(Special to The Eagle.) Garden City, L.

March 24 The Nassau County Charter Commission devoted the entire evening last night passing on various phazes of the proposed charter, which were whipped into shape by William 8. pettlt, chairman of the commission, who recently returned from Albany. where he had been in consultation with the drafting committee. It can be definitely stated that the charier will go forth for a referendum vote tnis year, protest or not. In tho words of Chairman Pettit tha commission has worked for 1J months and it will submit the char ter for referendum.

"If the voters aon't want it they can vote It down ana anorner commission can be ap pointed." Mr. Pettit. however, ex prossed his certainty that the people do want the charter, statins- that most of the people heard at the two puouc neanngs were objectors. Discussion followed a motion made by Edward .1. Deasy of Olen Cove that the charter be withdrawn from the Legislature on behalf of the commission.

Mr. Deasy is a memoer or tne commission, but it developed that he had attended only two meetings of the commission. George L. Hubbell of Garden Citv. in whose office the meeting last night was held, stated that he had never seen him at a previous meeting.

When Deasy made his motion to have the commission withdraw the charter he had expected that at least two other members would stand by him, but no one could be found ready to second it and It got no farther. The commission had been discuss ing various changes until 10:30 when Mr. Deasy asked the chairman what was the status of the charter at present Mr. Pettit said it had been introduced but not advanced. When the amendments are presented be hopes it will reach the second reading, but not until criticism has been made ot the present amendments.

"Well, I feel, and evarv one to whom I speak in Glen Cove feels. that we are using undue haste," said Mr. ueasy. -'rcopie reel tney have not had a chance to read and dla-est the charter. They feel it should not be advanced and passed in this Legislature." He th6n made his motion.

Chairman Pettit explained that the charter can be amended from year to year. Indeed, he pointed out that the commission can recom. mend them, and that the voters can have from May to November to study the charter and then vote on it. Deasy: "I don't think it will get ten votes In Glen Cove, as the charter is at present." DELAY BY CITY ON JAMAICA LIBRARY SITE BOOSTS PRICE Boro President Connolly yesterday submitted to the Board of Estimate a communication from the at-torney of the Slaking Realty Company, stating that tho expense of condemning the property at Herri-man ave. and Grove Jamaica, selected os the site for branch of the Queons Boro Public Library would probably cost twice the amount of $85,000 appropriated for Its acquisition.
