saying.

he couldn't come II would be because he
was obliged to spend the evening con-

All members OF the league attended
the reception given by the Governor and
Mrs. Miller at the executive mansion to-

feeling was shown all around.

Law making in the interest of vet
Grams Of the world war will form an

pear. and the former service men in the
Senate and Assembly have organized to
scrutinize all proposals affecting them
and their comrades. Assemblyman David
r. Jeffries Of Niagara has been made
chairman and Assemblyman Arthur E.
Brundage of Orange county secretary.
The service men are preparing bill
providing for raising money for bonus
by direct tax instead OF by a bond
ISSUE for which a referendum, and con-
stitutional amendment would be needed.
They are opposed to resorting to a con-
stitutional amendment on the ground
that 1t would take from three to five
years before the bonus money would be
available.
Assemblyman John T. Kerrigan OF
Albany to-day introduced bill making
it Il misdemcanor to sell or pawn medals
men also are interested in the Brundage
bill requiring the State Boxing Com
mission to license an armory In every
city for the holding of boxing exhibi-
tons. Assemblynan Brundage had the
bill amended to day so as to exclude
New York city from its provisions be-
cause of differences over the proposed
measure among the sporting fraternity
In the metropolis.
Among general bills introduced to-day
was one by Assemblyman Hamill, pro-
viding for standard loaves OF bread and
representation of weight on each.
Assemblyman Dickstein put In bill
providing for the licensing by the State
Comptroller of all banks, telegraph, tele-
phone and steamship companies and
tourist agencies transmitting money to
and from foreign countries. 1t is similar
to a bill last year Of Senator Cotillo,
who charged that millions of dollars
were turned over to steamship and ex-
press companies by foreigners to be sent
to relatives In Europe and never reached
their destinations The Dickstein bill
would put all such companies under
State regulation.
Assemblyman Roseman OF New York
would make landlords in first class cities
liable to damages suffered by tenants
resulting from failure to make necessary
repairs. He would also create State
advisory housing board and authorize
cities to establish housing boards.
