16 SUPREME COURT FOUR TO THREE Justice Frazer Wrote the Opinion Upholding Judge Kunkel Justice Robert S. Frazer, of Pitts burgh. wrote the opinion of theisu preme Court upholding the Gov - ernor's right to make "recess ap pointments" of state officials reject ed by the state Senate. It was con curred in by Justices Mestrezat. Stewart and Waiting. After dispos ing of questions of practice, decid ing that the proceedings had been properly brought in the name of the Commonwealth. Justice Frazer quotes the Constitution and the act creating the banking department, on tne question of tilling the office of commissioner, and theu continues: No Limitations on Governor "It thus appears the Governor is authorized to fill a vacancy tempo rat-ily or until the end of the nex* session of the Senate, but not for a full or unexpired term without the advice and consent of the pen ate. Appellants do not contend that the vacancy in question was one that had not "happened" during the recess of the Senate, though it in fact arose while the Senate 'was in session, but base their argument squarely on the contention that the Governor could not till the vacancy, however or whenever arising, by ap pointing one whom the Senate had previously rejected for the office. "The constitutional provision places no express limitation upon the choice of the Governor in appointing to fill vacancies. He is accordingly the sole judge of the qualifications of the appointee, unless an implied re- , striction is placed upon this power by reason of the grant of power to I the Senate to reject an appointee to j fill a regular or unexpired term. Did the people, in adopting the con- j stitutional provision in question, place an implied limitation upon the ' power of the Governor to fill va- | cancies by reason of also having pro- j vided that appointments for regular i terms of service or for unexpired j terms, should require the approval' of the Senate? "Or. to state the question in ai different form, does it follow that ' the people in requiring the consent of the Senate to appoinments for regular or unexpired terms of serv- i iie intended that a rejection by the j Senate of an appointee necessarily j eliminated him from the list of pos- j stble appointments for filling the j temporary vacancy created by such i rejection without express words to j that effect? If tl.is question be an- j swered in the affirmative, it is per- : t:nent to inquire how long must the' disqualification of the rejected per- ] son continue. It is for the succeed- I ing vacancy only, or does it disqual-1 ify him and consequently limit the j power of the Governor for all ! time?" Justice Frazer then referred ta' provisions in earlier constitutions of! this and other states and quoted' precedents in Loth national and state appointments. He quoted at length from Attorney General Hensel's j opinion on the right of Governor Pattison to appoint Robert Watchorn factory inspector. "That case." the justice said, "is identical in all re spects with the one now before us, and while the opinion of the attor- ; ney general is not binding upon this ' court, his interpretation of the ques- ; tion is strongly persuasive." The court then discussed various, _ eases referred to by the appellants, but decided they did not apply and! in conclusion affirmed the judgment I of the court below. The Dissenting Opinion In the dissenting opinion. Chief Justice Brown, supported by Jus tices Potter and Von Moscliizker. takes the -Istand that such action by the Governor, if legal, would enable , him to defy the direct provisions of of the Constitution and continue men in office regardless of the ap proval of the Senate. He says: "What the Constitution forbids, may not be done, and its inhibitions need not always be expressed for they are equally effective and not less to be regarded when they arise by necessary implication, in constru ing a constitution, its words are to receive their popular, natural and ordinary meaning. When these two propositions are borne in mind there is no escape, it seems to me, from the conclusion that the Governor's appointment of the appellee as commissioner of banking, to serve until the expiration of the next ses sion of the Senate, after he had been rejected by that body at its late session, was in clear, palpable and plain disregard and defiance of Section 8, Article 4. of the Consti tution. The words of that article can have but one meaning to a lay man. and, if this be so. how can a different one be given to them bv the courts, whose duty it is to read them as they are popuiarly, naturally and ordinarily understood? "In so acting the Senate exercised a power expressly conferred upon it by the Constitution as a check upon the appointing power, and -yet im mediately after it had adjourned the Governor, in the face of its rejection of his nominee, appointed him to the office which it had just declared he should not fill. If the Constitu tion may be thus circumvented the executive may do indirectly what that instrument forbids his doing directly, for he can make appoint ments against the advice and con sent of the Senate." Drowning of Chas. Phillips Confirmed by Navy Dept. Camp Hill. Pa., April 4. The t. nited States Bureau of Navigation last evening confirmed the death bv drowning of Charles L. Phillips, of 'amp Hill, a seaman in the servii of the United States Navy.

HXRRISBC7KCITELEGRAPH APRIL 4.1918/' NEWS ITEMS OF THE WEST SHORE LEMOYNE MAN'S NEW WAR CAR Light and Speedy Armored Tractor Approved by the War Department l.eraoynr. April 4. —George 11. Walker, of the Lincoln Hotel, at I*an caster, a resident of this borough for i many years until recently, has pat ented a light, fast and heavily-ar mored tractor or motorcar for use in the war zone. . Me has submitted his plans to'the War Department and has been noti fied of their acceptance. His idea is for a car that is curved on all an gles, which 'would mean effectual protection from machine gun or shrapnel tire. As designed it would carry two guns and be operated by f.ve men. two drivers, two gunners and a man who would operate the turning of the entire body on a ball bearing swivel, which would allow their gun to be trained in any di rection in the twinkling of an eye. There axe many unique features to the car, which are. almost too tech nical to describe, but that there is merit in the idea is advanced by the fact that the War Deparment has seen tit to accept it. It is interest ing to note that Mr. Walker's scheme patented several weeks ago is idcn tically the same as that voiced by ( Henry Ford in articles which ap- < pea led in public print within the j past few days. Mr. Walker is well known in this j borough and in Harrisbui'g business j circles.
