BILL OUT OF COMMITTEE

TRENTON, Feb. 27.-The House
Com mittee on Commerce and Nav
igation last night reported out of
committee favorably the bill in
troduced by Assemblyman Harold
G. Hoffman, of South Amboy,
which will give to the State Board
of Commerce and Navigation the
money derived by the settlement
of the Morris canal problem for
the purchase of a right of way for
the proposed New Jersey Ship
canal.
Assemblyman Blizzard, of Cum
berland, chairman of the commit
tee in whose hands the bill has
been resting for several weeks,
made the favorable report upon
the bill. A hearing was held last
Monday in Trenton on this bill at
which time a large number of rep
resentative waterway enthusiasts
spoke in favor of the proposed
canal, no opposition to the pro-
Ject being voiced during the hear
ing.
Now that the bill has been re-
ported out of committee, efforts
will be made to hasten a vote on

ever, that it will be voted upon to-

THE CABINET
DR.. Work to Succeed Albert
Fall as Secretary of
Interior
NAMED BY HARDING
Senator New to Get Works
Former Office as Post
master General

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27-selec-
ton OF Postmaster General Work 20
succeed Albert Fall as secretary CT
the interior and of Senator Harry
5. New OF Indiana, to become posc-
master general was announced to-
day at the White House.
The change in the cabinet lineup
Is to take place on March 4, when
Mr.. Fall retires after two years se--
vice, and the nomination of Mr..
Work and Senator New were sent
to the senate today to permit their
confirmation before the present ses-
sion OF congress comes to an end.
The selection Of Mr.. Work to take
the interior portfolio has been fore
cast ever since President Harding
began to turn over N his mind the
names of available candidates. A
resident of Colorado and a man Of
demonstrated ability in government
tai organization, Mr.. Work is re-
garded by the President as fulfilling
all the qualifications for an interior
secretary.
Senator New had been offered a
place IN the original Harding cab
iEet, but declined because he
thought he could render the admin
istration greater service by re-
naming in the senate. In last years
primaries he was defeated for re-
nomination, however, and when it
became known that he was under
consideration for the cabinet. an ele-
ment in the Indiana Republican Or
ganization began a determined but
losing fight to prevent the appoint
ment.
Senator News nomination was
confirmed Immediately by the senate
in open session following precedents
of courtesy to sitting members.

SCHOOL BOARD
REJECTSOFFER
Will Not Lease Rooms in St.
Mary'S New ParochiaI
School-Thrift Report

The offer of Dean William p.
Cantwell. of st. M1ry's II. c. church
to lease to the Board of Education
twelve rooms in the new parocf1iaI
hlSh school being erected by that
church at F'ayette and Mechanic
streets, in order to relieve the
crowded conditions in the city's
public schools being rejected by the
school board last night at a special
meeting This action was taken by
the school commissioners by a vote
OF three to one, President A. Clay
ton Clark, hristianCAndersen and
stephen II. Rostkowski voting to
reject the offer while former Pres
ldent John X. Sheehy voted to a.
cept it. Mrs. Elizab d. Oliver,
the other member of the board. was
not. present as she is still confined
TO her home with injuries received
III an automobile accident
The motion to reject the offer of
Dean Cantwell was made by Com
missioner Andersen who, together
with Mrs. Oliver. were made n
committee of two to investigate the
offer of st. Mary's church. The
clerk was instructed to advise
Dean Cantwell OF the boards action
and thank him for his interest in
the matter of solving the citY's
overcrowded school situation.
The only other matter taken up by
the school board last night was the
receipt of a report that the city
school teachers had voted down the
proposition to assist in putting a
thrift system in the schools by vote
of 1SS to 10. President Clark ex-
planned that the board members had
decided to install such a system for
the purpose of forming the saving
habit upon the children if the teach
ers were willing to devote about fif-
teen minutes of their time after
school hours one day week for the
purpose of collecting the children's
deposits. Failure on the Fart of the
teachers to cooperate in this thrift
scheme will mean that no further
effort will be made at this time to
install this method of saving in the
public schools, Mr.. Clark said.

