party in years past.
ITO my mind Otto Wittpenn typl=
fies this issue. His fight in Hudson
county has been a fight against UNI
supportable conditions His influence
in the State of New Jersey has been
exerted to prevent a return to power
of those influences and elements
which have been detrimental to good
government He has done more than
merely advocate these changes. lie
has politically organized a movement
which alone could have made SUI II
changes possible in so large a county
of the State as Hudson.

in our public life We're refusing 10
take sides Wittpenn was on the firing
line, stalking his political destinies en-
his fight in behalf of Governor Wilson
and in behalf of progressive Democ-
racy
ut is this character of leadership
that the people. must have if our
party is TO remain in power Strong
men, brave enough to enter the battle
before the victory is won, are needed
in the public life of today"

months ago, was placed on proba ton,
after being found guilty of a charge
of larceny was today sentenced to
serve one year in the county peniten-
tiary by Judge William p Mortin

Parish Review has this to say regard
ing the lack of Catholic representa-
ton on the local Board of Education.
Construe it as YOU may, The ugly fact
remains that we hive no representation
In the school board in proportion 60 our
numbers. We are about so or 60 per
cent. of the voters of this great city
and although there is school board
consisting of nine members, there is but
one Catholic TO represent US. This Is
not IN keeping with the principles for
winch our forefathers fought "No Tax
alton without Representation" We are
sented
1t is true that we do not own 30 or 60
per cent. of the property of the city We
are are poor II YOU Will, as a class; but
the poor man is the one who pays the
taxes; The property holder makes an
Investment when he builds his fats and
tenements, but if his taxes are raised,
the poor mans rent scars proportion-
ately. The owner must have his 10 Der
cent. or his investment is a failure: his
percentage, therefore, must come from
lhe NOrkIuun. Tive us. then, the rep
resentation we should have
ANY broad minded individual will APP
preciate the justice of this demand, and
let me say, there are cities in this county
not to speak of the State, where we have
such representation.
Then, again, let our Board of Educa
tion be made up of men capable OF
filling the position, not of individuals
handed up by some leading ward poll
tician. OF all the boards in our city
we know of none that should be so free
OF politics as our school board Its
members should be men of some educa-
ton; we do not mean men with knowl-
edge of educational fads. but men who
know something of practical, everyday
life.
The monsignor also takes occasion
to remind officials and others that the
action of the Board of Education in
permitting pupils of parochial schools
to enter the high schools was an act
of justice, for which credit should
not be bestowed toe freely.

GROSSCUP COMES
OUT FOR W|TTPENN
State Chairman Calls Jersey
City Mayor Logical candi-
date for Governor.
[FEom . STAR correspondent.l

TRENTON, N. j., March 31.-The
Democratic State chairman. Edward
e. Grosscup, today Endorsed the can
didacy of Mayor II. Otto Wittpenn.
of Jersey City, for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination. Mr.. Gross
cup believes Mayor Wittpenn to be
the logical candidate of the Demo-
former Governor Woodrow Wilson
Mr. Grosscup said:
at have had a peculiar opportunity
during the last year and a half, as
chairman of the Democratic State
Committee, to observe men and af-
fairs in the Democratic party of this
State.
I'm the great battle fought by our
President for the establishment of
progressive principles and progressive
measures in this State Democrats
have been forced either to go on rec
ord or to avoid the issue, and our
party leaders have been subjected to
a crucial test.
"Of all the men who have aided in
this great movement none deserve
more credit than H. Otto Wittpenn,
mayor of Jersey City. Without his
active. energetic and intelligent sup
port the movement which had for its
object the nomination of Woodrow
Wilson as President would have been
very seriously jeopardized. Wittpenn
and his friends led the fight in the
great Democratic county of Hudson,
and Wittpenn, to my own personal
knowledge, shouldered much of the
burden of financing and managing
the campaign which resulted in an
overwhelming victory.
His View of wittpenn's Service.
Had the State of New Jersey at
this critical time not given Governor
Wilson an overwhelming majority of
the delegates to the Democratic ma
tional convention the great progress
sive movement in New Jersey would
have been retarded by many years,
and unless Governor Wilson had re-
ceived the active support of men like
Mayor Wittpenn victory would have
been almost an impossbility.
I'm view of the powerful assistance
which Wittpenn gave to this move
ment | can confidently say that out
side of Woodrow Wilson himself, Otto
Wittpenn has done more than any
other one man in the present crisis.
Therefore, to my mind, he becomes
the logical successor of Woodrow
Wilson as governor of New Jersey,
provided the people of this State and
the members of the Democratic party
desire that their government should
continue free from the control which

that ashes and garbage be separated,
and that they be placed in metal re-
ceptacles, he said. He held that the
contractor should not be held respon-
sible for this condition until the
householders are made to perform
their part of the bargain.
Action Against Householders.
His contention along these lines
prompted the board to action against
householders. On motion of Commits
sioner Gillen the board will seek the
cooperation of the police department
in forcing the citizens to use the uni
form size of receptacles. For each
violation a complaint will be made
and the guilty person fined. 1t is the
duty of the police, Mr.. Gillen contend
ed to see that all city ordinances are
complied with.
The commissioner declared further
that he had arranged for a report
from the Board of Health, the gar
bage inspector, street department, en-
gineering department to be presented
to the board on Thursday, showing
conditions as they exist at the pres
ent time. He also declared that it
was possible that there would also be
report from the minority member of
the board.
This brought the remark from Com
missioner Denman that there certain
ly would be. He took the stand that
he has held to from the start that the
contract will not be lived up to until
the fifteen garbage inspectors who
were suspended on January |, are
put back to work.
Good Pinochle Players.
"Well, so long as | am member of
this board" Commissioner Gillen de-
clared. II will oppose the reinstate-
ment of these or any other employees
who were suspended. They were dis
charged because their positions were
found upon investigation to be super
fluous."
well, that may be good Democra-
tic policy" replied Commissioner
Denman, but to my mind it is poor
city management"
There is no need of playing hide
and seek on this proposition shot
back Gillen. I'VE do not want
pinochle supervision. We are free to
admit that we had the fifteen best
pinochle players in the city on our
payroll as garbage inspectors"
Following the meeting Commits
sioner Kraemer declared that the
board would certainly insist upon the
payment of the fines that were inn
posed on March 20. A resolution
adopted on that day provided that
Marrone was to be fined $500 a day,
beginning the following day. Friday,
until he was able to live up to the
contract to the satisfaction of the
board.
| AT the rate of $500 a day Marrone
now owes the city $1,000. This amount.
together with an additional 5000 for
tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday.
will be deducted from his monthly
payment by the city on Thursday.

SUMMERS PLANS NOT

summer have not been completed and
no statement was to be had at the
White House last night concerning
the announcement that Winston
Churchill's home. in the Green noun

White House." 1t is understood,
however, that the President has ar
ranged s-i>'a 80 novelist for the use
of the rsoperty and expects to spend
at least a part of the summer there.
Upon the length of the extra ses-
sion of Congress, which begins a
week from next Tuesday, will depend
the extent of the Presidents absence
from Washington. He expects to be
at work almost constantly during the
session, and if 1t is unexpectedly
drawn out there will be little time for

The authenticity of the picture,
