MORRISON SAYS BULLOCK'S
, RELEASE IS BLOW TO JUSTICE
Bslablishea Precedent Which Promises
ta Thwart Administration of Jus
" tic in This Country. "
Xaleigh News and Observer, March
4: The release of Matthew Bullock by
the' Canadian authorities establishes
m precedent which promises to hinder ,
and thwart the administration of
justice in this country, declared Gov
ernor Cameron Morrison yesterday;
afternoon after he had dispatched his;
last -word to the State Department !
in Washington protesting against this
nuiMimmimt'a pnnsont to lhe.Cftn&.
" Immunity for Criminals f HV8 Masses Deficiency
Bladen and Sampson Have Agreed
to Build .Highway - Upon Which
Bridge is Conditioned.. '
Outstanding' among " nw constrtic
tion work proposed at a meeting of the
State Highway Commission in Ral
eigh last week, states the News and
Observer, was the project submitted
by Commissioner W. A. McGirt for
a bridge aeross the Cape Fear river
at Elizabethtown, costing ' approxi
mately $200,000, conditioned upon
the construction by Bladen and Samp
son counties of a modern road be
tween the county seats of the two
counties.
From the junction of Haw and the
Deep rivers 200 miles to the sea,
only two bridges span the Cape Fear
one at Lillington and another at
Fayette ville, the, latter fcuilt nearly
a century ago, and rebuilt after a
fire several years ago. The new bridge
will be about half way between Fay
etteville and Wilmington. Bladen and .
Sampson have agreed to build the
hjghway.up.Qnwhich

"Tt simply means," continued the vvasmngton, Marcn 6. without a
Governor, "that a criminal in theirecora vote, tne House today passed
United States can assure himself of
absolute safety if it is possible for
him to evade arrest long enough to
get across the border. The idea that
witnesses should be sent to make out
a case In a Canadian court before ex
traditipn could be allowed is ridic
ulous. There is no law to compel a
witness to make such an appearance.
'And if a witness was interested
enough on his own part to assume
the expense and sacrifice necessary,
I would be inclined to disbelieve his
testimony .
The Governor intimated that his
telegram to Henry P. Fletcher, act
ing Secretary of State, was the lasc
word on the subject. As a matter
of fact the telegram wa. dispatched
a few minutes before Associate J Press
dispatches anounced the release of
Bollock from custody at Hamilton,
Ontario.
and sent to the Senate- a bill appro
priating approximately $108,500,000
to meet deficiencies of various gov-
ernment departments. The largest
item carried on the measure is $94,
000,000 for the Veterans Bureau. ;
A provision which would limit to
$6,300,000 the amount the Navy De
partment would spend for fuel dur
ing the next four months remained
in the bill without provoking discus
sion. One of the few amendments adopt
ed increased the total for the en
forcement of the maternity act dur
ing the remainder of the current
fiscal year from $370,000 to $490,000,
