FRANK MAYO I DELAY RECESS AT HARTFORD Consider May 9 as Likely5 Date for Two-Week Legislative Rest. (Special to The Sentinel) By CLARENCE G. W'ILLARD HARTFORD. Conn.. April 21.— \’i"hile it was announced by Sena- tor Ella and _Major Buckley in their respective Houses some weeks ago that the legislature would recess on May 2nd for two weeks and then re- turn to take up matters which the Governor might fail to approve for final adjournment, it seems now that it will be necessary for the legisla- ture to stay in session at least until May 9th before taking such recess. There are several reasons for this. not the least of which is the judge- ship appoiuttnents by the Governor which were long delayed because of the failure of the bill providing for the two extra jurigesliips to reach him in the legislative procedure which it has to go through. This bill has now reached him. but the nom- lnations have to remain on the cal- endar for three days, then go to the other House. then to the Judiciary Committee and come back with a favorable report before the Houses can ballot on them and confirm them. The confirmation. of course, is a matter of form, because judge— ships have not been turned down in recent years. buf t‘lie'legislation takes time and with the other business which is coming in. it is doubtful if the recess can be taken before the date mentioned above. The Governor also has other appointments to make which he will send to the Senate sooner or later. but these appoint- ments are merely referred to the Committee. on Executive Nominations without being on the calendar three days. as is necessary in the case of the judgeships. In addition to the Superior Court judges. there are oth- ers which require this same preced- ure. including the New Haven Coun- ty Common Pleas Court judges and the judges. of the City Court of New Haven. all of which will undoubtedly come in in due time. The bill which was the result of the, meeting in \Valcrbury which it was necessary for the police to break up sometime ago. entitled “An Act concerning Conduct Inciting Refor- mation or Overthrow of Government lby Force. Violence or Unlawful Means" which really was an act which pretty generally circumscribed the right of free speech. was re- committed in the House this week and it is probable that the legisla- ture has seen the last of it. It was raised by the Committee on the Ju- diciary through the efforts of State's Attorney Arnon A. Ailing of New Haven. immediately following the trouble in Waterbury. The Judiciary Cthmittce did not expect to pass the bill in the form in which it was drawn. but merely wished an oppor- tunity for free discussion on the mat- ter. When it came up in the House. it was tabled and subsequently was rccommitted. 1n the meantime. how- ever. after the publication of the bill, there had been a strong protest from the professors of the Yale Law School against this bill, calling at- tcntion to powers which closely cur- tailed. the right of free speech. The professors of the Yale Law School departed from the time honored pol- icy of spreading their recommenda- tions in the new‘spa‘pér’s before their coming to the legislative committee . and so it was shown that the profess- ors. or at least a majority of them. were-anxious to assist in this matter and were not seeking for personal publicity. Quite often the legislative committees have been the recipient of letters which get to them only through the newspapers. the writers . merely wishing to spread their views before the public and giving the leg- islaiors the same privilege of becom- ing familiar with them which goes to the public at large. This unique change in procedure made such an impression on the Eudicinry Commit-r too that Mr. Ailing has been inform- ed that anything on which he and the profesors of the law school agree will be favorably considered by the Judiciary Committee and ultimately by the Legislature. A meeting be- tween the war- like State's Attorney for New Haven County and the con- servative instructors in Connecticut’s leading law school would prove in- teresting to the public. if it should be allowed to come in. Following the example of the House, which had passed the so-call- ed E. Kent Hubbard bill over the veto of Governor Templeton by a. majority of about four to one. it was passed in the Senate. It had been frankly stated that the four to one vote in the House was a tribute to Major Buckley. chairman of the Ju- diciary Committee which favorably reported on the bill, and that this ac- tion would be taken in the Senate. The vote in the Senate was thirty to‘ five, or six to one and showed con- clusively that the legislature at least believes in the principle back of the bill. The five senators who voted, against the bill were the entire dele- gation from Litchfield County. Sena.