Those Who Helped

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Many Of US appreciated your editorial
of yesterday entitled Home Rule Advances"
referring to the wise decision Of the Court
of Appeals in unfolding the constitutionality
of the optional city government law"
This piece of constructive legislation was
initiated a number of years ago by the Mu-
nicipal Government Association of New York
State. 1t is the result of scientific drafts
manship and of careful study Of experience
elsewhere. Its merit consists on the one
hand in its progressiveness and on the other
hand in its elasticity. Those OF US con-
nected with the Municipal Government As
ISOLATION Of New York State are rather proud
that one portion OF the associations original
programme should be now so firmly es-
tablished.
Incidentally. much credit is due to Mr.. Win
fred T. Denison, who argued the case in the
Court of Appeals as amicus curie on behalf
Of the association, and to Mr.. Lawrence
Arnold Tanner, who presented with Mr.. Deni-
son the very effective brief fled on behalf
Of the association. SAM II. LEWISOHN.

stands. while the criminal remains, his
gains still unrestored, there can be no

it will not be covenant Of peace. We

the doctrine of force, the gospel Of blood
