Judiciary Reorganization Aims At State Level Reforms
A committee named by Attorney General Grey advances a broad plan to reorganize New Jersey courts. It proposes reducing the court of errors from sixteen to a chief justice and four associate justices and reshaping the supreme court into three divisions. Circuit courts would operate statewide with justices drawing jurisdiction, writs of error would route to the court of errors and appeals, and vice chancellors could issue decrees. The governor chancellor and attorney general would form the court of pardons. The group lists judges J Franklin Fort, David O. Watkins, H Slantekson, Robert S. Woodruff, James J. Bergen, Alan Strong, Joseph Cross, Abraham Q. Garretson, and Eugene Stevenson.

Chancellor McGill Ill Again Prostrated by Overwork
Chancellor McGill of Jersey City suffers another collapse from overwork at his home on 270 Burrow street as physicians warned last November of a second breakdown. He briefly obeyed orders but in January resumed reading reports and testimony at home to hasten decrees. He did not attend court, but the strain proved more than he could bear. Doctors prescribe absolute rest and suggest repeating last summer’s European trip, though he has not decided on it.

Laughter Swayed the Dignified Senate in Porto Rican Debate
Washington March 31 Merriment swept the traditional dignity of the senate yesterday as staid members laughed aloud and galleries joined in the uproar. Senator Pettus of Alabama delivered a witty, unmelodious speech while maintaining a funeral like solemnity. Representative Proctor of Vermont urged free trade with Porto Rico, drawing congratulations from foes. Pettus’ jocular remarks on Gallinger and Beveridge stood out as one of the chamber’s best examples of senatorial humor. House members focused on war claims and the Manila cable bill was shelved amid other measures and claims.
