MAYOR TO MAKE
BUT FEW CHANGES
Hundreds of Applicants for Po-
sitions, but HaussIing
Keeps Mum -

While a hundred names are men
toned for one or the other commits
sionerships which Mayor Haussling
has to fill next Wednesday. it is un-
terstood he will make few changes.
Name after name has been heard for
this place or that, but no one has been
found as yet with the appointment in
his pocket.
It is said that the mayor feels salts
fed with the administration of most
of the commissions and that he looks
upon the vote at the last election as
supporting them. as we'll as himself
The issue was the administration, and
as the appointees are part of the adj
ministration, the public approval was
shared by the men the mayor ap-
pointed to office.
If the mayor had lost out. the
appointees would also have lost.
Those supporters of the party who
bury self-interest and have ever up
permost the success of the party at
heart. it is said. have argued for the
continuance of the Haussling admin
istration with but little change.
They contend that replacing of men
who figured in the past years work
would be regarded by bitter partisans
as a corroboration of the campaign
statements which the people declared
false.
OF course, someone will take the
place of Louis V. Aronson on the
Playground Commission, but just who
the mayor has in mind is known to
the mayor only. and he is not ready
to tell.
Aside from appointments to the
school board and excise commission,
it is believed that the official person
mel at the City Hall will be greatly
changed when the mayor makes pub

night defled by the Kearny Town

at the alliance. In terms that savored

an editorial wherein. and, according
TO the councilman, the council was

tribute TO what proved to be q storm
of criticism. He referred to a recent
statement of the Civic Alliance to the

an official act that should cause any
criticism.

situation and scoring the alliance for
its black hand" methods, the mayor
referred to the newspaper editorial
which had to do with the fight be-
tween the alliance and Town Clerk
william B. Ross regarding fees re-
ceiYed by Mr.. Ross for tax searches.
In the editorial ii was stated that
the minutes of the Council are pep
pered with criticisms of the alliance
by members of the Council.
The mayor declared this a mis-
statement of facts, and invited rep
resentatives of the paper in question
to inspect the minutes of the Coun-
Gil. Councilman James J. McAteer
declared the editorial TO be "damna-
BILE and an insult to the members of

LATE STORMS
HURT STATE
TOMATO CROP

Delaware farmers are now finding
that the tomato crop, which few
weeks ago was so promising, will not
be up to expectations. The reason for
this condition OF affairs is that the
heavy rain and hail storm two weeks
ago damaged the vines. Reports from
every district Of the county are the
same. The blossoms of the late to-
matoes we're cut off vines were
broken and general damage was done.
From Maryland comes the news
that the canneries there are excep-
tionally busy and that the yield will
be good.
The canning season for the new
crop Of tomatoes will be on within
the next two weeks, and, from reports,
promises to be a record-breaker. The
outlook is for one Of the largest and
finest crops for many years. And not
only the tomato crop, but the sugar
corn as well. promises TO be re-
markable one. The jobbers from all
over the country report that the de-
mands from their customers are in
creasing rapidly. and they look for
ward 10 a large distribution Of Balti-
more canned goods during the fall
and winter months.
Levy Court Commissioner Buckson,
reports that the damage in his sec
fion was considerable. In ST. Georges
hundred where the contract price is
50 a ton the crop was damaged 10
such an extent that the loss will be
very heavy on the growers. The

is larger than in former years.
