A. in Jersey, but the job did have its limitations . . . for one thing, he had to quit the Democratic state committee because of the Hatch law, whereas the prosecutorship will enable him to return to the driver’s seat . . . as district attorney he had to spend a lot of time outside the county . . . the Parker case alone kept him going day and night for weeks, which is one reason why the law firm of Quinn, Parsons and Doremus was dissolved . . . as prosecutor Quinn will remain in the limelight . . . always a square shooter with working newspapermen, even when he had a bad press, Quinn and Judge Jacob Steinbach were the only courthouse team to receive a testimonial when their terms ended back in 1930 . . . both got a great kick out of a crude show staged by the reporters, which depicted the Whittle and Gillespie cases in which the two played prominent parts. . . .

What becomes of exhibit buildings when a World’s Fair is over? Several enterprising business men had an answer in 1876 when the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition closed. They

WPA writers discovered this novel scheme while gathering material for a volume on the history of Belmar..
In 1876 two Philadelphians, Thomas Kennedy and David Wilson, became interested in setting up summer hotels and privately-owned cottages at Ocean Beach, which later became Belmar. They bought the shorefront from Twelfth avenue to Three Cornered pond, now Lake Como, and negotiated for some of the dismantled exposition buildings in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia.
Mr. Kennedy bought Machinery hall, which had housed a mammoth Corliss engine, set in motion on the opening day by President Grant and Don

the northwest corner of Thirteenth avenue and the ocean. For years it displayed the state’s coat of arms above the main entrance. The fair’s glass exhibit became Crystal Cottage, at Fourteenth and Ocean avenues. Machinery hall was remodeled into the three-story Atlantic hotel, a two-wing structure that filled the oceanfront block between Fifteenth and Sixteenth avenues.
By joining the Colorado and Kansas buildings, the pretentious 100-room Colorado hotel was created, adjoining the Atlantic. This hotel was raised eight feet from the street on a solid brick foundation to allow for bathhouse facilities underneath.
Other innovations of the Colorado were unique octagonal porches jutting out over the lawn and a lofty observa-

He also purchased the Crystal 1building, where the latest styles in pressed glass dishes and French mirrors had been shown. Mr. Wilson obtained the Delaware building and, together with Mr. Kennedy, bought up the Colorado and Kansas state buildings.'
Taking the Philadelphians’ lead, Henry H. Yard, of Trenton, bought the Spanish building and shipped it to Ocean Beach, while a.man named Eil- ber re-assembled the Bankers’ pavilion, at the new resort.

Eilber’s Bankers’ pavilion, accommodating 35 persons, was on the north side of Sixth avenue, operated by W. S. B. Shields. Mr. Yard set up his Spanish building on Fifth avenue, and rented it to A. A. Tatem who ran it as the Brunswick, a 40-room hotel.
The building boom incident is one of the many interesting historical facts the WPA writers have gathered from
The Belmar commission Tuesday contracted to print 500 copies of a municipal guide for not more than $300 as-, the sponsors’ share of a Historical Records project through WPA.
Russell Swayze, WPA representative, said the work would include a historical sketch of the borough, a listing of municipal officials and their duties and an index of all borough records. It will be more factual than the history of Belmar which is now being written by a federal wriers’ project and the workers will arrange and label the borough’s records if necessary, he said.
Mayor Leon T. Abbott said it would be advantageous to provide the work for four or five persons in Belmar between this time and June, when the project is to be completed. The sponsor prints 500 copies of the record, 200 o f which can be distributed locally and 300 of which the federal government uses for reference and survey material. It is under the supervision of the State Planning Board.
Commission George G. Titus said indexing had been taken care of by Dr. Fred ;V. Thompson and Major William Bamford up to about four years ago.

Colored motion pictures of the international tuna tournament at Cat Cay in the Bimini islands last year were shown Wednesday to members of the Belmar Kiwanis club by Dr. L. F. Albright of Spring Lake, who attended the event.
The pictures gave members a thrill because of the excellent photography which depicted the hooking of giant tuna and showed in detail the sport cruisers and tackle used to land the fish. Part of the films taken by Dr. Albright were later used by Grant- land Rice in one of his many motion picture shorts on fishing.
Visiting Kiwanians included Mayor Frank Borden of Bradley Beach and Committeeman Leroy Garrabrandt of Neptune. Luis Zawadsky of Fifth avenue, Belmar, publisher of the newspaper Realtor in Cali, Colombia, was also a guest.

