BRITISH NAVAL HEAD
SAYS HE WAS MISQUOTED

LONDON, March 17-Lord Lee
of Fareham, first lord of the admit
rally. declared today that his ref
erence to the United States in his
discussion Of naval matters at a
meeting of naval architects yester-
day had not been quoted correctly.
What he really said he asserted
was:
I'VE see the naval committee of
the United States senate laying
down the principle that America
shall maintain a navy at least equal
to that of any other power. That
is a claim 10 equality which this
country nevCr has accepted IN the
past and never would ACCEPT save in
connection with the great English
speaking nation which sprung from
our loins and ever holding a great
place in u regard and confidence.
. The difference between our
formula and Americas is too slight
to be made the subject of contro-
versy still less Of friction of hos
tility."

vorce from his wife. Elizabeth NJ.

ton is now being INDUCED in as to
possible appointees to the utility
commission to succeed the names
which Governor Edwards sent to
the senate and which were rejected.
While 1t is thought that the gov
ernor may resuLmit the names of
Messrs. Hamill and Hoff there seems
to be no indication on the Republic
can side of the senate to take any
other attitude than the majority has
assumed with respect to these two
men.
The name of former L. s. District
Court Judge Thomas G.. Height, of
Jersey City, is now being mentioned
as a possibility :or one OF the two
places. 1t is generally conceded
that this would be a very fine APP
pointment, but it is extremely
doubtful whether Mr.. Height would
accept. He resigned from the fed
eral bench over a year ago in order
to sun the private practice OF
law. Another name heard is that of
former State Senator William Ed
win Florence of New Brunswick,
who is now q member CT the state
board of conservation, an honorary
position. State Tax Commissioner
James Baker, of Jersey City, is dis
cussed as the third possibility. All
three of these men are Democrats
and the governor has two places on
the board to fill from his W
party.
Action Against Lobbyists
Before adjourning for the week
yesterday the senate took action to
keep all lobbyists, who have been
very active at the present session.
off the floor for the remainder of
the present period of the legislature.
Advocates and opponents of various
bills now pending in the legislature
have been cry thick in the corri-
doris of the State House and on the
floor of the Senate and House for
the past few weeks and the matter
was brought to a head in the Senate
yesterday when Mr.. Case of Somer-
set called the matter to the atten-
ton of the upper House and declar-
ed it to be intolerable.
President Allen stated that he
had already taken official notice of
the situation and that he had given
orders to the sergeant at arms that
all unauthorized persons be kept off
the floor of the senate beginning
Monday night.
After being held up for several
weeks in the upper branch of the
legislature. the Franklin bill repeal
ing the preferential method of
voting for city commissioners and
restoring the old comparison pri-
mary for these elections, passed In
hat body yesterday. An amend
ment was added to provide thai in
cities where five commissioners are
to be elected the voters shall select
at the primary fifteen candidates
to be placed on the ballot for the
ensuing election. This change in
the act will necessitate its going
back to the Assembly for action on
the amendment.
The bill is distasteful to the plans
of the Democratic administration in
Jersey City. where Mayor Frank
Hague and his fellow commissioners
will be candidates for reelection at
the coming spring balloting.

fled the freight agent at Maurer
