TELEPHONE co. SAYS THAT
ROOSEVELT EXCHANGE STAYS

CARTERET, March 14-After a
study of more than two months,
officials of the New York Telephone
Company came to the conclusion
that the change of the telephone ex
change from Roosevelt to Carterer
would greatly conflict with the
sound of such exchanges as "Lafay-
ette" of NeY York, and Market"
of Newark.
This was the claim of Theodore
Spawn, manager OF the Perth Am
boy Commercial office of the New
York Telephone Company this
morning in response to a statement
which appeared in the Evening
News last night accredited to Max
we'll Sosin, secretary of the Carte
ret Chamber of Commerce, that the
telephone company has decided 10
change the name of Roosevelt to
Carteret in line with the appeal sent
by that organization and others
urging the change.
Mr.. Spawn explained the reason
why the change could not be ef-
fected, saying that the company was
willing to place any other name
that may have been suggested for
use instead of Roosevelt, if it would
not conflict with other stations in
this vicinity. The company Official
also said that the company will
list Carteret under its proper head

De Voc Urges Full
of Old Highway Board;
House For Bridge Probe

TRENTON. March 14--An unus-
ual situation arose in the House
yesterday when the Republican ma
jority refused to consent to a wide
open and thorough investigation Of
a Democratic body-the "ousted"
State Highway Commission. More
over, the proposition for that thor
ough investigation came from none
other than Assemblyman De Voc of
Middlesex, one of the fifteen DEM
ocrats. in the lower mouse.
The matter came up during the
deliberations over the Stevens reso-
luton calling for an investigation
Of the old highway board as to its
conduct in the proposition of con-
structing the so-called Amboy and
Hackensack river bridges. The
measure passed the senate. and
under its terms. the committee was
to consist Of three senators to be
appointed by senate president and
three assemblymen to be named by
the House speaker.
However. this phase CT the bill
was amended in the House by Ma
jority Leader Corio so that the
speaker of the House and the pres
ident of the senate would be mem
bers of the committee. They will
under the change, appoint two
members from their respective bo-
dies.
After this amendment passed, AS
semblyman DeVoe of MiddIesex
county attempted to further amend
the resolution so that it would not
confine the investigation to two par
ticular incidents, but on the contrary
extend the probe to cover all of the
acts of the commission.
"Why do you object to a thorough
investigation of Democratic
board?" asked Mr.. DeVoe of G., O..
P. Leader Corio.
The majority leader refused to an
swer the question propounded and
simply moved for the previous
question"

SILzER ROAD BOARD TO Be
SWORN IN TODAY
(Continued from paee !,

Senator Albin Smith, of Passaic,
another of the Republican members,
although present failed to vote on
any of the roll calls either for or
against the nominees.
Senator Allen. of Salem, former
president of the senate, was not
present at the executive session.
Grateful to Newspapers
I am grateful to the newspapers
for the help they have given in this

ton was carried to him. 'I feel
1t will be great benefit to the peo-
pie, not only in the saving of money
but in the bringing of good roads.
The people ought not to forget the
men in the senate who stood con-
sistently for the protection of their
interests
Majority Senate Floor Leader
Stevens, of Monmouth. who with
Senators Case and Whitney were
conspicuous in the early days of the
fight in standing for cooperation
with the governor in getting the best
road board possible, refused to make
a statement on the final result. He
even did not want to be put in the
such sentiments were offered be-
cause he felt keenly the necessity
of parting with his colleagues on the
Republican side who failed to see the
situation the way he and the others
who voted to confirm did. Stevens
attitude was shared by the major
lty of those senators who voted to
confirm. They all realized that they
were breaking party lines in what
they did, but they felt that this time
principles and not parties were in
volved and they had to go with the
former.
1t will take sometime for the feel
Ing in the ranks of the II members
of the Republican side to heal.
Those who were classed as the "bit-
ter enders" today look askance at
the eight who voted to confirm.
THE Republican Party has been
betrayed" declared Senator Rich
ards, of Atlantic. The governor has
his political board and his is going
to be the responsibility. The major
ity of the Republicans in the senate
and all the Republicans in the House
believed that the minority Republi-
can senator's (the eight) broke faith
with them. These men are not of
the high calibre they should have
been and for that the governor and
the eight Democratic-Re Republican
senators are responsible"
Final Action
The last effort of the forces on
the Republican side who tried to
block confirmation came in the con-
ference of the senate majority just
before the executive session which
resulted in the approval of the four
names. The seventeen Republican
members gathered in the senate
presidents office, including Allen, of
Salem, who was not present at the
executive session. Mr.. Richards