W ALL T A X RATE TO DROP $3.40,
BUDGETREVEALS1940 Levy Estimated at
$55.50 Per $1,000. Chapman Credits
Cooperation.The estimated tax rate for W all'
township will be $55.50 per $1,000 or a - drop of $3.40 from the $58.90 at which, it stiod in 1939, it was revealed Wednesday night when the committee passed the budget on first reading at a special meeting.
In 1938 the tax rate was $6fi.30- These reductions, declared Chairman Alfred C. Chapman, are the result o f the cooperation of the taxpayers and! the conservative policies of the com*- mittee. Mentioning that provision has; been made to finance foreclosures, Mr- Chapman commented that the collection of tax liens ranked with relief as a major problem. He said a humane relief program would be continued “while safeguarding the public funds, to the greatest extent”.
“Provisions have also been made fo r continuing the road building program with state aid and a sufficient amount has been included for our own road building program,” added the chairman. The amount allotted for state aid roads jumped from $2,246.49 last year to $8,500 in 1940, the budget pub- listed in full on page 5, this paper- shows.
The amount to be raised by taxation drops from $146,536.62 to $140,947.30 this year, the budget shows as well as a drop of $100 in fire protection and. an increase of $425 in police funds. There is also an increase of $300 in the health and charities account.
The budget will be considered for- adoption Feb. 28 at 8:30 p. m. when objections may be presented to the committee.

K flr u r L u m itu mBY THE MAYOR OF BELMAR
THE BOY SCOUTS OF A M E R IC A , incorporated February 8, 1910, and chartered by Congress June 15, 1916, is celebrating its anniversary from February 8 to 14, during Boy Scout Week. In the past three decades the nearly nine million former or present members have rendered notable service to our community and our nation. In times of distress from floods, hilrricane, tornado and other disasters they have demonstrated the effectiveness of organized boy service. During the period of economic stress they contributed in many ways to the relief of suffering, and they have rendered noteworthy service in flood areas.
The Scouts have also contributed to a deeper appreciation by the American people of the higher conception of good citizenship.
THEREFORE, I, LEON T. ABBOTT, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF BELMAR, do hereby recommend that the citizens of this City do whatever they can to observe Boy Scout Week and give their support in strengthening the work of the Boy Scouts of America, particularly through the Monmouth Council which administers the Boy Scout Program in this Community.
I earnestly recommend that our civic organizations, our churches and our schools cooperate in carrying out a program for a definite recognition of the effective service rendered by the Boy Scouts of America, in order that the work of the Boy Scout Program may be extended to a larger proportion of the boyhood of this Community.
The Boy Scout movement offers unusual opportunity for volunteer service. It needs men to serve in various capacities as leaders of boys. I hope that all who can, will, through the organizations with which they are connected, enlist for such personal service. Anything that is done to increase the effectiveness of the Boy Scouts of America will be a genuine contribution to the welfare of this Community, the State, and the Nation.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of this Community to be affixed.
Done this first day of February, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and forty.Attest
LEON T. ABBOTT, Mayor.J. A. JOECK, Borough Clerk.

