GOVERNOR ASSAILS
ALBANY LAWMAKERS
Only One Constructive Bill
Was Passed, He Says.
Spec,oi DespotcA to THs suN.

ALBANY, April l9.-Gov. Smith an
nounced tonight that he would summon
the power of pitiless publicity to show
the people OF the State exactly how
STEPPED in Bourbonism" was the Re-
publican Assembly when the 1919 Log
islature passed spectacularly out OF ex-
istence tonight.
The Governors statement was issued
few minutes after the Legislature ad-
journed. and followed bristling counter
statements from the Republican and
Democratic leaders, each of whom placed
upon the other all the blame and censure
that may be Forthcoming for the things
the Legislature has done<pr left undone
THE legislative session Of 1919 has be-
come part OF our history, and Il does not
contribute bright page" said the Gov
ernoTs statement. up to and includ-
ing the day OF adjournment only one
constructive measure of Statewide i'm
portance was sent to me for considera-
ton. The Senate was fairly respon-
sive to enlightened public opinion, but
the Republican majority in the Assem-
bly, gave itself solely to the care of prop
erty and property rights.
"Steeped in Bourbonism they dedi-
Gated themselves TO the principle that
constitutional and statute law Inv de-
mocracy is intended only for the preser-
walton Of property and privilege. BY
their refusal even to debate humanita-
rian measures tending 10 safeguard the
lives, the health and the welfare of men,
women and children, they enunciated the
policy that our great human resources
must take care OF themselves as best
they can, and are not entitled to the pro-
lection of the State. They flung to the
four winds the salutary lessons taught

one of the bills passed by the Assem-
bly, but killed by he Senate was the Sla.
Ger bill creating a state motion picture
censorship commission. This measure
was put through after both the Senate
and Assembly had passed the Thompson
Donohue bill legalizing the exhibition Of
motion pictures on Sundays with the
consent Of the governing bodies OF cities
This was signed by the Governor.
In the matter of accomplishment. the
legislative bodies claim much. Commit
tees of the Legislature were authorized
to make thorough investigation of Boil
shevism to study the rent profiteering
situation and recommend a remedy, and
to complete the study of the States tax
alton system and recommend improve
ments.
Charges Of a $500, 900 fund to promote
passage Of the Carson Martin Increased
trolley fare bill brought about an inves-
tlgation by the Senate Judiciary Commit
tee and this committee has been empow-
cred to continue its work for another
sixty days to see II there was any basis
for the slush fund story.
The State Tax Department will be re-
organized under a bill introduced three
days before adjournment by Senator
Davenport, chairman OF the tax commit
tee II substitutes a bipartisan board
OF four commissioners instead of the
present three man commission. increases
their salaries from $4,000 to $4,000, and

firmation. The motion was seconded by
Senators Burlipgame, Black, Russell and
Carroll.

The appointment by Gov. Smith OF
Surrogate Herbert T. Ketcham Of Kings
county as Supreme Court Justice to sue
coed Justice Robert II. Roy will relieve
John IL McCooey Of a somewhat en-
barrassing situation. The Democratic
leader of Kings county said that the
news was surprise to him, as he had
thought that the Governor would not
take up the appointment until next week.
However, 1t Is suspected by those IA
miliar with the situation that he is
nightly pleased over the selection and
purposely refrained from knowing any
thing about it."
Surrogate Ketcham will be SO years
old In November. and as a Judge must
retire at the age of 20 would not have
been renominated under any circum-
stances. 1t then would have fallen to
Mr.. McCooey to have picked a candi-
date to succeed him. AS Mr.. McCooey
holds a 5000 job as clerk to the Surro-
gates Court It would have been deli
cate task to have picked the candidate.
Now Gov. Smith will select man to
succeed Surrogate Ketcham He will
be renominated in the fall, and while
no one doubts that he will be the man
agreeable In every particular to the
Democratic leader. Mr.. McCooey can
avoid the responsibility OF having picked
him and the candidate can avoid the
charge Of having been chosen because he
would reappolnt McCooey clerk of the
court.
McCooey will have the selection Of a
candidate for Supreme Court Justice this
fall to succeed Justice Ketcham, who be-
cause OF age will be ineligible to hold
that ONCE after a year.
Justice Ketcham was born in Hunting
ton, l.. l., In November, 1850. He was
graduated at Williams College He had
practised law in Brooklyn until his
election as Surrogate twelve years ago
In 1911 he ran for the Supreme Court,
but was defeated along with William
Willett, the other Democratic nominee,
who went to Sing Sing for having paid
money in connection with his nomination

ALBANY, April 1.-the Carson-Mar-

ate to-day without being discussed, and
the Senate without debate passed reso-
lutions granting its judiciary Committee
power to continue for not more than
legged $500, 900 bribery fund raised to put
the bill through the Legislature.
Senator George f. Thompson Of Mag
ara. whose charges caused the inves-
tigation, issued statement giving the
lie TO some of the testimony that has
been offered tho Judiciary Committee
since he was on the stand. including that
OF former Governor Charles s. whitman.
I'm Justice to the reputation of several
men whose names have been mentioned
and concerning which do not deem It
fair that I should withhold any explana-
ton for any considerable time. and in
consideration Of the fact that have had
no opportunity to make a statement be-
fore the Judiciary Committee since the
names were mentioned, and owing to ad-
journment will have no opportunity for
a [ least two weeks" said Senator Thomp-
son. Il desire to say that the witness
Burke was mistaken in his reference to
Chief Judge HIscock Of the Court of APP
peals. whom know made no attempt
whatever, directly or indirectly, to infiu-
ence the Legislature. or even inform
them of any desire of his in the matter
at all. From a special instance OF some
years standing l have complete conf
1ence for all time in the integrity and
fair mndedness OF Judge Hiscock, and II
Is sufficient to say his name was not
used In any conversation with me, as
suggested by Burke.
