewide interest
is the bill offered today by Delegate
Hall, of Baltimore city, providing that
all alien employees of Maryland corpo-
rations and business firms shall be
givensequal benefit in payment for in
juries in their occupations. This is
accomplished by an amendment to the
w orkingmen's Compensation law,
which does not now allow the alien
employe to receive any benefits from
his employees insurance of his work :.
men.
Delegate Shartzer of Garrett, has
not ended his fight for vindication be-
fore his people on bis vote ON the
Spieeher Local Option bill two years
ago. He will today or tomorrow have
the original roll-call on that famous
measure photographed for such use as
he may later determine to make of
it. Senator Spjecher also plans to get
8 copy of this photograph.
Mr.. James W. Owens of Annapo-
lis has prepared and will endeavor to

GarlB0hS Resignation HGlps

Washington. February ia
new note of harmony and co-op-
erasion on National defense prob
ems was struck in the House
Military Committee today as a
direct result of the resignation of
Secretary Garrison of the War de.
partment. 1t found expression
N the adoption of a resolution
declaring the commlttee's apprs.
clatlcn of the confidence President
Wilson reposed In it and in the
Senate committee az disclosed in
mis- correspondence with Mr. Gar.
rison.
The non-partisan character Of
she feeling was emphasized by the
fact that the resolution was of.
fered by Representative Kahn of
California. ranking Republican
member of the committee.
Members of both the conpres.
sional committees declared thst
the War secretary's withdrawal
had brought out sharply the Pres.
'dent's desire shat Congress should
work out it's army peoblems in the
light of it's own best Judgement,
despite the personal preference
for the continental army scheme
advocated by Mr.. Garrison and
the Army War College. The net
result, they agreed was olsrifi /.
cation of the congressional atmo.
sphere and the assurance of SUP.
port for the bills that will be
drafted from elements of both the
Demccratlc and Republican sides
that had heretofore been counted
against the measures.