Barbour Says Loan To Finns Assured
Congress Will Approve of Aid, New Jersey
Senator Says.By W. W ARREN BARBOUR,
WASHINGTON •— This country is sound. It is devoted to freedom and democracy now as always, and those who bore from within, in the hope of undermining the government or our belief in the democratic principle, only destroy themselves.
Earl Russell Browder, the American-born Communist party leader in the United States, whose orders come from Moscow, is the latest person to discover this. His conviction for passport frauds is wholesome. I hope he is required to serve the limit of his sentence.
I am glad, too, that the House has voted to continue the Dies investigation. All committees of this nature are performing a worthwhile public service in the interests of democracy. We may not approve of all of the methods and policies of the Dies committee, but we may be sure at least that they are performing a patriotic service in throwing light on some of the subterranean processes by which the country’s enemies are attempting to injure it.
* * *
There is every indication as this is written that Congress will approve a loan to Finland, as it should. Finland and the United States are friends. Also the courageous and heroic’ people of this small northern republic have met their obligations to this country to the last cent, thus earning the right to come to us now wih a request for further financial aid.
Only one possible objection could be made to such a loan, based on the fear that it might tend to draw us into the circle of Europe’s wars. Although I will go as far as any man or woman in New Jersey or anywhere else in insisting that the United States keep out of other people’s wars, I do not think this objection sound.
We’re not going to war in Europe. We’ve learned that lesson well enough, I think, not to risk a repetition of what we went through in 1917-18, and have been going through since then as a consequence of our participation in the first world war.
Moreover, we certainly have nothing to fear from Russia as a consequence of any assistance we may give to Finland. If the Russian bear can’t make any better showing than it has against little Finland, what chance would it have against any first-class or even second-class power? The Soviet army has become the laughing stock of the world. In fact the whole Soviet system, built as it is on a foundation of terrorism and bluff, is being shown up in the present war for what it is—a false front. You can’t build an army by shooting your generals, and you can’t build a powerful nation by enslaving its people in the name of a freedom which they actually do not enjoy and have never known.

while intoxicated and were caught, paid the staggering sum of approximately a quarter of a million dollars cash on the line for their folly last year.
This was the amount, Motor Vehicle Commissioner Arthur W. Magee reports, that 1,256 drivers convicted of the offense, were assessed in fines. A few of them went to jail as well.
“A rather expensive habit” is how Commissioner Magee describes it, add ing that in addition to the minimum mandatory $200 fine imposed in each case, the penalty also included the revocation of driving privileges for two years. The latter penalty, espe- cial'y where it interferes with the earning power of a driver, can be far more costly than the $200 fine, the commissioner declares.
Admitting that there were many more motorists who drank and drove than the 1,256 who were convicted last year simply because they were lucky enough to avoid detection, the commissioner warns that sooner or later their “luck” will break.
“The sensible thing to do is stop right now before there is an accident that the odor of alcohol will make doubly difficult to explain,” he adds. “Driving an automobile on today’s crowded highways requires full and complete use of mental faculties, undulled by alcohol or drags in any form.”
In his report of license revocations for the year, Commissioner Magee states that 4,980 lost their operating privilege for various infractions. A partial two year comparison .according to violations is as follows:
Reckless driving ............... 413Speeding ......................... 412Fatal accidents ...........Habitual violators ............ 478Failure to appear .......Leaving scene of accident .. 61Permanent revocations, bar
records ......................Failure to report change of
address ................. .....

WAR RELIEF COST HIGHThe cost of American Red Cross
war relief operations in Europe has neared the million-dollar mark, it was announced by National Chairman H. Davis. Red Cross chapters throughout the country have completed plans to produce an additional million surgical dressings and a quarter-million more articles of refugee clothing. Relief operations are being principally concentrated in Finland, German-occupied Poland and in countries harboring refugees. Mercy ships have been successfully passing the blockade with their supplies. Clothing for 10,- 000 persons is being cleared at New York along with large quanties of surgical dressings destined for Finland, Red Cross officials said. In addition, 266,000 sulfrapyridine tablets for pneumonia cases, and a shipment of ten field ambulances and 25 hospital tents to hold 50 beds each have recently left New York.

Dr. Gordon Talks On Mental Ills
"Public Enemy No. I" Is Explained by Marlboro
Psychiatrist.The work of the staff of the Marl
boro state hospital and the selection of its patients was the topic brought before the meeting of the philanthropic department of the Belmar Woman’s club by the superintendent of the institution, Dr. J. Berkeley Gordon. The speaker explained to the clubwomen that the New Jersey hospital is of the same type as the Bellevue hospital in New York.
Dementia praecox, which is termed*! “Public Enemy No. 1” , was discussed at great length by the psyschiatrist who also stated that it is the worst mental disease of all. Dr. Gorden explained that this disease is developed from two characteristics of parents and past ancestors, namely, development potential, which is received from parents and circumstances. As the final climax of a person suffering from this disease the affected person has “built himself in an ‘unreal world’ and has made dreams his castles” . At this point, continued the doctor, the patient does not exist in the “real world” but believes himself to be a part of an “unreal” world which, in reality, is very real to him. During this stage of the disease, he continued, the patient will carry on conversation with these imaginary people.
This disease is the worse of all mental ones, stated Dr.Gordon, because the person afflicted has brought himself to believe that he is a failure in life, having suffered many bitter and sad disappointments. This may be traced to undesirable parents, poor home surroundings, lack of education and schooling, not being successful in becoming the popular member of the high school, the captain of the football team, the high honor student, and

