Governor Says He
Favors Home-Rule
New York Charter
Declares Commission Ought
to Set Up Agencies in Gov
ernmcnt of City to Pro-
vide for All Its Affairs
Rv o ston Correspondent

ALBANY, Jan. Ex-Governor Miller
is leaving the proposed new charter
for New York City entirely In the
hands of the Charter Commission. The
Governor said tonight he expected
the commission would "devise the
largest possible measure OF home
rule"
II mean by that" he added, "that
control by New York City over purely
local affairs should go to suitable
agencies of the city government, which
trust, will be set up in any charter
that may be adopted.
"The truth is that nobody wants
home rule for New York except as
something to talk about, and the poop
who arc talking about it most want il
least. Just as soon as they get home
can't run up to Albany and get relief
from this or that. As for me, l am
in favor Of real home rule"
The Governor was informed that
former Justice Francis M. Scott, chair
man Of the commission, had been re
ported as saying he favored chartc
giving New York City full power t.
conduct it's business and leglslatlv'
affairs, but that exercise Of police
power Of the state should be preserved
with limitations. Governor Miller
said this sounded reasonable.
With regard to regulation of public
utilities as state function the Gov
ernor said state authority should be
preserved He also expressed the
opinion that no home rule amendments
should be considered by the Legisla
ture until after the proposed charter
had been submitted.
With regard to a paragraph in the
Governors speech in which he said
that by further economies in state adj
ministration taxpayers would be saved
a direct tax to meet the $22,000,000
teachers salary increase, Governor
Miller said he was unable to see how
his words could have been construed
as they had evidently been construed
in some quarters, as indicating inten
ton to cut out the increase to teach
ers.
II am sorry that misunderstanding
arose." said the Governor. II was
pointing out that the teachers salary
increase would be met by savings CT
fected through departmental cuts"

Victor i'm Third
And Final Clash
Polka Dot Easily Defends
International Trophy
Against British Challenger

Polka Dot, the property Of Z. A. Bull,
Prospect Park Model Yacht Club, sue
eessfully defended the international
Model Yacht Trophy when Il scored her
third straight victory over Endeayor,
the property Of W. J. Daniels Of Lon
don, of the Bayside Yach, Club, TO-
day. The little American craft de-
fcated the English challenger over a
windward and lceward course, which
was sailed twice, by minutes and 81
seconds. Il was the first race in which
the challenger finished the entire
course.
Half way across the bay. the yachts
split tacks and when they came TO-
gether Endeaver was leading FOR the
first time In the series. AZ that hour IL
looked as though England was az last
going 20 win one Of the race. Skipper
Bull, who had been having a little
trouble with his boat, finally managed
% trim his sails 20 his satisfaction and
Polka Dot began 10 cut down Endear-
or's advantage.
When they came down on the first
mark Skipper Daniels showed his In
experience in handling a model yacht
from a rovbost. As on Friday, he mis-
Judged the mark and was swept 10 lee
ward. Il enabled Polka Dot, splendidiy
handled by Skipper Bull, 70 turn the
mark first. The Englshmans poor
judgment cost him q good FIVE min
utos. To make matters worse, his
mslnsheet parted and he lost two more
minutes. Those seven minutes cost
Endeayor the race.
After the race il was stated that In
all probability the United States would
send a model yacht 20 Great Britain
next year and that the international
cup would be raced abroad, regardless
Of the fact that America had won the
present series.
