CONTEMPT" ENTRY
OFF COURT RECORD
Judge Omacht Withholds Fine
When Apology is Made
For Remark.

Amicable legal relations severed in
city court Wednesday morning be-
tween Atty. Charles A. Hagerty and
Judge George Omacht were adjusted
Thursday by a "nunc pro tune" entry
by the latter. which wipes off the
record the citation of Atty. Hagerty
this move came after a closeted con-
for contempt Of court.
Judge Omacht's decision TO make
ference with Atty. Hagerty in the
ante-room OF the city tribunal which
was followed an hour later by Hag
erty appearing before the bench and
making long explanatory apology
Of what prompted his remark.
The attorney reiterated what he
said Wednesday after Judge Omacht
had announced that he was fined for
contempt by saying his mildly re-
mOnstrative remark" that the five at
torneys nominated by Omacht were
all Sunday school teachers" was
made spontaneously and without
! forethought."
/ Hagerty also declared that 10 his
/ knowledge never in the history OF
the circuit or superior courts has an
attorney of the St. Joseph county bar
been cited for contempt. He said
that when a rebuking remark is
made by an attorney TO a court that
ii always has been the custom TO
allow the attorney TO apologize and
not TO have the stigma Of citation for
contempt imposed.
Following this Judge Omacht said
that the declaration that Hagerty
had made Wednesday was in itself
sufficient grounds for contempt, but
that he had faith in the attorney
sincerity in his apology and that ne
would wipe the citation from the
records.

New York city's telephone bills VIII be
increased by more than s11,00o,o00 a
year by an order made to-day by the
Second District Public Service Commits
sion. On April the rates will be ad-
vanced 2s per cent. This is done by
eliminating the 5 per cent. decrease in
rates granted TO New York city in Sep
tember. 1919, and adding 80 per cent
to all rates and charges to exchange tele-
phone service and facilities.
The permanency of the increase. how
ever, Is to depend on further hearings
OF the application of the company for
authority to put into effect schedule
OF rates filed last September, now under
investigation by the commission.
The company is required first TO file
with the commission q bond, with the
American Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany as surety. providing for the repay
nent to all subscribers, upon the final
determination of the proceeding. or by
the courts order in the event II is TO
be judicially reviewed. "of any amounts
paid by said subscribers from and after
April /, 1921, in excess of the rates or
charges which may be fxed in such
Anal determination with interest at the
rate OF six per cent" Upon compliance
with this condition the company may file
upon five days notice tariff in accor-
dance with the order.
The company reported to the com
mission later that in order to preserve
the effectiveness OF its service 1t had
to increase salaries and wages about
S11, 100000 a year Existing rates do
not yield sufficient revenue to meet the
payrolls. the company maintained, and
iii its petition asked for s16oo0.00O addi-
tional revenue.
The commission held several hearings
and found that many moro Will have 70
be held before the proceeding can be DE-
ter1nined. The s11, 100000 has been given
temporarily, and upon the result OF the
future hearings will depend whether any
more of the 100000 is TO be allowed
TT appears to the satisfaction OF the
commission" the order says, from the
evidence and general knowledge Of con-
ditions, that the increase in wages made
effective since the order OF September
1919 was issued makes necessary an ad-
ditto lai annual expenditure OFF S11.00O,-
600. After due deliberation IL Is the
opinion OF the commission that it should
at this time, in order to prevent serious
damage being done the company, consent
to an immediate further Increase, nod!-
flying the former schedules established
by the commission"

always second step, and you may con-
fidently look forward to the consumnla-
tion of the second stage of this wrong.
The first step by exploiting corporations
is to take from the people what belongs
to them. The second step-and reac-
ton never varies in this-is to take
from the people their political rights so
that they may be prevented from REM

The Hylan administration has lost no
time opening its campaign of obstruc-
ton against the Governors transit bill
passed yesterday by the Senate. Be-
fore the measure is approved by the
Assembly, city representatives made
known they are laying the ground for
attacking the law at every possible
point
William A. Walliug, Assistant Corpor-
alton Counsel. announced that city oftl-
cials will contend the transit act is being
passed in violation of the Constitution.
The first injunction requested will be
based on that allegation.
IN addition the obstructionsts, who
are bert on making the transit act a
political football or the next city cam
paign, made a move in the Assembly.
They have raised a cry that the bill
ia city measure and therefore must
be referred 20 the Cities Committee and
a further hearing held. The Judiciary
Committee has handled The bill in the
lower house.
No action was taken by the Assem-
bly to-day. The vote was postponed
until next Tuesday, when it is expected
firal action will be taken.
City officials dug out Article II Of Sec
ton OF the Constitution as The basis
Tor their opening legal shot. This article
defines general and special city laws and
defines how each shall be passed. II
provides that a special city law. which
relates to single city. must be made
the subject OF public hearing in the
city affected and must go TO the Mayor
OF that city for his signature.
II the contention were sustained II
would follow that the bill had been
passed illegally. and. further. the Mayor
would have the right to veto 1t. That
would make 1t necessary for the Legts-
lature to pass the measure over his
veto by a majority vote. The latter
would be simple, but it might necessi-
tate prolonging the session OF the Leg
islature.
The Governors advisers and lesisia-
tive leaders were not at all disturbed
bv this attack They have not been
caught off guard. The constitutional
provision was considered fully and tts
provisions complied with III every de-
tail, it was stated at the Governor

would reveal graft and corruption.
There may be something in what
Gov. Whitman says. / would not at

lative inquiry at this time?"
The Governor has nothing to say
about that excepting that he might veto

certainly not oppose an inquiry If there
is reasonable ground to think that one

Another proposal on Gov. Millers
economy programme became law to-
day when the Chief Executive signed
the bill reorganizing the State Tax De-
partment and combining under it all
OF the tax collection agencies of the
State. These include the motor vehicle
bureau. now in the office of the Secre-
tary of State, and the income, corpora
ton, stock transfer and inheritance tax
bureaus, which are under the Comp
troller.
The new Pax Commission is to be
composed OF three members, all Of

is to have sole charge Of administra-

prises in Stock.

While the city administrs ton is pre-
pairing TO go into the courts at the first
opportunity to nullify Gov Miller's bill
for the solution OF New Yorks' transit
problem, move first. will be made to
man9uvre the Albany administration
into such a position that a court fight
will not be necessary. but that Mayor
Hylan may be able personally TO kill
the bill with one stroke OF his pen and
thereby assuming the political role OF
savior of the city.
That became apparent yesterday when
John P. OBrien, Corporation Counsel.
stated that the first move OF the city
the passage OF the bill now being a GER
tainty-would be insistence with every
resource that the measure must be SUBJ
nlitted for the approval OF Mayor Hylan
before 1t can become law. If the law
department of the city once could get
the bill on the Mayors desk it Is con-
cedad it would have not the remotest
chance ever of becoming law. Failing
to obtain the acquiescence Of Gov. Mil
Ter to that view OF the city's rights, 1t
is expected that that aspect will be
made an early point OF attack.
The fight on that point has been be-
gun, Mr.. O'Brien indicated. in the re-
quest, now pending. for another public
hearing upon the bill before the Gov
ernor affixes his signature.
When asked what will be the city's
first step in the legal battle Mr.. OBrien
replied:
"That depends largely upon the atti-
tude of the Governor. II is not possible
10 tell Just what course will be pursued
rhis far ahead. No definite programme
OF action has been determined upon.
Previous statements of the Corpora

special counsel, have shown, however,
that the city is preparing to go TO the
United States Supreme Court, II neces'
sary, in a fight upon the constitutionanty