then on later in life to being disappointed in love and not being a success in business. With all of these, combined with many more serious ones, the
| patient has “cast himself away from the world to begin his existence in the unreal world.”
Dr. Gordon explained the way the patients are treated and the use of insulin shock as the most modern and accepted method in the treating of mentally ill people. He stated photographs are taken upon admittance of the patient and on leaving the hospital. They are also finger-printed for identification purposes. Re-education is carried on extensively.
Questions were submitted by the clubwomen. Substituting for the department chairman, Mrs. Herbert Hab- erstick, who was absent, Mrs. Carl F. Schongar introduced the guest speaker.

L E T T E R S To The Editor
West Belmar School,January 25, 1940.
Coast Advertiser,Belmar, N. J. ,
My dear Mr. Tighe:The members of the eighth grade
wish to express their thanks and appreciation for the kindness extended to our group when we visited your plant last Friday.
We greatly enjoyed the visit. The explanations regarding the necessary operations in the printing of a newspaper proved most interesting.
Very truly yours,MAY APPLEGATE,
Asst. Secretary, Class of 1940.
WANT COURT'CONTESTEditor, Coast Advertiser:—Would you be able to send me any
information on amateur basketball teams in your section?
The Beachwood A. C. is playing their first year of basketball and are very anxious to play a full season. We have a club house where we can play home games and therefore could arrange games on a home-and-home basis.
For comparative strength, my boys have been out of high school about three years.
I would appreciate if you would contact managers or send me the names of these managers or teams to whom I may apply for games.
Thanking you for any courtesy you may extend to me, I remain,
Very truly yours,PHILIP J. FAHS.
Beachwood, New Jersey.
Editor, The Coast Advertiser. Sir: Through this committee I wish to call your attention to the fact that twice this month, Feb. 12 and Feb. 22, the United States will observe the birth of great Americans. Both were presidents. One created the United States of America, the other carried the U. S. through the most difficult crisis. Abraham Lincoln was bom Feb. 12, 1809 in Kentucky. George Washington was born in Virginia Feb. 22, 1732.
To carry on the spirit of achievement of these two great Americans this committee is endeavoring a literature campaign. Carried on for several months nationally it could produce a national harmony and solidarity that would make America secure and invincible in a world gone mad with strife and violence, greed and brutality.
In the endeavor to raise funds for the functions of this work the Americanism committee has arranged for a “Patriotic Card Party” to be held at Community Center the evening of Feb. 21 to commemorate the birth of the “Father of Our Country”. Prizes and ticket sale will be announced at a later date.
WILLIAM KOERBEL, Chairman, Americanism Committee,
Herbert-Worthington-White Post, American Legion.

