DAYLIGHT SAVING
REPEAL FAVORED
Governor and Farmers for Re-
moU0I From Statutes.

Special Despatch ia TiIE NEW YoRK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Albany, Feb. ..
The fate of New York States daylight
saving law will be decided next Tues
day at a conference of Republican leg
lslators. The intention OF the readers is
to repeal the law and give to the cities
the right to enact their own daylight
measures Many city legislators of the
majority party, however. are getting
back of the Booth bill. which would
continue daylight saving but shorten
the period from seven to five months.
They believe that daylight saving is of
inestimable benefit 70 the greatest num-
Der of the people or the State and that
confusion viii result IL the law is re-
pealed and II is left to cities to enact
their own ordinances.
The leaders influenced by the plea of
the farmers, will make every effort to
force the Republicans In line for an out
and out repeal. II considerable num-
bei of the city members object they may
endeavor to make the repeal a party
measure.
The leaders have consulted Gov. Miller
on the subject, and It is understood he
is in favor of removing the law from
the statute books. If next Tuesdays
conference indorses that position the
question of giving cities daylight saw
ing local option right will be thrashed
out. Many believe they now have that
right; others that, as there is some
doubt. 1t should be specifically stated in
the law This will be done in the re-
peal bill or in measure, amending the
law, making 1t clear that
cities can have daylight saving or not,
Just as they please.

lakewood BILL GETS
EDUCATION BOARD o. X.
Affords Relief in S27, 900, 900
Budget Deficit.

Resolutions approving the Lockwood
bill now pending before the Legislature,
which would relieve the Educa tioIal
Department In the matter of the S27.-
100000 deficit in the budget allow
ances made by the Board OF Estimate,
we're adopted last night by the Board
Of Education at its regular monthly
meeting. The board president and the
cSty superintendent of schools were
authorized 70 cooperate with the State
Commissioner of Education in regard TO
legislation to relieve the situation
brought about by the budget deficit.
The States contribution to the schools
will not exceed $4,000, 900 or S12, 2,o00,-
600, 1t was said. but the board will join
with Frank H. Gilbert, acting State
Commissioner of Education, in asking for
legislation that will provide the S27,-
600, 600 needed. Commissioner Arthur
$. Somers disapproved of a bill intro
duced IN the Legislature which would
empower the Board OF Estimate to
transfer uncXpended appropria tons
from the account to which they had been
designated to any other city department.
He also went on record as opposed TO
the proposed law which would permit
the transfer of civil employees from one
department to another.
Mr.. Somers also presented resolution
directing that all school expenses be
limited to the s50,00o.00 provided In
the budget until State aid is obtained.
This will not interfere, however, with the
departments building programme. The
resolution was adopted.

The fact that the moneys appropri-

purposes Mr.. Fearon said. is being
used BY certain persons topay for prop
aganda against bills pending before the
Legislature speaks volumes. 1t is a
practice which should be stopped by leg

The bill, he said, simply restores to
the Board OF Estimate and Apportion-
ment In cities where there Is no sepa-
rate school budget or tax power to re-
wise the departmental estimates made by
the Boards of Education after consul
tation with the board and discussion of
educational needs. He said reports had
been sent out from Albany that tho Ill
would result in the reduction Of teach
ers salaries.

President Wilson greatly resents re-
ports that he will go into seciusion when
he retires from the White House on
March 4. Any idea that he will with
draw from active interest or evan par
ticipation in public affairs is unautnor-
lied and unwarranted. according to the
declaration of Mr.. Tumulty to-day. On
the other hand, Mr.. Wilson at his resi-
dence in Washington will continue TO
observe developments, taking hand
when. in his opinion. II is advisable for
the general good OF the country.
The statement by Mr.. Tumulty seemed
necessary because of n despatch sent
out by an important press association
asserting that Mr.. Wilson would be in
seclusion for time. The report cred
tied friends of the President with the
assertion.
Mr.. Wilson, Secretary Tumulty aided.

he desires. and TO public meetings The

Approval Of heavy tax on the larger

yesterday in a statement by Edward
S. Cornell, secretary OF the National
Highways Protective Society. He said
the 500 fee for trucks OF more than five
tons capacity proposed In the New York
Legislature might be confiscatory. but
that there was need OF a graded tax.
The damage done by heavy vehicles TO
the highways in the spring was an i'm
portant reason for the tax penalty. as
even the best constructed roads will
break down under such loads, he said.
