EXCISE Law REPEAL
Urged BY GERMANS
Arion Cesangverein Would Take Jones-
Works Measure OF Statute Books
or Secure Modification.
ST. LOUIS ALLIANCE TO ACT

The Jones' Works excise law and Its
damaging influence on German socie-
ties and their Sunday business again
was brought up for discussion at the
monthly, meeting OF the Arion Gesang-
verein at its clubhouse last night. Au-
gust Schmidt presiding.
After a debate which embraced every
conceivable proposition or measure
which might result in the repeal or the
modification of the law and its strin-
gent application. II was unanimously
resolved to submit the whole question
to the biennial meeting of the National
German-American Alliance, which is to
convene at st. Louis In October. with
the request that this body adopt res
olution calling on every Representative
in Congress to pledge himself to make
every effort TO modify or repeal the
law.
John Weber was elected as the Arions
candidate for delegate OF the United
German Societies of this city to the St.
Louis convention. 1t was urged upon
the members to use every effort in other
societies to endorse Weber's candidacy
and to oppose the election of a dele
gate who might be an employe of the
government on the ground that he would
be prevented from acting freely and for
the best interests of the society.
The United Singers. under the presi-
dency Of John Waldman. held a meeting
at Saengerbund hall and adopted a reso-
luton requesting the Northeastern Saen-
gerbund comprising all singing societies
in the Northwestern section of the United
States, to memorabilia their respective
representatives In Congress and to de-
mand that the Jones-Works excise law
be either modified or altogether repealed.

Before its acceptance the Boyle work
was modified in certain architectural

ATLANTIC CITY JETTY
W. A. Soles Says that Construction

Enhance Values,

known engineer of New York City, who
has written Mai. R. R. Raymond. If tie
War Department, offering to bid on the
work of making a deep channel for Abse-
con Inlet, is not disposed to agree with
the major on his proposition that the
building of jetty would result in the
ruination of the entire beach front of
the resort.
Il cannot see why a jetty here should
cause any more ruin than at any other
point. Over $l.0O0. 900 was spent in build
ing the big jetty at Cape May ard dreds-
ing that inlet, and the beach is building
up in the vicinity of the tetty so that it
will soon make a deal of saleable land,
where heretofore there has been nothing
but waste" said Mr.. Soles.
of course. 1 don't want to take iosue
with Maj. Raymond on a subject in
which he is undoubtedly well versed, for
he has made a study of such matters for
years. But still I believe (hayinx in
mind the amount of money available and
the urgent need Of immediate action) tae
building of a jetty. both from an enRi-
neering and practical standpoint, to be
the most feasible plan Of opening the
Absecon channel quickly and keeping
1t open until the government completes
its dredges and places it in service.
The 5etty would prevent the present
bars from returning into the channel.
and then the only chance to refill would
come from the ocean side"
