ers. Gov. Miller and the home rule ad-
vocates.
The Tolbert- -Ulman constitutional
amendment has been picked out Of the
dozen or more home rule proposals as
the basis for action. Several amend
ments were decided upon and will be
introduced In both Houses tomorrow.
They exclude counties from the pro-
visions Of the act. Under the amend
ment the governing boards OF cities,
towns and villages are TO have control
over their local affairs.
Il Is understood that the bill now has
the backing OF Senator Lusk. the ma
jority leader. and that IL it passes the
Senate Speaker Machold will not hold
It up In the Assembly
Senator Tolbert talked with Gov. Nil
Ter this afternoon on the bill In an
effort to enlist his support. 1t is not
believed the Governor will place any
obstructions In its way. although he
would rather have had the whole Home
Rule problem threshed out first by the
New York Charter Revision Commission.
The determination OF the Home Rule
advocates to get action at the regular
session is prompted by the failure of
the Charter Revision Commission to be
ready to report in time for an extra
ordinary session of the Legislature this
summer.
Assemblyman O'Connor OF New York
failed In his motion to have the Rules
Committee discharged from further con-
sideration Of his bill to abolish The

The Assembly also voted down As
semblyman Merrigan's motion to force
out his bill providing that women shall
be represented on political committees.
Assemhlyman Joseph L. Steinberg said
he has the assurance OF a favorable
report from the Rules Committee on his
bill transferring from the New York
city Bureau of Licenses to the Police
Commission supervision over and power
of licensing taxicab drivers. The bill is
backed by Chief Magistrate William
McAdoo. and Mr.. Steinberg said that

1T IS we'll to keep an eye on
the word that takes a new
meaning. When a perfectly
good word assumes a defni-
ton that our grandfathers
never associated with it, and
goes junketing around the
business clubs and conven-
tions, getting its name in the
papers and forming unseemly
associations with other words,
it will bear watching.
The word Service has been
doing that very thing, and
it is about time Service came
to its senses and went back
to work at its old job.
All over this country there
are people who, when they
buy something, don't want
any more than they think
they are going to get.
Service to those people is
not something for nothing
that they do not want, but
something that they do want,
delivered when they want it,
at price that is within reason.
If you buy a vacuum clean
er or player piano or a cook
stove, you don't want some
body calling you up every
two or three days and asking
if you are satisfied. You don't
