During the examination of prospec-
tive jurors the defence laid great
stress on prejudices they might have
IN favor of England. and whether they
would be influenced by the flight Of

fendants was an alien of German

Senate Committee
Holds Back Name
Of Miss Perkins
Nomination to Industrial
Commission Will Be Re-
ported Out in a Week. Ex-
plains Chairman Sage
Staff Corrcspondence

STAFF Correspondence
ALBANY, Jan. 28.-Thc Senate Fl
nance Committee to-day reported out
all the nominations made by Governor
Smith, with the exception of that of
Miss Frances Perkins, Of New York.
Miss Perkins, who was named for an
$4,000 a year place on the State IN
dustrial Commission, is opposed by the
merchants and manufacturers of the
state, who demand that one Of their
number be represented on the board.
Senator Henry NJ. Sage, chairman of
the Finance Committee, said the name
Of Miss Perkins probably would be re-
ported out in a week "for the consider
alton of the Senate"
From other sources it was learned
the Republicans virtually have agreed
to vote against Miss Perkins's nomina-
ton Senator J. Henry Walters, leader
of the majority, said protests against
confirmation of Miss Perkins have
poured in on him daily since Governor
Smith announced his decision to uame
her.
The Democrats threaten to charge
that the sole objection to Miss Per-
kins is because she is the first OF her
sex to be nominated for a we'll paying
place. The Republicans have met this
by offering TO confirm otfhand any
women employer of labor whom the
Governor may nominate.
Commenting on the action of the
Senate Finance Committee, Governor
Smith said:
- have no intention OF withdrawing
Miss Perkins's name do not feel
that the action Il the finance Commit
tee represents the viii OF the majority
IN the Senate, and shall hold to that
view until the Senate votes on the
nomination."
What if the Senate refuses to con-
firm ?"
THAT bridge will be crossed if We
come to it, replied the Governor. "I
have hopes that that bridge will not De
reached"
Miss Perkins took q prominent part
on the legislative factory Investigating
committee. which was instrumental in
framing the present labor laws. Gov
ernor Smith was a member of the COM
mission. Miss Perkins is the wife of
Paul Wilson, formerly executive sccre-
tary to Mayor Mitchell
