SILVER SPEAKS AT TRENTON
ON UTILITY QUESTION


TRENTON, Oct. 26:-Speaking
here last night George s. Silzer,
Democratic candidate for governor.
again attacked Senator Runyon on
his utility stand. Quoting from SEN
ator Runyon's speech at the meeting
in East Orange, where both candi-
dates spoke before the League of
Women Voters. Judge Silzer said
that by his own words Senator Rum
yon advocated absolutely nothing
new. but on the contrary said that
he merely hoped that "by the enact
ment of legislation which will give
the public more detailed information
concerning the conditions of utilities
that the present unfortunate condi-
ton of a suspicious public win be
done away with" Further along,
Senator Runyon suggested that II
they had this additional information
the public would then edo their part
without cavil and without further
strife" In other words Senator
Runyon's idea seemed to be that the
best thing that could be done would
be to get the public to willingly bear
the burden that the Public Services
companies are putting on them, Mr..
Silzer said.

Darragh had said nothing about the

he knew Darragh. That was sufti-

thing to do.
Yet-Eve had swum Star Pond

When she had handed the moroc-
co box to Quintana, Stormont now
realized that she must have played
her last card on the utterly desper-
ate chance that Quintana might go
away without examining the case.
Evidently she had emptied the
case before she left her room. He
re~collected that, during all that fol-
lowed, Eve had not uttered a single
