would permit the- Philadelphia Itapld

(Jermnntown. Independent, scored th
political activity of Judge Hrown. wh
k" W fluent visitor to the Cnol
tol during the session and wna here
today.
"Wide criticism linn been aroused In
Philadelphia concerning the political
activity of the president judge." said
Mr. ICdmonds.
"In that I ngree. It U his duty to
divorce himself from poll t lex,"
"The crltlciHin becomes stronger as
the costs of the court Increase nnd
center In one man. The costs of man
damuses Issued ana lined In building up
the administration, of the court add to
the expense.
People May Iose Kalfli
"If this piling up of the costs of this
court continues; if it continues to cen
ter in one mnn, and If that iiuin con
tinues to remain netlve in factional
liolltlcH, the faith of the people In the
rourts will he greatl undermined."
The constant ntteudnnce of Judge
llrown in thr Capitol to lobby was at
tacked by Ttepresentative Isaac Ii. S.
Smlnk, nnother supporter of the Mayor.
Senator Unix Introduced the bill to
permit the election of another judge of
re ( f
lionulntlon of Philadel
phia and. opponents of the measure de
clare, to open tho way for increasing
the Fnlnry of the existing judges.
When the bill came up for second
reading in the House, ttepreseutntlvs
Harry Trainer offered a motion to post-
folic, which would have delayed action,
tepresentntlve Hcnjamin It. Colder ob
jected to the postponement. On the vote
the Mayor's supporters were voted
down.
Representative Smink then offered
amendments to take the authority of
appointing the president judge from the
Cnveronnr and lodge It with a board of
judges of the court, which would be
created by the amendment.
The amendments also would make
work on the part of the president judge
compuhory bv requiring him to tnke a
regular turn with other judges sitting
in court.
Varc men fairly leaped to their feet
to attack tiie Smink amendments and
after u bitter debate succeeded in hnv
Ing them defeated by a vote of 122
against to 41 for.
Colder characterised the amendments
as "peanut politics" nnd "a blow at
the president judge."
Senator Dais sat beside Colder dur
ing the debate.
Colder branded the nffulr as a
"sniping" contest nnd usked who
would want to take the appointive
power away from the Oovernor.
Hmink retorted that the court was
"a thorn in tho side of Philadelphia."
and referred to relieving the Covcrnor
of "an obnoxious duty." Ilr said thr
court cost $1,000,000 and his amend
ments would give the city "the vnluc
of Its money."
Colder declared he did not "care if
it cost .?1.000.000 or $.'.000,000, and
there could be no nobler work than
uniting families, which tho court does,
without criticism, except from political
opponents."

REVISION MEASURE
GOES TO GOVERNOR
fly n Stat Correspondent
Ilaj-rlsburR, April 20. The Crow bill,
providing for a vote of the people ou
whether a stnte constitutional revision
convention shall be held, passed the
House last nleht. It had already passed
tho Hennte. nnd goes now to Governor
Hproul, who will sign it because it is an
udmiiiistrat'.m bill.
It provides for votine on the rpicMim!
and alo on candidates for delegates, at
tho prlmarj- net September IM) .
There was weak opposition to the
measure, nnd the only attack made upon
it came, fiom Representative W. 0.
Alexander, Delaware countj-, who has
been making a weak fight ngainst the
administration throughout the session.
Oniv twenty-six representatives voted
against the bill and HI in its favor.
Representative Harry .1. Trainer,
Philadelphia, raised a point of order
when the bill was reached on the cal
endar under the head of "appropria
tion bills on final passage," Ihat the
measure was not nn appropriation bill
in the same sense an were other ap
propriation measures: on the calendar
and could not be considered at this
time. His point waH overruled bj
.Speaker Hpangler.
Alexander, in a cbaructeristii .out
burst, said the neoplc would defeat
the plan for a reilsion of the constitu
tion when they go to the polls. He said
if the Legislature defeated it the stale
would save (285,000, the amount ap
propriated by the bill to tarn into
effect its provisions. The present ton
xtltiitlnn, he Insisted, wan good enough
for him.
Representative .lamei, A. Walker, of
West Philadelphia, recited brlctlj new
conditions that have been brought
about hlnce 187-1 which necessitates
complete revision. Auiqng those con
ditions he referred to the enfranchise
ment of women and the part they wl'l
have in the future affairs of the state.

FARMERS TAKE RATE
FIGHT TO HARDING
.Washington. April liO. I I'.j A. P.)
Knrmcrs from all jiurts of the I'nlted
Htntes meeting here today under the
iiiiipleo of the Xatiouul Fiiriners'
Union decided to tnke their light for a
! reduction In freight iiitci direct to Pres
ident Harding.
Tills decision was i cached after
spokesmen for the formers hud, con
ferred with members of the interstate
Commerce Commission to urge lower
iate. The delegates apparently were
disatilied with tlic outcome of this con
ference. .'ICI
.Members of the union, beaded by Na
mission tj'iit besides reducing the loss
now sustained by tlic farmers lu the
sale of their crops, a lowering of freight
latcs would lie a big psjidmlogical fac
tor In starting the mnrketing of farm
products mid n general price reduction
In other lines.
L'unblc to murkct their own products,
the fiirmcrs. the spokesmen said, are
virtually on n buyers' strike, ns there is
no prospect of conditions improving in
time- to bring better prices for next
J cur's crops.
Commissioner McCbord declared r.iil
loads bad lost abinit $3,1100.1)1)0 in op
eration during the lut enr. ".Mmicj.
Inlmr and equipment urc nil ubnoriuullj
high," said he.
Mr. Davis said if dccreues in freight
tatcs would not increiisc the wiluino of
business to the railroads sufficiently to
make a prolit for them the farmers
would rather paj the rnilroml dcheit In
the form of taxes than bear the entire
burden of high freight rutcs.
President .MuoSparriin, of the Pciin