ON THE J O B . . . .. .T lE R H A P S it may be wishful thinking, but the resolution o IT Belmar American Legion asking the county to consider Belmar as a site for the proposed county vocational school is one whic merits support. Needless to say, other towns would welcome such an institution, if and when it is decided that a vocational schoo is needed. By taking positive action at this time the Legion shows that it is awake to the advantages Belmar can offer m the event ashore site is decided upon.
-------------- o—-------------
SOUTH BELMAR CUTS ITS RATE . . .W ITH a decrease of $1,500 in the school budget, and a like
amount in the municipal budget, South Belmar taxpayers should enjoy a substantial reduction in their rate this year, since the county has also announced a decline in its levy.
Coming at a time when nearly a score of other towns are faced with sharp increases because of mounting tax delinquencies this is good news to those who have watched the gradual development of the borough with interest. It is also encouraging to the 70 percent of the taxpayers who paid their assessments last year, for under existing state laws, which are sound in theory but hardly fair in practice, the budgets are governed largely by the percentage of tax collections.
--------------o—------------ -
"JERSEY RULES THE NAVY" . . .A O R IT A N N IA rules the waves,” has been the slogan of seafarers
1 ) for many generations, but here in the United States can be added the truthful “ New Jersey rules the Navy.” The state felt a bit proud when President Roosevelt named Charles A . Edison as Secretary of the Navy, thereby giving New Jersey its first cabinet member since the late Lindley Garrison served in the same post under Woodrow Wilson. Now another of her sons is named to an exalted post, this time Lewis Compton, who becomes assistant secretary of the navy under his old boss, Mr. Edison.
Mr. Garrison was a summer resident of Sea Bright while he served in the cabinet. Mr. Compton is a summer resident of Sea Bright, too. Thus the New Deal gives partial recognition to Monmouth county.
There are those who are cynical enough to say that Mr. Roosevelt is merely making it easier for Mr. Edison to become governor in New Jersey. Be that as it may, Republicans and Democrats alike can join hands in applauding the appointments, for all of us take a bit of pride in the fact that at long last New Jersey is recognized in the cabinet of the New Deal.
--------------o---------------
"PETE" ...-r > E E F cattle breeding has been recommended to farmers in Cen-
O tral Jersey by state farm experts who have watched with apprehension the steady decline in prices obtained for potatoes, acknowledged as the staple crop of this part of Jersey. Now comes the news that Louis Dye of Dayton, who won the first 4-H baby beef show staged in connection with Agricultural week at Tien-i
ton, made a net profit of $362.30 on “ Pete,” an animal which cost him a total of $140, including the purchase price.
It seems “ Pete” was such an outstanding animal that his l,00o pounds brought 46 cents a pound when auctioned olf to the Stacy Trent hotel, though the market price for beef on the hoof was only 14 cents. There were other prize entries, too, the second place winner going for 32 cents and third place winner, “ Ferdinand,” bringing 25 cents a pound.
Perhaps those dirt farmers who toil in the hot summer lays .and nurse a potato crop, only to find their hopes shattered by countless marketing and weather factors over which they have no control, will take heart. If 15-year-old Louis Dye can get 46 cents a pound for “ Pete” surely there must be something to this business of raising beef cattle.
THE MECHANICS OF A CAMPAIGN . . .THE longer Harold Hoffman delays the announcement of his
candidacy for governor the greater his chance of securing the nomination in the May primary.
This seems to be the strategy now being employed by the Hoffman managers, as indicated by Hoffman’s threat to become a candidate if “ Hague-Hoffmanism” is made an issue. No one seriously doubts that Hoffman will be a candidate, and it won’t require a “ Hague-Hoffman” issue to make him a candidate.
The Hoffman strategists have considered the practical side of politics, however. Non-partisan organizations will withdraw their invitations to have the former governor address them when he becomes a candidate, for fear his appearance will leave them open to the charge of politics. Certainly a candidate can gain more votes by addressing non-partisan groups than by appearing before political clubs which are pledged in advance of elections.
There is also the question of money. When a man formally becomes a candidate he’s fair game for one and all. Any one who has sought office requiring state-wide campaigning knows full well how quickly the smart money boys gather, like clans of old, And devolve their sly plans for relieving the candidate and his
- ' Supporters of their funds in devious ways, often painless but nevertheless costly. By delaying his announcement, a candidate
^shortens the “open season” and thereby adds weight to his own csttffJaig’iR for if he is smart enough to save his own money it stands to reason he should be able to save the taxpayers money.
Pre-election jockeying by a candidate can confuse his oppon-

By JOSEPH GRIBB1NS
TRENTON—Conscientious members of the State Senate and Hous| of Assembly, tired of the dilatory tactics of legislative leaders ’in delating action on major problems, successfully conducted a “get down to business” campaign this week with the result that future sessions of the legislature may produce some worthwhile laws.
For the past month the lawmakers traveled to the State House anxious to accomplish good in a legislative way, but were blocked by the lack of a definite program. As the result, both houses merely went through the motions of being busy, ignoring the main problems affecting racing, railroads and relief, and accomplished nothing. Now, however, leaders claim busy sessions are ahead.
Several members threatened to stay home in the future unless some definite legislative program is Worked out to be closely followed in a businesslike fashion. As a result, the first joint conference of the year will be held tomorrow afternoon between Senate and House leaders in an attempt to reach agreement not only on the three R ’s—racing, railroads and relief, but election reform legislation as well.

