william Young OF tho North British and
Mercantile Insurance Company says that
most OF tho pier owners. not knowing ex-
actly what was intended. refuse TO take
any chances with their policies now In force.
| Those owners who paid the per cent extra
charge had no arrangement with the ex-
change. but the lessees or owners who signed
! an agreement not TO allow these trucks on
| the piers had to receive proper and Official
notification OF else In admitting trucks con-
trary to the agreement they would be iiabl.
| for insurancenl through violation OF
the agreement In case OF FIRE.
Mr.. Young said that the truck people
muat be content 70 wait until such notice
IL sent out. Then the pter owners must

The war OF the automobile clubs IN New
Jersey will probably go on for some time
beyond the mass meeting In Newark which
is to- be held next Wednesday night This
meeting ia called At the request Of . sum
Gent number OF members who do not like
the action that was taken by the club trus-
tees In voting TO leave the Associated Auto
mobile clubs Of New Jersey and who. now
that n" occasion has arisen. will inquire
into aoTe other matters that are regarded
OF importance. Among these will be GER
tain questions as to spending money.
When the fght began the man point
involved seemed TO be that the New Jersey
Automobile and Motor Club did not believe
IL had fair representation in the Associated
Automobile Clubs and furthermore that the
State organization was not seeking proper
remedies for the existing motor vehicle
laws The original differences were rally
a. 20 legislation and the proper credit for the
sams.
But the thing has gone beyond that point
and the eleven members who asked for tho
NEE tina Of next Wednesday Expect TO show
that the club officials handled the legislative
matter against the best interests OF the
motorists of the State and Furthermore
that they did very unwiSely In spending
several thousand dollars in overhAuIing
the present clubhouse when the clubs leaae
has only few months 10 run. This matter
IL of course rather within the club and not
| much OF public interest
The New Jersey Automobile and Motor
| Club has q large membership and OF this
| about .tOo members are entitled TO A 4. 4.
clarence n. Hi--ell. president OF the club,
that the state association by special
| ruling. allows only four DELEGATES TO tho
should b. seven delegates. one for each
| 200 active memb~rs Jna~ph ". Wood.
president OF tho state body, has made the
! that IN. club was entitled TO seven deieg gates
and that the claim made as TO four has there
! fore no foundation
