Invasion OF Personal Liberty

JERSEY CITY, April 7-Governor
Edwards before leaving for Trenton
declared the vote for him in the
Michigan primaries indicates an
awakening of the people to the dan
gers of an invasion to their personal
liberty. He was enthusiastic over the
result, notwithstanding latest returns
indicated he ran behind Herbert
Hoover.
"It was not opposition to prohibi-
ton so much as opposition to being
deprived of a personal right without
an opportunity to pass upon the
question that brought out the vote
for me in Michigan" he said 1T
was spontaneous. / did not lift
hand for 1t and no one campaigned
for me in that state"

TRENTON, April 7.-Governor Ed

victory he won IN the Michigan
prim4ries of yesterday. He said:

STILL No JUDGE
NAMED FOR CITY
Governor Fills Other Judge
ships and Other Officials,
But No Local Court Action

Despite the fact that Governor Ed
ward /. Edwards is making appoint
ments to various courts throughout
the state of district court, supreme
court and circuit court judges no ac-
tion has as yet been taken in renam-
ing Judge Charles G. Hommann as
Judge of thePerth Amboy district
court. torships, memberships
on various state commissions and
other appointments are being made
constantly by the governor and still
there is the unexplainable delay In his
action upon the case of Judge HON.
mann here.
There is little doubt here but that
Judge Hommann will be renamed, es-
peciaIly since John L. TOolan, who
was a candidate for appointment, an
nounced that he would retire from
the contest. Because of the fact that
Judge Hommann's name has been
the only one mentioned here, no solu-
ton for the long delay in this being
officially named Is forthcoming.
