ing the reelection of Senator Nathan
Straus jr., at meeting last night of
the Independent Committee Of Women
Voters, said that the committee had
more important legislation to be acted
on IN the next legislature than had
been presented to date, and declared
that men of Strauss caliber were sore
ly needed there
"Our chairman, Senator Lockwood,
has retired to private life," said the
speaker, "and am anxious to have
Senator Straus become member of
our committee, but whether he is ap-
pointed or not, ! know he will fight
our battles for us on the floor of the
Senate"
Mr.. Untermyer Gid not intimate the
nature of the new housing legislation,
but said that 1t was of such a char
acter that it will meet violent opposi-
tion from the lobbies, and that "fear-
less, outstanding men in the legislature
on the side of the people against these
entrenched predatory interests" were
needed.
Mr.. Untermyer enumerated Strauss
public achievements, and reminding
