A bill, introduced in the Senate by Senator George L. Thompson and in the Assembly by myself to permit the construction of the Shel-ter Island bridges under the usual toll bridge plan, passed the Assem-bly promptly, but was held in the Internal Af fa irs Committee of the Senate and thereby killed without reason of consideration on orders of Senator Dunnigan, Democratic Leader of the Senate.

This bill permitted the Board of Supervisors to set up a County Bridge (Commission*' of three mem-

IfteYs,' which could pi'epare plans, raise hloney hy subscription to its bonds and build bridges. Every act of the commission must be approved by the Supervisors. It is spec ifically provided that the bonds is-sued by the Commission shall not be obligations of the State or Coun-ty, but are to be paid off by tolla collected on the Bridges. In all cas-es after the bonds and interest have been paid off by tolls, the bridges revert . to the County and become part of the highway system.

The effect of this bill is to per-mit private capital to build bridges in the County with the approval of the Supervisors, The County has ev-ery prospect of gain and no respon-sibility for loss on these projects. As drawn the bill could apply only to Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Nassau has no interest at the mo-ment either for or against the bill. It is therefore substantially a local measure and with the supporting-resolution of our Board of Super-visors should readily pass both Houses of the Legislature. No rea-son for opposition to this bill was ever stated. Senator Thompson was simply told by Czar Dunnigan that he could not have this bill.

The first opposition tq the bill ap-peared when Democratic County Chairman Sullivan came to Albany and immediately af ter Senator Dun-nigan turned thumbs down on th^ bill. To appease Mr, Sullivan and get the bill through the Senate we consented to an amendment which made the Bridge Commission four members—two from each party to be appointed by the Supervisors on recommendation of the Chairman o f each party in the same manner a s the Commissioners of Election are appointed.

With his f inger in the pie to tho extent of naming half the commis^ sion Sullivan now becomes an advo-cate of the bill and requested Sen-atoit Dunnigan to pass the bill. Ap-parently however other factions in the Democratic Party were not so pleased with the Sullivan amend-ments and in spite of every effort that could be made right up to the close of the session, Dunnigan re-fused to allow the passage of the hill.

As a result of Democratic faction-al quarrels the possibility of build-ing the Shelter Inland bridges in. time for the World's Fair is pract-ically gone,
