Yates of New Jersey in New York Love-Nest Causes Political Rumpus on Eve of Gubernatorial Election X - ii • Roy TV at £5 • b||b ; Cranmeß Investigation into the mysterious shooting of State Senator Roy T. Yates, of Naw Jersey, in the New York apartment of Ruth Jayne Cranmer, has resulted in disclosures that may have an important bearing on the coming gubernatorial election. A search into the affairs of Miss Cranmer, who is held in connection with the shooting, revealed that she was on the State payroll, the nature of her labors stated as being with the New Jersey Pension Survey Commission, of which Senator Yates is chairman. It also came to light that Miss Cranmer was tn possession of railroad passes of the type usually issued to State employes. Governor Morgan F. Larson has ordered an inquiry, but it is felt that at this time, when New Jersey is on the eve of electing a new Governor, such an inquiry will only cause embarrassment to the Republican Party, of which Governor Larson and Y ates are members The candidates for gubernatorial honors are David Baird.

Trenton. N. J., —That the bullet] which felled Siate Senator Roy T. 1 Yates of New Jersey in the New 1 York apartment of Rich Jayne tantner had more far-reasing re--ults that the prievous woundin? of | a rising young politician is evidenc- ] d by he furor of political becker-' ing that has followed in its wake. | The sensational disclosures re-1 vealed by the investigation into the ■ cause of the gunplay has rocked the I State of New Jersey to its solid foundations and given the enemies I of Jersey Republicanism a fresh i magazine of ammunition with which ■ to belabor the party of which Yates is a brilliant ornament. A search into the affairs of Miss Cranmer, who is hel l in connection with the shooting, revealed that she I was being carried on the State payroll. the nature of her work stated as being with the New Jersey Pen-, sion Survey Commission, of which Senator Yates is chairman. It also came to light that Miss Cranmer is’ in possession of a tailroad pass, I good on any t oad throughout the i State, of the type us.tally issued to . ertain classes of State employs. These two discoveries were rearded as manna from Heaven by the embattled Democrats of New Jersey. immediately the demand aose so rprobes, quizzes and com-1 missions of inquiry and the fact ! was borrte on observers that thei bullet had only just started its work ’ when it laid the Senator groaning on the floor of Miss Cranmer’s ap-' artment. Os course. Gov. Morgan F. Larson Republican Chief Executive of the l ate, at once ordered an inquiry

Despite all that has been written and shouted from rostrums that a man's private life is his own affair 'the majority of voters demand that the men who make the laws by which they (the voters) must live ! must, like Cacsat’s wife, be above suspicion, more especially if any word or act of the man they elect may prove detrimental to the pockletbook of :he taxpayer. Thus it may be that the indiscretion of Senator Yates will have more far reaching results than a me e sojourn in hospital while the bullet hole which started all lhe j trouble heals. Apart from the political aspect of the affa r, Yates will have *o do ! some explaining to New York auth- ’ o;i:ies regarding his possession of a gun in the Empire State, contrary . to the Sullivan l aw.