tuel betting in the state, will serve 24 hours notice on the unfriendly judiciary committee to release the measure for a vote. Haneman claims 35 votes for the measure, four more than necessary for passage. Present plans call for pushing the bill through by February 12 so that legalized horse racing may be conducted next fall.
Likewise, Assemblyman Lester E. Mahr, of Essex, will press passage of a series of election reform bills which would require voting by election machines in North Jersey counties and make other changes in present election laws. Where the Haneman horse race bill is expected to pass the Senate, however, these bills are scheduled to encounter opposition. Action on railroad tax and relief legislation will be postponed until horse racing becomes legal through enactment of proper laws.
—o o o—S1ATE POLICE:—
When a trooper gets you for violating a motor vehicle law, the chances of escaping are mighty slim. Superintendent of State Police Mark O. Kimberling reports that 27,794 motor vehicle arrests were made by troopers last year and when the cases were tried only 549 resulted in dismissals. Of the law violators 14,029 were speeders and 6,147 careless drivers and the balance comprised various other offenders.
—o o o—JOB INSURANCE:—
Unemployed workers in New Jersey last year received payments aggregating $14,910,745.23 from the state unemployment compensation commission, far under original estimates that thir-
ent. In the present instance the Vanderbilt-Clean Government choice, Senator Hendrickson, isn’t certain that Hoffman will run. He’s merely threatened to be a candidate. Until Hoffman actua y files his petition Hendrickson ■ can’t start his campaign, and any man who is intent on beating Hoffman certainly needs all the time he can possibly get to overcome the obvious popularity of the former governor in certain parts of the state.
Up to now it looks like Hoffman has played his cards well. Just how smart the Hendrickson machine is no one can tell because it hasn’t had a chance to get going.
WHAT PRICE NEUTRALITY? . . .GROVER W H A L E N , returning to America after a toui oi
Europe in behalf of the 1940 World’s fair, emphasizes the cost the present war is imposing on neutral nations. From this distance most of us are inclined to think only of the belligerents, and the sacrifices they must make because of the c°nflict. Yet little Switzerland, Mr. Whalen reports, is losing $1,000,000 daily because of the war. Its hotel and resort business has been wiped out, and on top of that the country must meet the heavy cost of guarding its frontiers. Belgium, the Netherlands and other smallcontinental nations are likewise affected.
South America seems far removed from the battle scene, yet in dollars and cents it might as well be in the trenches Its exports to Germany have been cut off because of the British blockade, and the British and French have curtailed their purchases because they cannot permit their own currencies to leave the country except for war necessities Which they cannot obtain at home.
This year American farmers will feel the loss of exports to countries either at war or faced with the necessity of economizing because they fear war will engulf them. Neutrality is a blessing, to Be sure, but t i r o a n economic viewpoint when war strikes neutrality becomes a myth.
ty to forty millions of dollars would be paid from the fund during 1939. At the end of the year the U. C. C. trust fund still contained $98,967,074.39.
The commission and executive director, Harold G. Hoffman, recommended that some of this excess be absorbed by increasing the maximum $15 a week payment; extending the present 16 week limit on such payments, and broadening the coverage which at present includes employers of eight or more persons.
—o o o—CONVENTION DELEGATES:—
Including representatives of both the Harold G. Hoffman and Arthur T. Vanderbilt “Clean Government” factions of the Republican party, a nine- member sub-committee appointed by the state Republican committee is at work on the job of selecting candidates for deelgates-at-large and alternates to the Republican national convention.
Both Hoffman and Vanderbilt have agreed to support convention delegates pledged to urge New York District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey for the Republican presidential nomination at the convention. Named as chairman of the sub-committee, however, was Daniel E. Pomeroy of Englewood, member of the National Republican committee, who favor's an uninstructed delegation to the national convention.
—o o o—RAIL TAX:—
Railroads which have been fighting against alleged unfair and discriminatory taxes levied in New Jersey since 1932 are appealing to the state board of tax appeals to reduce 1939 property valuations totaling $376,000,000 and tax levies of more than $16,000,000. Federal court recently ordered the state to reduce assessments for 1934, 1935 and 1936.
-—o o o—•OBSERVATIONS:—
Carbon monoxide gas in the eleven one-lane compulsory inspection stations throughout New Jersey is reported jeopardizing the health of inspectors and an appropriation of $25,- 000 is under consideration to provide proper ventilation. . . .A new $25,000 boat will be added to the state’s navy to chase gasoline bootleggers soon. . . A move is expected soon in the Legislature to directly exempt owners of all public cars from paying fuel tax to eliminate red tape in asking for refunds. . . .The old feud between State Finance Commissioner Bernard Lamb and State Highway Commissioner E. Donald Sterner over control of the highway budget is due for a revival
. .The weather and generally increased interest combined last week to provide one of the most successful state agricultural weeks in history
. .New Jersey’s State Department of Aviation will be “grounded”during 1940 unless the Legislature appropriates $3,600 for the purchase of an airplane.

