rom. Of Reekle.. auto Driver.

To the Editor Of the Evening star:
notwithstanding tho fact that auto
mobile drivers have been cautioned by
the police and have been warned by
the arrest of others, many persist in
driving their cars recklessly and con-
tinue to have "joy-rides.'
Last night, with my wife and child,
| was almost run down. We were
crossing Broad at William street when
an automobile with two men and two
women came within an inch of killing
u.s.. The driver had apparently been
drinking. but, fortunately, swerved the
ear in time. I watched the quartet
then enter a hotel.
Now, please let the police watch
carefully and place under arrest any
driver who appears under the influence
of liquor. It viii save many accidents.
VICTIM.

Election Law Hurt. Charities.

Election Law Hurts Charities.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The new election law which prohib-
its candidates from making donations
of any kind to charitable organizations
should be stricken from New Jerseys
laws as loon as possible, for it actual
~ deprives mar of ordinary clvilities.
Religious organizations must not ask
candidates for subscriptions either, ae-
cording TO the new law. 1t Is at this
time of the year that the numerous
charities derive most of their revenue,
and it comes at a time when it is most
needed.
This section of the new election law
is as impracticable and Inadequate as
many other of its provisions, and the
sooner the entire asinine measure is
repealed the better every fair-minded
resident of the State will like it.

II y Camden county the Honorable David Baird showed yesterday
that he had lost none of the prestige in Republican politics
that has been his for many years. In formet struggles Baird
did not have TO fight front and rear as he did in the primary elec
ton campaign this year. Men who were arrayed against him in
this election were Ills lieutenants or his benefciaries. Their can
ddate for Senator was the protege Of Baird. That he attempted
to push aside his old commander and step into the leadership was
the one thing that aroused the ire of the veteran and at the same
time rallied to him the support that won the election so hand
somely for the regular party candidates.

Smiling Tom Hood, the man who
brings smiles and sometimes sad ex-
pressions to the Prudential building,
was a real Samaritan last week. Yes,
Tom is the letter-carrier. One of the
lads In an office was telling him how he
was expecting a letter from mother
boy who had left who owed him fifty
cents. The boy was always waiting at
the door and finally Tom delivered the
letter with the money. But IT was his
own, and he delights in telling how
happy it made the little fellow.
