Mr.. Katzenbach emphatieally de-
'ciared that the public school system
of today, is such that the poor and
rich alike are In q position to accept
ladder OF fame with as much alacrity
and success as did the martyred Lin
coin or the versatile Washington,
both highly lauded in the speakers
remarks. He took hia hearers back
to the days Of these much discussed
presidents. and compared the Iuxuri-
Ious life of President Washington,
whose birthday viii be celebrated
tomorrow, with the humble circum-
stances surrounding the birth and
rise OF stha world famous Lincoln.
ut Is ample proof the statesman
declared, THAT 1t Is the man and not
the environments which produce
good citixens."
During his speech the farmer can
didate for the chief magistrates
chair made no reference to Governor
Woodrow Wilson, either as the
states highest official or the execu-
.tive's present campaign for the
Democratic nomination as president
of the United States. Mr.. Katzen-
bach was defeated by Mr.. Wilson for
the gubernatorial nomination at the
Democratic primaries nearly TWO
years ago.
GeraA Boems Wilson.
On the other hand the first speak
er OF the evening, Mr.. Geran, strong
ly doomed the candidacy of the pop
ular governor and urged every free
thinking and loyal Jerseyman to
swing in line for the Wilson pledged
delegates. He declared that the New
Jersey executive has set the entire
country talking and thinking by the
work he has accomplished during
mis- short reign. He says that every
Jerseyman should consider 1t an
honor to have the next president a
resident and former chief magistrate
Iof the State of New Jersey. A loud
demonstration OF approval greeted
these remarks.
