I e Star.] Albany. Tuesday. — Assemblyman Chilton of Brooklyn last night intro- duced In the Legislature a statewide Direct Primary Bill, applying to all party nominations and all elections to party positions. I t i s the same a s t h e Hlnman-Grecne bill of 1910, except for several minor changes mainly in ref- erence to the organization of party committees. This bill, of course, pro- vides for an official primary ballot In the Massachusetts form and for the designation of candidates for party nominations and for party positions, both by the party commlttees-aadrhy petition. O n t h e ballot a preferential position—the first place In each office group—la accorded to the candidate of the party committee for each party nomination; but there is no preferen- tial position accorded, the candidates (or party positions who cannot in fact bo designated by party committees but only by petition. . Regulating County Clerks. Assemblyman Wilson of Ontario last allht Introduced In the Legislature a bill amending the Domestic Relations LAW (Bee. 20), by excepting clerks of counties wholly within the City of New Tork (New Tork, Kings. Queens and RlcSmond) from tho provision re- quiting county clerks during the first twenty days of January, April, July and October of each year, to transmit to the State Department of Health a copy of affidavits, statements, con- sents, licenses. Roeraaniiatiofi of .An important 1)111 Introduced last nPfht ' b y Assemblyman Parker of Washington inserts in the public Ser- vice Commissions .Law three new sec- tions (65a, l>9a and 101a), relative to reorganizations of companies' under the jurisdiction of the Public Service Commissions. It provides that t h e r e - organizations of railroad and street railroad corporations, common car- riers, gas corporations, electrical cor- porations, telegraph and telephone corporations shall be subject t o t h e supervision and control of the proper public service commission. , No such reorganization may be had without the authorization of the commission. Upon any such reorganization the amount of capitalization, Including all Stocks, bonds and other evidences of Indebtedness, shall be such a s i s au- thorized b y t h e commission. The commission shall not, in making its determination a s t o t h e amount of capitalization, exceed the fair value of the property Involved, taking into con- sideration Its original cost of con- struction, duplication cost, present condition, earning' power at reasonable rates, a n d a l l other relevant matters, and any additional sums actually paid in cash. The commission may make due allowance for discount or bonds. Any reorganization agreement, before it becomes effective, must be amended •o that the amount of capitalization •hail conform to the amount author- laed by the commission. This bill is evidently drawn to meet the decision of the Court of AppealB in the Third Avenue Railroad ease, in which It waa held that the commission had no con- trol over the capitalization or reor- ganizations of the corporations Hub. Ject to Its jurisdiction. Tho Annual Appropriation, Assemblyman Whitney, chairman of the Wayo and Means Committee, in. troduced the annual appropriation bill last night. It carries a total of 125,344,562.28, and to this should bo added the canal fund appropriation of $956,462. This is an increase «f $47K,- 111,38 over the appropriation bill lust year. Mr. Whitney explains that this In* crease Is due to increased expenses in- curred under provisions of laws of 1911. Some ol* these are the Conser- vation Commission and State Mrs Marshal laws, the Cold Storage law, Increased indicia I expense due to the election of additional Justices of the Supreme Court in the First and Sec- ond Districts, and increase In 'cost of charitable Institutions due to Increase In population. Included in this bill also* are Items | that In other years have been carried I u, in the supply* bill. The total requests of the several, departments were $27,- 479,477.74, eXclusLvc of the canal fund. The reduction or more than J2,0oo,- 000 was made by cutting out, all pro- posed Increases in salaries and other items. The Ways and Means Com. mlttee believes the tina] amount will not differ greatly from that given in the present bill. Assemblyman Dana and Senator Haxe have Introduced a bill which provides f o r a n amendment t o t he constitution to Kive the Governor the right of appointment and removal of the minor state officers. Harbor Expansion Urged.
