Crest
THE RESORT BEAUTIFUL
Always COOL Always CIeanl
Always Healthy!

WILDWOOD CREST stands alone in its rapid develop
ment. 1t faces the Atlantic Ocean, adjoins City of Wildwood
and has the Delaware Bay in its rear. It is the new summer
resort and there IS not a cooler or more healthful place in
all the states of the Union. There are no finer beaches or
sailing and fishing water anywhere.
Cement pavements and cutters, artesian water, gas and
electricity, sanitary sewage system approved by the State
Board of Health, hard graveled streets and telephone sys-
TENS extend to every building site, and trolley cars run
throughout the resort.
1t is six years old, and in that time has multiplied nearly
eight hundred times IN assessed valuation in the state rata
|bles, but the founders are selling ground at no more than
they received at the beginning, well knowing the effect of
population and building on the land they retain. Hundreds
and boardwalk a mile along the surf in Wildwood Crest
are now ministeTing to the health, rest and pleasure of many
thousands of people.
WILDWOOD CREST is the Coolest, C1eanest, Health
lest Summer Home Resort on the New Jersey Coast, where
all the conveniences of seashore summer life are to be had.

Such changes as were made IN the
Owen bill today were minor ones, and
did not affect the character of the bill.
1t is doubtful II any important changes
will be made by the CAUCUS. A number
of the Democratic Senators are restive
because they favor the idea of public
ownership and public control as con-
tained in the Hitchcock bill. Senator
Lane Of Oregon has refused to go into
caucus because he does not believe in
the owen plan Of bank ownership and
bank control.
Some Indication was given today that
the currency bill might be forced
through before Christmas While Re
publican Senators resent the efforts Of
the Democrats to make the bill mat
ter of party politics and rush 1t through
with scant consideration, they say they
have no intention of fllbustering or of
doing anything to delay the passage of
the measure. Senator Smoot said today
he would not oppose prompt action on
the bill. The same idea was expressed
by a number of other Republicans

Sir William Tyrrel, secretary to Sir
Edward Grey, the British foreign min
lister, conferred with President Wilson
today, regarding the increasingly alarm
ing conditions surrounding the British
and American oil properties at Tampico
and Tuxpam, Mexico.
The fact that the conference was held
despite the holiday, was taken to mean
despite foreign minister's secretary, who
has been in constant communication with
the British minister in Mexico City and
the British consul at Tampico. has re-
ceived private advices of more definite
threats against the valuable properties
Sir William twice before has conferred
with the President regarding conditions
in Mexico, and following his last visit
the Administration here let it be known
that, should the necessity arrive, Rear
Admiral Fletcher, commanding the
United States battleships in the Gulf,
has full power to land marines. Ad-
miral Fletcher is now at Tampico,
where the rebels have threatened to fire
the oil tanks there unless the federal
garrison orders the Mexican gunboat
from the scene.
No word was received at either the
State or Navy Departments today con-
firming the reported capture of Tuxpam
by a force of 200 rebels.

Mockery to Talk Of
Thanks, Says Riddle

ATLANTIC CITY, n. J., Nov. 81
There are too many people with moth
ing to be thankful for" was the reason
assigned here today by Mayor William
Riddle for his failure to issue any
Thanksgiving proclamation.
Riddle who is wealthy, recently an
nounced his family would buy no eggs
as a personal wallop at the high cost
of living.
II always like to say what is in my
mind" said Mayor Riddle. and | am
afraid this year it would be foolish to
issue Thanksgiving proclamation. I
feel that there are so many men out of
work and the money market is so tight
that it would be sort of mOckcry to
extol the blessings Of this day unless
conditions warranted il"

The caucus did not dispose Of the

question of the number of regional
