People Ku KIuxed by 1923
Legislature, Governor Says,
at Democratic Rally
TELLS OF DIVORCE BILL
Open Specifications Measure
Also AttaCked-County and
City Candidates Heard

Governor George S. Silzer, speak
ing at the Democratic mass meeting
held in the Auditorium here last
night fayed the 1923 Republican
legislature for it's failure to enact
laws which would benefit and please
the majority of the people, referred
To that body as the "Follies of 1928"
controlled by board of guardians
working behind the scenes and
charged that the people of New Jer-
sey were "Ku Kluxed" by an in
visible government which controlled
those in the legislature.
The governor said the 1928 legis-
lature has been referred to by many
as "the worst legislature in the his
tory of the state. "I don't think 1t
was any worse than many others,
the governor said, "but many think
: 1t was worse because the legislators
Nwere found out"
When members of their own party
such as Speaker of the House Evans
and Assemblyman Hershfield OPEN
ly declare that large amounts OF
money were being spent to influence
the Republican legislators in voting,
the governor said. there must be
some truth to the reports. He spoke
of the fight on the Evans and Dater
water bills and read from a news
paper clipping which quoted Evans
as declaring that $4,000 had been
used to bring pressure on the mem
bers in the fight over tue water bill.
Referring to Assemblyman Hersh-
fields statement that an entire dele
cation had reversed itself over night,
acting on orders from it's boss, the
governor said it was further proof
that the people were not governing
themselves.
Attacks Divorce Bill
Governor Silzer attacked the di-
vorce bill as passed by the Republi-
can legislature. He maintained that
happy religious and contented homes
make the best kind of a state and
declared everything should be done
to preserve the sanctity of marriage
instead of making divorce an easy
matter. He told of the destruction
being wrought in Russia where mar
riage is no longer necessary and re-
ligion has been banished. The gov
ernor said he vetoed the easy divorce
bill passed by the Republican legis-
lature but it went ahead and pro-
ceeded to pass it over his veto.
The night work for women bill
was mentioned by the governor. "For
three years" he said, "the passage
of such a bill was a part of the Re-
publican platform but the party fail
ed to carry out its pledge. The party
would not have passed such a bill
last year If they could have avoided
1t but such pressure was brought to
bear upon them, particularly by the
women of the state, that they found
bit necessary to attempt to pass it,
Even then, the governor said the
Republicans lacked two votes neces-
sary to pass the bill and Mrs. Lillian
Feickert, one of the Republican
