District Attorney Gives Testimony
Before the Page Commission.
Attorney Jerome 7.»s called to the stand
yesterday morning before tin Pace Commission
r.arsed to Investigate the lower courts. He. dip
ruFsed the- epeedlas of antomobUlsta. the ccrmp

d:Scu'ty cf petting m nf high character on the

Arter the campaign of IS9I ■ committee of seventy
tvas formed to change laws regulating the iimmli
traMi courts.
Mr. Jerome Bsli that the members of the com
mittee thcupht judpes of Sptclal Sessions and mag
-.s-Tratrs alike Kboulf be of the highest character,
mt»dem»?.r:s- t.eliip. as a rule, young men at the
'.rr.'.r.s points of tiieir lives susceptible to influ
ence »rd proper treatment. -
•"Always- in the »<lrr.}ii*.Sirf.tlor. at law,*" he said.
•there :s the personal equation. I could say, as a
jjdee. thet mj- own Judfrment was not unlfonn. I
may have l>^en ■; late. There may have been pome
th:::g In the personal f.p;ie .ranee of the defendant

tboofibt. would dominate such conditions with one

Mr. Jerome • x press. --1 doubt whether many men
of 1 ich Ope Tvcre willing to '"sacrifice themselves"'
xn the cause of justi»-»j iiy becoming magistrates.
and said that no public officer was fo h«norahl«
and upright that lie -ris not Improved ly the
JkTiowletise that some oce ■ is watching him. In
rep->' to questions put to him hy Julius Mayer,
coonsel for the commission, he «aid he did not ap
pr.-ive of the proposed takinK of minutes In mac
iftra^^s' courts. It would leave the door open to
bribery of Menc-praohers ana lilaclcmail, he con
tended. "From the Court of Special Sessions," ho
Mid, "it is almost imp"Fsible to get a transcript of
rei-ords that's Intelligible.**
v."je?tlon«i al-out the project of fir, \ ing fixed i«il
penalties for persons violating the automobile
Epeed -rdiriar.ces, the Ulstrict Attorney said he did
;. 1 believe the plan would work well " practice.
He dxeA the case cf « man who had. he said, been
tr r eK ;,^i ti< ? "second offender." and had put his
antom*bae In a srarage and kept It there because of

Mr. Jerome said that he did not believe the final
disposition of automobile cases should be In the
ha: :r of maglstraies.
Tb« favored the suggestion that a chief
ijdge of Special Sessions te selected- He ceid that
h« believed a bracn of judges could better pass
Eemence for felonies than can single judges.

Frank Moss, president of the Society for the Pre

with the handling of cases Sn which he had been
Interested, either as a lav.-yer or as president of
the society^ "However," he said. "I believe there
:s m..re breeding of anarchy in these lower courts