that the officers do not enforce the

Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-03-14

the governor fatty declined, when
approached by a senatorial commit
tee, to make this move.
The general comment has been
that the Republican leaders in and
out of the legislature who jockeyed
and fiddled with the road board pro-
gram for seven weeks seriously in
jured the prestige of their party and
the longer they delayed the solution
the bigger they made Mr.. Silzer in
the eyes of the people of the state.
Whether the fight will have any ef-
feet upon the political complexion
of the next legislature remains to be
seen. If the election for the 1928
legislature were held next week it
might be decided factor, but many
months will intervene before the
people have a. chance to express
themselves and in the interim their
minds will divert to other subjects.
Whether the Democrats will be able
to capitalize the mistakes of their
opponents this session to a degree
sufficiently strong to affect the next
election is another matter for the
future TO indicate.
For the G. o. P, however, there
is consolation in the thought that
the governors victory was only
achieved through the agency of the
band of Independent senate Republi-
cans, led by Stevens, Case and Whit
ney. These men have saved their
party from a total eclipse in the
highway row. Without them con-
firmation of the governors nominees
would have been impossible as the
four Democratic members of the
senate were numerically inferior to
the accomplishment of this object.
These Republican senators stood
at bay the rest of their own party
colleagues in the upper House and
the entire membership of forty-four
Republican assemblymen in the low
er branch.

executive session as the caucus de-
cided. But the proposition failed to
meet the sanction of those senator's
who intended to vote for confirma-
ton. They knew if the caucus voted
to reject they would be bound to that
program.
II have been a member of the
senate for six years and this is the
first time the attempt has been made
to hold q caucus" declared Senator
Case looking at Richards. Il was
sent down here by the people of
Somerset county to vote as ! saw fit
and not to be bound by caucus decis-
Ions. And whether it's caucus or
not intend to remain in this meet
ing"
senator Richards, after the ex-
ecutive session, declared that he
would have moved for a caucus in
the conference meeting, but seven of
the senators for confirmation de-
clared they would leave if this was
done. He said Senator Blackwell of
Mercer, however, was not of this
group.
Another version of the conference
meeting was that on g. vote either TO
reject OF confirm the Silzer nom
inees the vote stood 8 to 8, with
Smith of Passaic, not voting. There
has been some talk that Mr.. Smith
IS displeased with the way United
States Senator Edge acted in the
last fight for senate president when
Smith, presumably the Edge candi-
date, was beaten by Wallworth OF
Camden. The rumor was that
Smith felt that Edges friends did
not exert themselves sufficiently in
t,r Do to MN
d winner. Inasmuch as most o1
| those opposing confirmation of Edge
men, it is assumed that the PassaiC

senior senator's forces in this fight
| Mr.. Smith could not be reached
| however, to get his personal ex-
| planation as to why he failed tC
vote in the caucus or in the execu-
| tive session on any of the four
names.
Larson Makes Charge
Whether reprisais on the part oi
the bitter enders" in the highway
commission fight Will be made
against the eight senators who voted
to confirm on their bills in the clos
ing days of session remains to be
seen. Yesterday on the floor of the
senate, Immediately after the execu-
tive Gession, however, Senator Lar
son of Middlesex, charged that an
unimportant bill of his in the as
sembly was not being moved be-
cause of his attitude on the road
situation.
Larson's commene was provoked
when an attempt was made to get
the senate to concur in the House
action giving Speaker Evans of Pas
sale, authority to introduce two bills
relating to the water situation in
north Jersey.
It has been said in the corridors OF
the legislature that the feeling be-
tween the two Republican factions
in the senate over the highway mud
die has become so intensified that
some of the members do not speak
to each other.
Out of it all, however. Governor
SilZer emerges victorious. In the
face of the strong attack on his
appointees the chief executive stood

cede one inch. When the drive was

had been\the target for considerable
criticism and as member of the
body in question would welcome a
thorough investigation for the pur-
pose of a full vindication of his
name.
Corio added that DeVoe's amend
ments were drawn to simply protect
Mr.. Burton. He added that if the
