(Continued from Page 1) To view of the excellent connec- tions Leader Charles B. Sullivan and his lieutenants have In Albany, some quarters expressed consider- able surprise that no effort was made to ascertain whether or not the Governor had acted upon the bill before the resolution of censure was voted. Another angle which js causing considerable speculation is this: In the event that the Harby- Bickman suit is successful and the principle of charging back welfare costs to each town on the basis of the actual amount expended in that town is voided , costs would be ap- portioned on the basis of assessed valuation. This would mean that towns like Shelter Island , South- old and Riverhead , which have comparatively few persons on the relief rolls , would be forced to as- sume a substantial share of the re- lief costs of Huntington and other towns where the relief burden is heavy. It would mean more money out of the Edst End taxpayer ' s pocket for refunds to the protest- ing Huntington taxpayers and pos- sibly for future charges as well. The speculation : Will taxpayers of Riverhead , Shelter Island and the other towns which stand to lose if the Huntlngtbn suit is success- ful resent the opposition of Super- visor Homan ' and the other Demo- cratic leaders to a bill Which would have nullified that suit? Incidentally, it was pointed out this week by Welfare Commis- sioner Irving Williams that the method of charging each town just what was spent in that town—no more and no less—Was approvevd in an opinion rendered by Solicitor General Harry D. Epstein when the change from town to county control was voted by the Suffolk Board of Supervisors in October , 193fi. 120 Are Drawn For Jury Duty (Continued from Page 1) The jurors drawn for service in the County Court with Judge L.

Presbyteriatis Elect Radford (Continued from Page 1) of West Virginia and one of the two , the Rev. Otto Bergner of Col- cord , W. Va., was present Tuesday to describe the type of work he and his colleague are doing. The Rev. Bergner will remain in the county two weeks , speaking at the various churches. The current receipts of the 24 churches totaled $75 , 447 and spe- cial recei pts were 117 , 659, the Rev. Mr. Coyle reported. The comparable figures for the previous year were $75 , 307 and $8 , 330. Repotting for ' the committee on united promotion , the Rev. Dr. J. Percival Hiig ' et of Shelter Island , discussed the possibility of bring- ing the new moderator \ ot the Gen- eral Assembly, who is to be elected at Philadelphia in May, to the fall meeting of the Presbytery to be held at Cutehogue. far. Radford announced plans to have a representative of the Board of Christian Education address the fall session on the campaign to be launched next year to raise $10 , 000 , ¦ 000 as an endowment fund for the dual benefit of the 53 colleges at the Presbyterian Church arid the Westminster Fund. Only One Pulpit Vacant The Rev. Mr. Moyer , reporting for the vacancy and supply committee, said that only one church in the Presby tery is without a minister at the present time—that being the East Moriches Presbyterian. The Rev . far. Phillip P. Elliott pastor of the Fi rst Presbyteriar Church of Brooklyn , asked the Presbytery ' s approval of a plan to establish a minimum annual salary of $1 , 500 and rharise for all pastors of churches of the New York Synod Each church which now pays its pastor more than $1 , 500 would con- tribute ah amount equivalent to 2 percent of the excess to a Synodi- cal fund , the money to be used to assist those churches which could not afford to pay their ministers the proposed minimum. Although only one of the 24 Suffol k churche? now pay less than $11500 , it is said that about one-fifth of the churches of the Synod are served by minis- ters who receive less than that amount. The matter was referred to a special committee which is to report at the fall session. Art ' increase in Sunday School membership during the past year was reported by far. Radford Church membership has remained about the same. Auburn Delegates Named Dr. Radford and Or. fidget were appointed to attend the Auburn Planning Conference arid to re- port at an adjourned meeting of the Presbytery to bd held June 14 in the Presbyterian Church at Middle Island. Dr. Radford and Elder W. V. Dury*e , aftd of Matti- tuck , were nameo 1 fraternal dele- nates to the Suffolk ' Association of Congre gational Churches and Min- isters which meets next Wednesday ut Jahiesport. The Pre.Oytnry voted non-con- currence with a proposal to reduce the number of delegates to the General Assembl y. Mrs. F . G. Beetle of Cutehogue representing the Presbyterlal , con - veyed greetings and pledged the full cooperation of tho women of the church . The Rev . Wells H. Fitnh of North- ville, and Nathaniel Talmagc of Raiting Hollow , represented the Association of Congregational Churches and Ministers at the meeting. The ministers , lay dele- gates and guests were entertained at. a luncheon 3erved hy women of the Soiithamotort church of which the Rev. J. N. Armstrong Is pastor German pumpernickel — the so- called \Black Bread\ of the Gor- man and Russian peasant—is a heavy sour-dough mixture made with coarse unbolted rye. Cannabalism among chicks is largely caused by lack of something to do , by over-crowded houses , or by hunger. Lawyers Will Honor Furman The Suffolk County Bar Associa- tion is planning to honor Supreme Court Justice George H. Furman of Patchogue , at a testimonial din- ner at Riverside Inn , Sniithtown some ' time in June. Judge Furman will retire from the bench at the end of this year upon reaching the age limit of seventy, fixed by State law . The association has further de- cided to have a three-quarter size portrait painted of cx-Surrogatc Robert S. Pelletreau , also of Pat- ehogue , who retired the first of this year from the County Surrogate bench because he had reached the age limit. When completed , the painting will be hung in Surrogate ' s Court , Riverhead.