teret some months ago, feat
ured the testimony taken in the writ
of certiorari proceedings before
United States Examiner Thomas A.
Christopher here yesterday after
noon. 1t was during the testimony
of Mayor Thomas J. Mulvihill that
the shooting affray was brought
out. Besides Mr. Mulvihill two
other witnesses were heard. They
were: George, T. Harmed, chairman
of the police committee. and John
Donovan, the mayors selection as
chief. The hearing on the matter
will take place before Justice James
J. Bergen in Elizabeth on March 10.
Mayor MulyihilFs testimony
brought out the fact that Mr.. Dono-
van had not been ma led as chief
because of political reasons. but as a,
benefit tc the town. He declared
that many told him the police de-
partfnent was not being run in the
proper manner and they thought
that change was needed. He stated
that in appointing Mr.. Donovan to
the post he considered that he as
carrying out the wishes of the
people.
He then cited the shooting affray
as one of the reasons for the change
OF chief. lie declared that the mat
ter was one that the chief should
have been able to avoid as some of
he participants were relatives of his.
He held that, knowing what line OF
business they were in the chief
should have had control over them
SO that such an occurrence could
not have taken place. He said that
he understood that the case had
been settled betweel. the parties in
terested.
He recalled that three or four
weeks ago, before the appointing of
Mr.. Donovan as chief, fight had
occurred in which police officer
wa. sstruck in the eye and that other
police officers who were present
made no attempt to arrest the Of
tenders. The mayors testimony
also brought out that Mr.. Donovan
had been a, lifelong Democrat and
was the oldest man on the force,
having served for the past twenty
one years. He declared him to be a
man with the necessary experience
for such a position as chief.
Mr.. Harmed, chairman of the
police committee, state, that the
police committee had a conference
and talked the situation over and
decided to carry out the wishes of
the people and recommended the
appointment of Mr.. Donovan as
chief.
Mr.. Donovan stated that he had
been a Democrat all his life and had
never voted anything but Demo-
cratic ticket.

PoStponement Until Next Ses.
sion of Congress Practical
Iy is Agreed Upon
BY SENATORS TO-DAY
Move is Made in That Direc
ton by Foreign Relations
Committee

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.
Postponement of action until the
next session of congress upon
President Harding's S request for
authority to enter the Interna
tional Court set up by the
League of Nations was virtually
decided on today by the SER
Foreign Relations Committee
! No vote was taken BUT sende
/ representing all views said rIla ~
/ sensus of opinion was that lie iltsses
ter could not~Ae brought before TbS.
senate in IN time remaining before
the present session ends.
The committee decided, however
TO ask for further information. Sena.
tor Lodge of Massachusetts, char
man, said he expected to conefr to,
morrow with President Harding.
Information deemed necessary by
the committee relates especially TO
the powers and jurisdiction of the
International Court and the form of
adhesion of other nations to it, in
cluding what reservations they had
adopted. The extent to which the
labor section of the Treaty of Yer
sailIes may be associated with the
court is another point upon which
information will be sought.
Senator Borah. Republican, Idaho,
presented the committee resolution
calling upon the President for fun
ther information. IT was adopted
without a record vote, but with SEN
ator Kellogg, Republican. Minnesota,
expressing his disa pproval. It says
THAT the President be requested
to advise the committee whether he
fsvors an agreement obligating all
powers, or governments, who are
signers Of the protocol creating the
court, TO submit ali questions about
which there is dispute, and which
cannot be settled by diplomatic ef-
forts, relative to:
"A.-The Interpretation Of t-es-
ties.
"B.-Any question of international
law.
C.-The existence Of any fact
which, il established. would consti-
tute a breach Of an international OBJ
legation.
D.-The nature or extent or rep
aration to be made for the breach q
an International obligation.
E.-The Interpretation OF a sen
tence passed by the court.
Secondly IL the secretary. tf
state favors such an agreement, does
he deem It advisable TO communi-
cate with the other powers to ascer-
tain whether they are willing to ob-~
ligate themselves as aforesaid.
In other words, are those who
are signers Of the protocol creating
the court willing to obligate them
selves by agreement TO submit such
questions as aforesaid, or are .hev
to insist that such question shall
only be submitted in case both, or
all. parties interested agree to the
submission after the controversy
arises

Not Turned in Local and

Bills Cannot be Made Out
Notices Sent to Delinquent
Places

NEW BRUNSWICK, Feb. 27. -
The Middlesex County Board of Tax
alton is handicapped in it's work of
arriving at the 1928 tax rate as he
result of failure on the part of sew
eral municipalities to turn over tie
local and school budgets. A request
was made of all of the municipalities
in the county early in the wear that
they speed up their work in turning
over local and school budgets in cr-
der that the county might announce
the tax rate and thus make it pos
sibIe for tax clerks to make OUT the
bills and give property owners an
opportunity to appeal.
Notices were sent out to the de-
linquent municipalities last week re-
questing the proper officials to send
at once their local and school 'oud-
gets to the county board but none
of these have been received to dete.
There are still ten local and eight
school budgets to be received before
the county board can determine the
