SENATOR ATTACKS
/ T|LSON AS JUDGE
Presidents Recess Appoint
ment Strongly Criticized by
/. Harris of Georgia.

The spirit of the Constitution -
eVaded by President Coolidge's second
recess appointment of William >. ~.
son. brother of the Republican t1oor
leader. TO the Federal judgeship OF the
middle district of Georgia. Senator
Harris, Democrat, of Georgia az.
clared last night. %
The appointment, announcement "
which followed a call by Represent
ative TiIson at the White House. was
characterized by Senator Harris as
'the first Federal judicial appoint
ment in my State to pay "a poHtica'
obligation" ,,or.;s
The statement by Senator Harris
follows: ..,o,,.
II regret very much that President
Coolidge has given Judge 'nsull
another recess appointment, as ~ -
generally known that majority OF
the Senate opposed his confirmation.
when Congress created the new dls,
trict Senator George and | learned
that Representative TilSon, Repupii-
can io6r leader. would urge the ap
pointment Of his brother, Josiah III
son of Atlanta. who did not reside IN
the district where there was a va
caney.
Wants Local AppOintee.
1--WE told the President that if he
felt obligated 10 give Representative
Tilson's brother position We
hoped he would give him some other
appointment, as we would feel con.
strained to oppose the nomination OF
Mr.. Tilson or any one who did not
reside in the district; that there were
Republicans and Democrats residing
in the district who We're quahhed Tor
the position and tina, 'ew districts
in the United States had more able
lawyers.
Although Judge Tilson was in.
dorsed by Ben Davis. negro national
committeeman from Georgia, i do not
believe he would have thought of
recommending Mr.. Tilson or any one
else outside Of the district except for
the influence of Representative Tilson
OF Connecticut.
80 far as l know. this is the first
Federal judicial appointment made in
my State to pay political obliga-
ton. During the Wilson administra-
tion IL was largely my recommends
tion that brought about the appoint
nlent of Judge Sam Sibley of the north
ern district and Judge Alex King of
the Circuit Court of Appeals. Neither
one of these men had ever taken any
part in politics, but both were out
standing lawyers. ] recommended
them above others who had political
claims on me.

BRA770N REVEALED AS SMULSKI YOUTH
True Identity Of Man Involved
 in Inn Fight Learned

The young man who Is held in
 s5, ,0oo bonds for theft of an auto
 mobile. following the shooting at the
 Triangle Inn. Farmlngton. last
 Wednesday morning, has admitted
 that he is kasimir Smulski. aged
 20. of 264 North Burritt street. and
 not William l.. Bratton, as he
 claimed at the time of his arrest.
 He will be arraigned in Pennington
 town court on March 15 on the
 charge of thett of an automobile.
 When Sergeant O'Mara visited
 him at Hartford county jail last
 week. he thought there was some-
 thing familiar about the young mans
 appearance. but he could not identi-
 " him positively. Saturday eveu-
 ing. however. Sergeant OMara and
 Officer Feeuey, having come into
 possession of additional information,
 again went 10 the jail and told "Bratton" they did not believe him and that his name is Kasimir Smul-
 ski, whereupon the young man ad-
 mitted he had been nluffing al- though he feared he would be de- tccted.
 Some months ago, Smulsh was brought from l!oridal to Hartford on the charge of thefts of aIltomo-
 piles, and in superior court he was
 given suspended commitment to the state reformatory at Cheshire. He was arrested in this city in Oc- tobar, 1924. for breach Of the peace land assault by Sergeant O'Mara, but judgment was suspended. Jt was also learned by the po- ilice that Smulslli and Julian Janik Of Bristol. who was shot in the i iTriansle Inn aifray. were with two
 New Britain girls in T car owned [ by David Conn Of Mahl avenue,
 Hartford. last Tuesday night when Officers Grabeck and Mccarthy saw them in this city.
 The markers on the ear have been found 10 be of the 1926 issue, paint ed over to give the appearance Of 1927 markers The job was so skill fully done that the Pennington po- lice did not observe the deception, The original markers were taken off 1 the car and those of another car , painted over.
 h the opinion Of the police, the local young women Were aware of Smulski's identity. although they told Sergeant ONara they knew him only as Hratton. This opinion is str, nsthened by the fact that one of the girls lives in the vicinity Of North Burri,t street.
 Whether or not J1nik will recover is not known. He is in a serious condition at St. Francis hospital. Hartford. The bullet fired by Offi- cer Hansen of the Hartford police, was removed by ali operation Sai- Urday.
 It was learned today that the re 2istration for the automobile owned by Salvatore Greco of lS3 Washing ton street, this city. and which was stolen February g, was found in
 Janits possession after tho shooting, l. is probable that this charc" will be preferred against him when fe IS able to appear in court.
