o EARLY
HOLIDAY SHOPPING

holidays. Before December 1 the storekeepers have laid in their
holiday and winter stocks of goods, and are as we'll prepared to
serve their trade as later, while at the same time their goods are
not picked over, and there is a greater variety to select from than
after the holiday trade sets in in earnest. Shoppers have plenty
of elbow room and clerks have the time to give them the attention
they want, whereas when the rush begins a shopper must patiently
submit to long waits, as well as crowding and other annoyances.
1t is clearly, then, to the interest of the shopper to shop early in
the season, and if this is done some relief will be given to the
clerks and salesgirls during the holiday season, and likewise more
comfort In shopping to the many people who are compelled to
delay their purchases until the last few days before Christmas.
The STAR would suggest that, to carry out the suggestion for
early shopping, agreements be made by women to join in a general
early shopping movement. The women's clubs could lead in such
a movement, and induce hundreds, and perhaps thousands. of
their sisters to cooperate. Apart from the convenience to shoppers
themselves, the women's clubs could do no better work than that
Of giving some relief to overworked women and girls in the stores
during the season of holiday buying.

A WE SIT DOWN
TILL ACTS?

community that takes the initiative in waterway and commercial
development has a much better chance for Federal aid than if it
went bare-handed to Congress to supply the means to pay for the
improvement. Newark waited long to get appropriations for
deepening the channel of the Passaic. 1t is likely to wait longer
for an appropriation for the large waterfront development project
now in hand if the city sits down now to wait upon the com
plaisance of Congress. Nor is the time propitious. President
Taft said in his addresses in the West that the policy should be
to issue loans and construct waterways according to general plans
that will benefit the whole country. The great national water
ways movement is pressing on Congress and will force some legs-
lation at the coming session. The effect will be to discourage
local appropriations in the river and harbor bill. With the great
national projects in view, the smaller ones intended to benefit Sec
lions or localities will get cold attention at Washington. Newark
has definite objects, and capable engineers have submitted plans
and estimates. The city can go ahead while Congress is in ses
sion and carry out its plans, as far as possible. The meadow
property can be acquired, as undoubtedly it should be, without.
delay. That show of enterprise and energy will impress Congress-
1t will evidence faith in the improvement and a spirit that must
needs find some response at Washington.

The Matthews Controuersu

To the Editor Of the Star:
This evening the Board of Education
will face the Mathews problem.
Rarely. In many years, has the board
had so important a matter before it. BY
this time the members of the board are
keyed up TO the situation, and We
may expect them to meet the issue
fairly Inc squareIy without fear or
favor.
have read all the letters which have
appeared for the last fortnight in the
columns of the STAR and from them l
deduce two facts Which stand uncon-
tested and which should aid the board
TO a just settlement OF the case:
First-Professor Mathews presided
over a melting at which:
Religion and the Bible were assailed,
Anarchy al brutality taught,
Murder was advocated.
This first fac is admitted by all your
correspondents and has not been con-
tradicted by Professor Mathews.
Second-Not even he most extreme
correspondent was willing to stand for
the introduction of these teachings into
the public schools; If he was he did not
dare so state.
Now we may eliminate the Ferrer
case entirely. That case must stand
on its own merits and certainly the
Board. of Education may rightly decline
to settle 1t one way or the other.
We may also eliminate all reference
to the Catholic, Church The church
had nothing to do with Ferrer's trial
or sentence. And anyhow the Catholic
Church is not on trial and there was
no reason. except blind bigotry. to. bring
the church into the Mathews incident
We may eliminate discussion on the
right Of free speech. No one question.

has legal and moral limitations. Isthinl

but see that those limitations were

TWO TRUTHS
WITH A QUALIFICATION

every man shall have the right to have his ballot in his home, sc
that he can fix it to suit himself" Therein the Governor is EN-
phaticaHy in the right and in perfect accord with the great ma
jority of voters in the State. Governor Fort also declared that "A
man can go today into a primary contest without a dollar" That
also is true. The man may go in, but the question is how will
he come put? A man without a dollar, unless he can find trust
ing and liberal lenders or hackers, hasn't got the ghost of a show
for nomination in the primaries to any Office above that of con-
stable.

WHERE ASSESSED
VALUATIONS ARE LOW

property, land and buildings alone in Atlantic City are worth more
than the sixty millions which is in excess of this years assess.
ment of real and personal property. The new tax laws have
boosted assessed valuations all over the State, but unequally. Ten
years ago the net amount of ratables in Atlantic City was SIS, 299,
400, so that in ten years the assessment has more than trebed.
There has been much building improvement and increase in land
values since 1889, but property then was ridiculously undervalued
for taxation, and to a greater extent than anywhere else in the
State. The rate of assessment today is much lower than the rate
in Newark, and is one of the lowest in the State. If there was a
State tax on the ratables there would be some lively criticism Of
localities where the assessors fail to do their duty, and<the Legis
laturea would he forced to adopt laws for a better equalization in
