PERTH AMBOY
MAY LOSE PORT
Taft's Order Believed to
Merge 1t With New York.

Unless Congress interferes 1t Is
believed by local custom officials that
the office of collector of the port Of
Perth Amboy will be abolished and
this port with Newark, will be mer-
ged with the New York port, as a re-
suit of one of the last orders Of
President Taft.
There are 165 collectors of Gus
toms throughout the United States,
but under this order all except forty
nine would be abolished and those
Offices be merged into other ports.
Deputy collectors would be placed
over the ports which this order
would make subsidiary. The order
is to take effect July l, II Congress
does not take action to prevent 1t. A
saving of 100000 annually is claim
ed for the new plan.
Perth Amboy ranks among the
first ports In the country, having
last year turned over to the govern
ment more than 100000. Accord
ing to local customs officials the city
would lose her indentity as port
and little reduction OF expenses
would ensue by putting this policy
into effect. C. A. Francis is the
present collector of this port. II
this order is rescinded by Congress
his term will not expire until 1915.

GOOD POSITION
FOR BRANDEIS
Likely to Becoms Interstate
Commerce Commissioner
ltted Press Wire.

Special By United Press Wire.
Washington, March 5:-The post
of interstate commerce commission
er, from which he will direct the
forthcoming inquisition into the
original cost of the railroads of the
United States, is reported today to
be the honor reserved for Louis E.
Brandeis. No such tremendous task
has been undertaken in the history
of modern industrial life in any
country in the world.
The new law. enacted by the pas
sage OF the LaFolletteAdamson
physical valuation bill. authorizes
the Interstate Commerce Commiss-
ion to employ experts who shall
trace to the original source all al
legged elements OF value for rate
making passages for all common
carriers, subject to the general In
terstate commerce law.
The law was devised to prevent
railroads from capitalizing good
WILL" good concerns vaiue" and
other charges against the public.
The theory is that not one cent
shall be allowed In rates beyond a
fair return upon the original in
vestment Of funds from outside
sources in the roads. No invest
ment of surplus earnings will be
considered as reasonable" or as a
Just" source of future revenue, be-
cause the surplus was practically a
graft IN the first place, according to
economists. If this theory is car
ried out in the valuation, the $13,-
600. 100000 OF Capitalization of
American railroads will shrink to a
fraction of that sum, SO far as in
terest-earning value is concerned.

RHEUMATIC PAINS
 PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Relief Comes After Taking
 Few Doses of Croxone


 It is needless to suffer with rheu- matism, and be all crippled up and bent out of shape with it's heart wrenching pains, when you can avoid it.
 Rheumatism comes from weak, in- active kidneys. that fail to filter from the blood the poisonous waste matter and uric acid; and the only way to overcome it is to remove the cause
 Croxone does this because it neu- tralizes and dissolves the poisonous substances and uric acid that lodge in the joints and muscles, to scratch and irritate and cause rheumatism, and cleans out and strengthens the stopped up. inactive kidneys. so they can filter the poison from the blood, and drive it on ana out of the system.
 Croxone is a truly remarkable med icine for rheumatism, kidney troubles and bladder disorders. You will find it differs from other remedies. There is nothing else just like it. It mat ters not how old you are. or how long you have suffered, it is practically lm- possible to take it without results. Relief follows the first few doses and you will be surprised how quickly all misery and suffering will end.
 An original package of Croxone costs but a trifle and all druggists are authorized to sell it on positive money back guarantee Three doses a day for a few days is often all that is ever needed to overcome the worst backache or urinary disorders.
Norwich bulletin., 1913-10-01

County Commissioner Charles D. Moves concluded service of over a dozen busy years on the board on Tuesday, and his successor Albert H. Lanphere, of Waterford comes into office today. For his whole term as a county commissioner MT. Moves has been secretary and treasurer of the board, whi2h will now meet shortly and organize by the election of a chairman and a secretary and treas urer. The other members of the board are Fred J. Brown of Lebanon and Charles H. Smith of Groton, both of whose terms expire on Oct l. 1915.
 MT. Moves first became a member of the board on July l. 1901. and was re- appointed successively for three terms of four years each since then. The period during which he has been a member of the board and it's secretary and treasurer has been one in which the county commissioners have faced the problem of mOdernfZ1ng the Sev- eral buildings of the county, which has meant a large amount of work for the commissioners. but has brought the buildings up where they stand today reconstructed and brought up to mod ern requif anents, In accomplishing this the harmonious and effective way in which the board has worked to- gether has resulted in putting each improvement through inside the amount which was appropriated for it. and the record made is one that the commissioners for the last dozen years can look back upon with a good deal of pride and satisfaction.
 The buildings which have come un- der their treatment have been the county home in Norwich, the two jails and the two courthouses in Norwich and New London.
 At the county home there has been a general reconstruction, and more land has been secured. The home has been made as safe as possible by the