GAS STEALER CAUGHTThree boys, all 16 years old, have
been arrested in Hillside on charges of stealing cars, according to Police Chief Winslow Brackett who identified one as taking gasoline from the Quaken- bush service station, Eighth avenue
and F street, here. The names were withheld because of their youth. They were apprehended Tuesday. Sunday the gas station proprietor had reported the number of a car which bought gas and drove off without paying for it. He will not prosecute, the chief said.

Warren C. Hopkins, a former Belmar youth, recently stopped unexpectedly to pay a visit in Belmar before leaving on a naval cruise. The people he expected to stay with were not at home. The Belmar police offered him hospitality which brought the following ■ letter of appreciation to the department:
January 21, 1940Gentlemen:Just a little note to, again, thank
you for the night’s lodging and your charitable hospitality. I am sure that the citizens of Belmar should be, and probably are, proud of their police department, and also; of the sincere kindness shown me, and probably many others, by their most efficient force.
I greatly appreciate what you did for me that night and sincerely hope that I left the room as neatly as I found it and also that I didn't cause you, or the persons responsible for the cleanliness thereof, any more work than was necessary.
However, I shall remember this kind deed bestowed upon me and I am sure that Mrs. Hagg on Fifteenth avenue would also express her appreciation for your kindness if she were home.
X hope that sometime there may be a way in which I can repay you and if so, it shall be with my utmost gratitude and appreciation.
Very truly yours,WARREN C. HOPKINS.
Mrs. Kisselman to Get$1,800 for Injuries
Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Kisselman, 1205 Maplewood avenue, were to receive $1,800 in a settlement out of court this week from Mrs. Minnie N. . Swartz, Highlands, and her son, ! Emanuel, of Headden’s Corners.
Mrs. Kisselman, the complainant, ] alleged, was shopping in the Swartz furniture store Dec. 12, 1938, when she fell downstairs breaking a collarbone and receiving other hurts.
She contended the staircase was not properly lighted nor guarded by railings and therefore the proprietor was negligent.

Friday night the local collegians went on a scoring spree and rang up 66 points to 39 for the fliers from the Casey Jones School of Aeronautics of Newark on the Bradley Beach court. Deak Ketcham paced his team with 24 points while Hensby and Miesky each piled up a personal score of 16. Henry Smith netted eight.
Using a tight zone defense the King’s men managed to keep the fliers at bay. Before the end of the first quarter, Deak had ten points and before the game was over he hit a new high in scoring.
Rudy Schlegel, the acting coach and a student at the college, played in the Jay-Vee game and substituted in the varsity scrimmage.Jay-Vees Lose to Red Raiders
Playing one of their finest games of the season, the Jay-Vees lost a good match with a clean playing Red Raider team to the tune of 32 to 18. Rudy Schlegel stole the show with his defensive playing.
Failing to hold the lead that they acquired in the first quarter, the Jay- Vees lost despite a rally staged by Oliver, Devine and Grimm which netted the local boys six points in less than a minute of the last period.

The benediction was given by the Rev. Norman Riely of Jerseyville. After the worship service an hour of fellowship followed during which Gospel chorus were sung. There were 68 young people present.

MINE WIDOWS ASSISTED
As the small community of Bartley, W. Va., buried more than four score victims of its mine disaster, the American Red Cross closed its emergency canteen and began the task of assisting families of the dead with their problems. Immediately following the explosion which entombed 91 men, the Red Cross rushed to the scene to assist rescue crews by operating a canteen at the mouth of the shaft. While the state provides compensation benefits and some of the men have ohter insurance, officials welcome the assignment of Red Cross disaster workers to act as liaison with families in working out plans for the future.