- tors Brooks. Rudd and French, one senator from Hartford County. Ben- ator Christoph of the Seventh Dis- trict. and one from New Haven Coun- ty. Senator Arthur F. Ells of Water-, bury. who is a warm personal friend of the Governor. I. member of his staff and who nominated him at the New Haven. convention. Attempts to amend the mill in the Senate failed. It is understood that m. I'I'Jbbard will exercise his option of serving on the State Board of Finance -or on other state boards by resigning from the Board of Trustees of the Con- necticut Agricultural. College and from the Board of Trixie” .of . the Reformatory at Cheshire and will confine his adlvitien in the future to the Board of mm. . There-ls often a Mamet-opin- ioa between executive and the leg- Mature. Go rnor Hdoonbhsd two vetoes oyer-ridden. one a W- t: and the other the witoncfi‘ning week offered, an amendment to a bill concerning the employment of children summers and holidays. granting to the boards of school vis- itors, town school committees and town and district boards of educa- tion the power to grant certificates to children allowing- them to work. The previous law. Wild! was Section 5327 of the General Statutes. allowed that children- -between fourteen and sixteen years of use. in good physical condition. upon application in per- son to the Secretary or Agent'of the ' . State Board of Education for certifi. cate of employment should be grant- ed a certificate permitting the em- ployment of such child during vaca- tions. The leyslative committee on education enlarged this so that this certificate could be granted for work also on Saturdays and out of school hours during the periods when the public schools are in session. Sena- tor Bakewen explained the bill show- ing that the present law worked a. hardship in many cases and stating that the bill merely provided for re- lief. Senator Elis stated that he agreed in principle with the bill. but thought that the powers should go to the communities. rather than be en. tralized in the State Board of Educa- tion. To this Senator Bakewell had no objection and the amendment pro- posed by Senator Ells was passed and In due time will pass the House. This is the indirect result of the speech made by Lieutenant-Governor Hiram Bingham at the McKinleyhanquet in \Vatcrbury. in which he called atten- tion to the fact that the powers were being taken away from the towns and too greatly centralized in the State Board of Education. This is not the result of the work of the present State Board of Education Commis- sioner. Mr. A. B. Meredith. nor of the State Board itself. but is a gradual growth which has been continuing for the past thirty-five years. The present legislature has shown a dis- position to restore the powers to the various communities and follown.g In line with this idea. the present com- mittee on education is proposing a bill creating a commission to codify the school laws and to make sugges- tions for a reorganization of the edu- cation situation in this state. The action of Senator Elis is preliminary to the work which this committee will probably do. The Committee on Public Health and Safety took a step backward to- ward the back ages in proposing by a minority report a bill which so modi- fies the vaCcInation laws in the state that anyone who objects to vaccina- tion need not submit to it. This ac- tion, it passed, will put Connecticut in a very bad position so far as gen- eral health is concerned. Senator \Vilder proposed a bill some time ago which took the matter of vaccina- tion out of the hands of the school authorities and put it. in the hands of the health authorities. where probably it should be. In order that this bill might be considered. the matters of vaccination went back to the Com- mittee on Public Health and Safety where. after more or less careful consideration and an organized ef- fort on the part of the Medical Li- berty League. the Committee on Pub- lic Health mid Safety. by a close vote. decided adversely to put. in a minority report *to- practioslb do away with vaccination in Connecticut. Ilowover the Committee on Public Health and Safety may feel in this matter. it is doubtful if the legisla- ture will follow the recommendation of the minority report. \Vhen the matter previously came up in the House. in an able argument. Major Buckley won a signal victory for the progressive health people who wish the laws left as they are. During the past two years there has been much small-pox in Connecticut and the small-pox has existed in those com- munities where the vaccination laws were not. enforced. It is recalled by legislators who were acquainted with the situation. that there was even a talk of an embargo in a neighboring state. against goods which were man- ufactured in town where the laws had not been enforced and where there was considerable small pox. It is doubtful if, when this fact is brought to the attention of the Senators and Representatives. the practical repeal of the vaccination laws will pre- vail.