WANT PRIMARY BALLOT
Republican County Committee Rec
ommends Official Vote.
The executive committee of the Republican County
Committee at a special meeting yesterday after
noon, with one dissenting vote, recommended to the
county committee and the Legislature the passage
of a law providing for an official primary ballot.
The committee of fifteen which has been wres
llng fnr two months with the subject of direct nom
inations a:iu election law changes presented its re
port, through its chairman, Coliin H. Woodward,
vice-chairman of the county committee. The report
was received, but not adopted. The main trouble
yesterday was lack of time to discuss thoroughly
the report of the committee of fifteen. This com
mittee met in the afternoon at the office of William
Chllvers, No S5 Nassau street, and after discussion
decided by a vote of 13 to 2 to recommend a bill
resembling in many respects the system now in
use in New Jersey, but retaining the convention
system.
The dissenters were William H. Wadhams and
Mr. Chilvers, who presented a minority report The
two reports were turned in to the meeting of the
executive committee. Representative Herbert Par
sons made a special trip from Washington to at
tend the meeting of the executive committee. The
meeting was shortened to allow him to catch a
train at about 7 o'clock back to Washington.
Messrs. Quivers and Wadhams said that they
would not recommend a bill that called for the re
tention of the present convention system, and they
advocated the Hitman-Green bill favored by the
Governor.
After discussion these resolutions were adopted,
the vote being unanimous, with the exception of Col
lln H. Woodward, who baa worked nights and Bun
days for the last six or seven weeks framing an
election law.
Resolved, That the report be received, but that
the committee, not having had time to study the
bill, is unable si this meeting to express an opinion
thereon; further
Resolved. That the committee urge upon the
Legislature at this time the enactment of a law
providing for an official primary ballot, a reform
the need of which is admitted by all and which
has been repeated!} urged by this committee.
CLEMENT AGAINST BILL.
Doesn't Think Sunday Opening
Would End Graft.
Albany, A] daring his opposition to the
opening of saloons on Sunday? between 1 and 11
p. m. In first class cities of the state, as proposed
In a bill before tlie Legislature, ltaynard N. Cle
ment, State Commissioner of Excise, bas .-• nt a let
ter to ministers throughout in whiph he
expresses the belief that with more rigid police
ions saloons i an be compelled to close on the
Sabbath. The letter ;s a reply to one received from
the Rev. John P. Peters, chairman of the Com
mittee of Fourteen, of New York '
Commissioner Clement refers to "the marked lm
> Sunday observance of the excise law
obtained in New York under Police Commis-
Roosevelt,** and adds that this improvement
een repeated during the last cix months not
only In Buffalo, • rally throughout Erie
County" through The efforts of the Civic League of
Buffalo.
The Commissioner points out that the liquor tax
law "is unquestionably a police regulation," and
expresses the opinion that if citizens Insisted upon
a rigid enforcement of the law by local authorities
better results would ■■ obtained. Commissioner
Clement says he sees no reason to believe, as
claimed, "that the adoption of the plan to open the
saloons from 1 to 11 p. m. on Sundays will put an
end to graft." He expresses his approval of a bill
introduced by Senator Agnew, which "proposes
such a degree of state supervision of police as
would prevent demoralization of. a police force Of
a city by improper local Influences." "In my opin
ion," says the Commissioner, "it would go further,
if enacted, toward the enforcement of the Sunday
closing law than any other plan 'that has been sug
gested."
Approval is given by the Commissioner to the
plan of the Committee of Fourteen, embodied in
its bill, looking to a reduction of the number of
license places. . .
Commenting on the assertion that the adoption of
the Sunday opening plan would put a stop to graft,
Commissioner Clement says:
I fail to see any reason to justify thin hope. T!lT !lP f e
will remain the same temptation and opportunity
for graft on Sunday before 1 p. m. and after 1,
p m It will be the same as now with the saioon
thai desires to keep open nights after 1 a. m. during
the week and with the unlicensed place that -runs
without paying any tax. This is the richest field,
it yields the most graft, because these places pay
no tribute to the fctate or the city. The same is true
of the disorder!) and gambling places and pool
rooms, none of which could by any possibility be
affected by an amendment that would lawfully open
the saloons during a few hours on Sundays. '■'-. is
too much to expect, when police grafting has be
come general, because of the many protected
abuses, that partially correcting; one ol them will
cure the others. The fault lies in a defective sys
tem uf police control.

legislation providing for regulation of these cor

The Merchants' Association, which a few years ago
conducted h crusado gainst the "Telephone Trust"
with an investigation of service and general condi
tions, later adopting resolutions favoring state reg
ulation and supervision, has not appeared actively
in favor of the Davis-Francis bill.
It Burn? certain that the closing day? of thin leg
islative session will see a hot battle to have this
measure passed. The Senate passed It hist year by
a considerable vote, but to date It ha* not been re
ported from the Judiciary Committee. Supporters
of tlie measure believe fhnt, one; 1 reported, It will
l»e passed by the Senate without much difficulty.
Then 'responsibility lor i's fate would be squarely
up to Speaker Wadswxirth and his Rules Commit
tee. The contention that the Rules Committee
could not report tnls bill s.ive on the request of
two-thirds of the membership of the house does
not weigh very heavily with Its supporters, who
hold that this rui- wouid not apply to a Son:.:"
bill. At any rate, the invoking of that rule to kill
the bill, they say, would be practically a confession
by Speaker .Wadfiworth that lie was against It and
desired its death, in spite of his reiterated prom
ises to do all he a old t • help its passage.
