Women Juror Bill Reported Continued from Page City.

Up-State bankers forced this amendment. Bills Passed by Senate Both mortgage, and women juror bills have the Democratic Senate. So have the following measures now on the Lower House calendar: $40,000,000 bond issue for State institutions. Doyle-Neustein bill, or "little Wagner Act," setting up a labor relations board to guarantee collective bargaining to workers in intra-state industry. Kleinfeld bill permitting waiver of jury trial in non-capital criminal cases.

Kleinfeld-Schanzer bill priating $750,000 for initiating work on the Marine Parkway spur, to join Sheepshead Bay, via road and bridge, to Floyd Bennett Field. Dunnigan permitting city license commissioner to revoke license of theater upon complaint of indecent performance, without necessity of conviction. Dunnigan bill, authorizing building of city subway spur into World's Fair grounds, amended to prevent additional fare above nickel. Murray bill authorizing city to remove tenement house violations and assess cost on owners. Dunnigan bill ending State income tax exemption for all State officers with salaries fixed in the Constitution.

The chief item of business before the Senate was concurrence in the Ives resolution, adopted by the Assembly yesterday, creating a committee of five Senators and five semblymen to study the State's tax structure, Governor and recommend, and changes to the Legislature next January. G. O. P. Sees Victory The committee is given $25,000 for expenses.

Republican Assembly leaders seized on the Governor's accession to their demand for such a factfinding body, authorized to attempt to end "patchwork" taxes, as a major victory. But it was one of few real Republican achievements in a session which began with the Republicans battling among themselves over election of a speaker and ended weeks later because of their ultimately futile fight to prevent Lehman from slapping on a fourth cent to the gasoline tax. The Republicans sought to present several substitute taxes, but they couldn't agree among themselves. But while the Republicans yielded to the Governor finally on the gasoline tax, they forced him to increase his budget to the all-time record total of $100.000.000 over last year's by appropriating $24.000,000 for relief for the Jan. 1, to June 30, 1938, period.

And they compelled the Governor to levy a new tax, a 2 percent levy on gross receipts of utilities, to meet this added relief obligation. But the Governor's record of achievement was none too rosy either. After he turned on the party heat and the Democratic Senate passed the Federal child labor amendment, his Democratic Assemblymen yielded to pressure from home and defeated the amendment. And Governor failed to get four of the 74 Democratic Assemblymen to vote for his gas tax, six Republican votes were needed to pass it. Joseph A.