JURY TO RECONVENE The April Grand Jury, Which ad- journed April 11 , will c6hvene again at Riverhead next Monday to pass oh the So-odd criminal cases which District Attorney Fred J. Munder and his assistants will present for action. City Moving To Get Water (Continued from Pago 1) County. The city ' s intent to take over the Jamaica company ' s system was un- folded to W. Kingsland Macy, Re- publican county chairman and pro- ponent of a plan to have a survey made of Suffolk' s water resources as a lasting barrier against en- croachment , by County Attorney Edgar F. Hazleton. J. Russell Spraguc , county execu- tive of Nassau , who is also Repub- lican leader , showed considerable alarm over the situation and con- ferred with Mr. Macy over the tele- phone when it became apparent that the city planned to extend pump ing stations so close to the Nassau County line. Mr. Sprague expressed a desire to work with Mr. Macy in arranging for appearances on behalf of the two counties in opposition to the plan at hearings which it is understood will be pres- ently instituted in New York and possibl y in Albany. Mr. Macy ' s position is somewhat anomalous because of his resigna- tion as chairman of the Suffolk County Water Authority. His in- terest in protecting Suffolk County water , however , dates back many years , and is Such that it is believed that this will in no way interfere with doing everything in his power to press the fight vigorously. City Moving Eastward The revelations made were ample indication that the city was on the move eastward on Long Island in search of water—a situation that was anticipated by Mr. Macy—when the latter took the unusual step of appearing before the board of sup- ervisors as a last resort to obtain a survey of water resources. This action was predicated , as subse- quent statements revealed , upon the board' s unwillingness to approve the funds necessary to proceed un- der the Water Authority Act. In connection with the recent application of New York City to start pumping in Douglaston which was denied by the State Water Power and Control Authority on the grounds that the water resources in Queens County had been depleted , the City has filed in Albany an or- der of certiorari returnable for April 22. In denying the application the Chief Engineer for the State Water Power and Control Authority refer- red to the report of the Commission made to the Legislature in Febru- ary, 1935 and upon interrogation from Judge Hazleton confirmed tne advice he had given New York City to seek its supply of water in Suf- folk County where the report showed a large surplus existed.

VILLAGE TO SET ACADEMY'S FATE All persons interested in Miller Place Academy are requested to meet with the Trustees , at the Academy, at 8 p. m. daylight sav- ing time , on Thursday, April 28 , to discuss the future usefulness of the building to its community. Miller Place Academy was built in 1834 to provide educational op- portunities for the young people of the surrounding country, but with the growth of the public school sys- tem , it was discontinued as a school. The buiidlrig has been used for many years for religious , social ahd political meetings. About thirty years ago , the district schoolhouse haVing fallen into disrepair , the District voted td i-ent the Academy building for the use of the public school , Which has been held there until the recent completion of the new schoolhouse opposite the pond. Since the Academy is ho kmger needed for school purposes , the trustees are considering the future use or disposition of the building. They have invited the public to meet with them on the 28th of this month to see whether there is any sentiment for keeping the building or any useful purpose to which it can be put. Any persons interested yet unable to be present , are asked to send suggestions to Hewlett H. Davis , Secretary of the Academy, Miller Place.
