McAllister Datz Revises
His List of Jersey City's
Creme de la Creme.
MORE NAMES ADDED TODAY
People Wondering How He Ar.
rived at His Conclusions and
What Standard he Adopted.

'sThere is a great field in this town for
Ward McAllister, said Superintendent
Datz of City Hall this morning. Ever
since it was announced that this portrait
presentation is to be made exclusive l
have received letters from people in all
parts of the city pleading for invitations.
My telephone has been kept busy ana
messengers have been here by the score
seeking the apparently much coveted IN
vitations. 1t strikes me that it is not
the invitation they seek, but merely the
pleasure of seeing their names published
in the newspapers. 1 am sick of the whole
affair and wish the duty of sending out
invitations had been given to some one
else However, the exercises will be in
teresting and I expect Jersey City's rep
resentative people will be present"
