EDWARDS DECLARES
WAR ON BLUE LAWS
Greater Liberalization of Sun
day Called for in Message
to Legislature.
URGES DAYLIGHT SAVING
Protective Legislation for
Women Workers Also Among
His Recommendations.

A call to combat the blue laws pro-
gramme the iced for further protective
legislation for women and the support
of daylight saving are points Of general
interest which were emphasized by Gov.
Edwards of New Jersey yesterday in his
message to the State Legislature. Aside
from attributing the blue laws pro-
gramme to the same forces which
brought about the adoption of the
Eighteenth Amendment. Gov. Edwards
made no mention Of prohibition or its
enforcement.
The message goes further on the sub
ject Of the Sabbath than merely to warn
New Jerseys Legislature against the
activities of DR.. Wilbur F. Crafts and
the Rev. Harry Bowlby. 1t advocates a
greater liberalization of Sunday.
On the ground that New Jerseys
present Sunday law is unfavorably re-
garded In many localities in the State.
witiA the result that ut becomes unen-
forceable at the hands OF grand juries
and is, therefore. publicly condemned"
breeding a contempt for law in general.
Gov. Edwards recommends that gen.
eral act be passed allowing for local
ontion in the matter of outdoor recrea-
ton.
With respect to the proposed blue
laws. Gov Edwards said II regard It as
nv duty to suggest to the Legislature
that no such bills should be enacted
into law. 1t has been the vain but futile
hope Of misguided people for many

RED HEADED SON !
OFFERED AS ALIBI
Ex-Army Officer Says He Did
Not Pose as Unmarried Man
to English Girl.

Justice Faber in the Supreme Court
Yesterday in the action for separation
brought by Mrs Grace E. Miller against
Harry c. Miller. an agent for the Metro
poltan Life Insurance Company. who
served in France as Major OF field
artillery The Justice ordered that all
photographs and letters mentioned In
testimony be submitted to the court. in
cluding the letters alleged to have been
written to Miller by Miss Maud Bigg. a
daughter of Gen. Sir Thomas Bigg OF
the English army.
Miller went on the witness stand in
his own defence during yesterdays seq
sion of the hearing. He declared that
his conduct with Miss Bigg was always
proper. and that he had considered her
his social superior.
He was asked If Miss Bigg knew he
was married.
Everybody about camp knew 1t and
don't see why she. did not" said Miller.
"She certainly knew about the, party
that was given me on the birth OF my
son. | kept saying l hoped 1t would be
a red headed youngster. and when I
learned that it was l made much to do
about it, 1t was after that that they be-
gan calling me Happy Old Man"
Earle Booth, Long Island City
theatrical manager and a lieutenant
colonel during the war. was character
witness for Miller. He was one Of the
three men who with Miller occupied a
chateau at Bourges. He said that the
relations between Miller and Miss Bigg
were perfectly proper at all times.
"If you saw a young woman with
her hand caressing the head of a young
man as Miss Bigg is caressing Major
Miller would you consider 1t proper?" he
was asked.
'In the case of Miss Bigg would con-
slider it all right" said Booth. II have
photo Of Miss Bigg in my pocketbook
now. I always carry it."
"Why?'
Because I want to show II to my
friends to illustrate the great work done
by these titled English women"
do you carry photo Of your wife
in your pocketbook?"
NO" said Booth. ''I do not

forty-eight hour week and the prohibi-

Widening OF the powers of the State
Board OF Taxes and Assessment so II
shall have the power on its own initiative
to order. or itself make. a reassessment
of property in any taxing district with
out individual notice of the proceedings
to each taxpayer. This is recommended
as "a potent encouragement to the prac-
tice of under valuation. Its exercise. the
Governor believes. would secure a greater
equality OF assessment as between tax
ing districts and as between counties.
On the general SUBJECT Of taxation the
message states THE equal distribution
of the increasing burden OF taxation
continues to be problem OF vital i'm
portance to the people of the State. We
are more fortunate than some OF our
sister States in that we have not, thus
far. been obliged to find new sources of
revenue. With rigid economy in public
expenditures and the efficient admins
tration of our present system of provid-
ing for budget requirements we should
be able to avoid the necessity of seeking
additional subjects of taxation"
The Governor asks for the creation OF
a special committee consisting of repre-
sentatives from both houses of the Legis-
lature TO confer with him on some con-
crete programme for the completion of
the States highways and "the seemingly
absolute requirement that the institu-
tions and agencies OF the State for its
feeble minded and other unadJusted per-
sons be placed on proper basis"

In 1907 and in 1914 the period was but few
months.
When the armistice was signed thousands predicted
terrible depression because there would be jobs
for four million demobzed soldiers. But war had
stopped production of civilian needs and there
work for everyone.
And in meeting those requirements during the past
two years other important work was sighted.
