Jersey Dry Bill Passed
Over Governors Veto
Senate Overrides Edwards on
Enforcement Act; Trial by
jury Is Denied
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

Aopectut DtSp0tcH 20 4 ne Irtoune
TRENTON, N. j., March 29.-New
Jersey now has prohibition act that
is more drastic than the Volstead law
The Senate to-day overrode the veto of
Governor Edwards and repassed the
bill presented by Mrs. Jennie c. Van
Ness, of Essex County, which already
had been approved by the House.
The most drastic feature of the bill
is the provision denying the right of
trial by Jury. A defendant is tried un-
der the act by the judge of the Court
of Common Pleas without jury. An
other stringent provision is the one
that allows first offender to be fined
$1,000 and to be sent to Jail for six
months.
Governor Edwards based his veto
message on the alleged unconstitution-
ality of the deprivation of the trial by
Jury, but the drys met this by showing
thar the Commissioner Of Motor We
hicles now has the power to send a
man to Jail for driving an automobile
willis intoxicated.
Both the House and Senate passed
the Elliott bill, which regulates the use
of alcoholic liquors for on-beverage
purposes. Under this bill, which will
now 60 to the Governor, it will be pos
sibIe to prescribe beer for medicinal
use under the Palmer ruling.

Whalen Suspends
Bus Supervisor
And 2 Assistants
Commissioner of Plant and
Structures Charges One
With Graft; Gusts Others
Pending> an Investigation

Grover A. Whalen, Commissioner of
Plant and Structures. yesterday sus-
pended the chief supervisor and his
two assistants, who have control Of the
ten municipal bus lines and 200 buses
operated in Manhattan, Brooklyn and
Queens, as result of an investigation
into charles Of graft.
Assistant Supervisor Jacob Weinman
was turned over to Detective Sergeant
Brierton to be taken to District Attor-
new Lewis's office, in Brooklyn, to be
examined on the charge of receiving
$500 graft from bus owner in return
Tor an assignment to a profitable route.
Commissioner Whalen said that he had
an affidavit from the bus owner, in
which he swears that he paid Vein
man that amount.
Commissioner Whalen called the
three supervisors into conference yes
terday and laid before them the re-
suits of the investigation which he had
been conducting quietly for the last few
weeks and then he removed all three
missioner explained that he had no evil
dence duplicating Chief Supervisor
Frederick Richter, or the second of the
assistant supervisors, Robert Donofri.
II have evidence against only one of
the bus supervisors, Jacob Weinman,"
said Commissioner Whalen. ''Still, I
feel it is essential in order that my in
vestigation might be unhampered to
have all bus supervisors suspended
pending the determination of the in
quirv."
All of the busses are privately owned
and operated, the owners keeping all
their receipts in payment for the serv-
ice, being simply licensed and assigned
to the routes by the municipal super
visors. Some of the routes, Commits
sioner Whalen said, were much more
profitable than Others; for example, the
Eighty-siXth Street cross-town line.
where each bus collects about $50
