HUGHES PLEADS FOR
PUBIC SERVICE LAW
Speaks at Dinner GiUen for
Ex-Commissioners.

Charles E. Hughes father of the Pub
lie Service Commissions law when Gov
ernor, pleaded last night for the proper
administration of that law as a means
OF protecting from public clamor the
great ''instrume ntalities OF public serv-
ice." the corporations, whose rights. he
declared. should no more be invaded
than should the rights OF the public.
He was the first speaker at a dinner
rendered in the Hotel Pennsylvania to
Travis H. Whitney. Charles s. Harvey
and F. J. II. Kracke. the three commits
sioners legislated out OF Office during
the last session Of the Legislature to be
replaced by q single administrative and
a single regulative commissioner.
Mr.. Hughes was followed by former
Governor Whitman, who drove a good
natured shaft Of criticism at Gov. Smith
for his appointment of John II. Delaney
to the commission. After Col. William
Hayward spoke the three retiring COM
missioners briefly expressed their ap-
probation Of the compliments paid them
The dinner was attended by most Il the
men who have from time to time been
connected with the Public Service Com
n ission and by many persons prominent
IN Republican politics.
Mr.. Hughes declared that he rlEards
the Public Service Commission law still
as an essential for regulation In Il de-
mocracy. He scored the injection OF
politics into the commissions and he
pleaded for experts to serve upon them.
You might just as well turn n fool
into the Public Library to peruse an
abstruse study" he added, "as to make
Public Service Commissioner out of a
man inexpert in the vast mass of in
formation and the voluminous figures
and reports which the science OF reEula-
tion has accumulated in order that jus
tice may be done on a given occasion
when that occasion arises"

Fl. PERRY ROBINSON
LAUDS WAR WRITERS
Barring of Correspondents
Error, He Says.

1t was the Judgment of all the speak
ers at a dinner of the Association OF
Foreign Press Correspondents, held at
the Cafe Maurice last night, that the
profession OF war correspondent will ex-
list as long as war does and that in the
war which is Just ending the correspon-
dents who wrote about It performed an
important service to the world and to
literature.
II. Perry Robinson. who throughout
the war was attached TO British Head
quarters as correspondent for the Lon
don Times and whose stories we're print
ed in THE SUN, was the principal speak
err and told how at the beginning OF the
war II was all but impossible to obtain
or despatch important news and how II
seemed to be the general opinion that
war correspondents would soon cease
to be.
"But one OF the curious and unex-
pected eventualities of war" he said,
has been the reesta bill shment OF the
Importance of war correspondence. q
was Lord Kitchener's view at the be-
ginning that the public should be barred
from all knowledge Of military events
and at the entrance of England into
hostilities he rang the curtain down.
But the attitude toward correspon-
dents changed In 1915, and ultimately
the dispatches of men who were with
the armier thrilled the world. Never In
any great war has the world been SO
faithfully and accurately. informed of
every detail in the progress of events as
Il has been from the side of the armies
fighting against Germany during the
last two years. It is a fact OF justifia bic
pride to the press and of great impor-
lance to democracy"
Mr.. Robinson spoke also Of the great
admiration Of the British army for the
fighting qualities OF the American SOL
dier and the talents OF Gen. Pershing as
q commander.
