VETOES THE WOOD
PAVING CONTRACT

Mayor Jacob Haussling, as had
been expected, returned to the Board
or Works today without his signature
the provisional award of the contract
by that body for the paving of Broad
street with wood block. The provi-
sional award of the board was made
to the Newark Paving Company,
which was the lowest of eight bid
ders.
In the veto the mayor reaffirms his
unalterable opposition to wood block
and declares he is so opposed to the
use of wood block that he would feel
compelled to interpose veto at any
stage of the proceedings" The veto
in full is as follows;

proval, a resolution adopted by your

TWO DAYS LEFT
TO PAY TAXES

81 8
But two more days remain for the
collection of taxes at City Receiver
Richard j. Franz's office before the
penalty of IL per cent. per annum
will be exacted in addition to the
face amount of the bill. Up until the
first of this month there had been a
discount of Y per cent, but since that
date and up until Saturday the full
date and up until the coming Satur-
day the full face amount of the bill is
collected
Within the past few days there has
been rush of citizens anxious to
pay their bills before the interest pen
atty goes into effect. Yesterday more
than $71 900 was collected, which is
an exceedingly large amount for this
time of the year as compared with
former years.
All told since the office opened for
the reception of the 1913 taxes OH
November 20 approximately $500
1862 has been collected. Subtracting
this from the total to be collected,
which is $S,051 ,2912S, leaves $2,S31,
005, ,06 still to be collected. Mr.. Franz
said this morning that when the office
closed Saturday at noon he feels Ger
tain that there will be less than ST.
600 900 to be collected.
The temporary clerks who have
been employed during the rush period
will be laid off Saturday. This will
be done in accordance with the ruling
laid down by the Civil Service Com
mission in the matter.

100000 BONDS
FOR THE NEW CITY
Market ! ARE SOLD
kean, Taylor & Co., of New
York, Get lssue-Eleven
Bids Entered.

City Comptroller Tyler Parmly to-
day sold the 100000 bonds for the new
city market, which were provided for
at the last meeting of the Common
Council. The sale is regarded by Mr..
Parmly as very important, owing to
the fact that 1t will make easier the
future sales of bond issues of this
sort.
Today's sale is the first sale of adj
yertised city bonds since the Passaic
Valley bond issue, over a year and a
half ago. The highest bidder and the
one to whom the contract will go is
Kean. Taylor & Co., of New York, at
a premium of 103.75.
There were eleven bidders all told,
all of them New York banking con-
Germs, with the exception of the Fed
eral Trust Company and J. s. Rippel
& Co., of this city. The Federal Trust
Company's bid was 101.50, while Rip
pels was 102.S75
The other bids were as follows
Curtis, Sanger & Co, 102.310; Lee. Hig-
ginson & Co., 1924; N. w. Halsey &
Co, 102.77; r. w. Pressprich & Co.,
102.S99; Hams, Forbes & Co., 101S23;
Estabrook e. Co., 1929; A. b. Leach
& Co., 103.67. and Kountze Bros,
103.071.
The bonds will be delivered to Kean,
Taylor & Co. within the next ten days,
Mr.. Parmly said. They are issued for
thirty years at Az per cent.
1t is figured that the high premium
of the Taylor concern will re-
duce this to about Az per cent. Mr..
Parmly declared that he had received
the congratulations of several bankers
on the sale of the bonds at such high
premium.

PAPAL HONORS
CONFERRED ON
NEWARK PRIEST
Rank of Monsignor Bestowed on
Dean Cody at Golden Ju-
bilee Mass.

In recognition of his work in be-
half of religion during his fifty years
in the priesthood, Very Rev. Dean
Patrick Cody, rector of st. James's
Church, has been raised to the rank
with the title of monsignor.
The announcement was made today
in the local edifice by Bishop O'Con-
nor. Bishop O'Connor was born in
the parish of St. Jamess and re-
ceved his first education in its
school
The announcement regarding the
rector of st. Jamess Church came in
the nature of surprise to all pres
ent except the heads of the diocese.
Many ciergymen attended the SerV-
ice which marked the clerical part
of this weeks golden jubilee celebra-
tion in honor of Monsignor Cody. He
was ordained to the priesthood De-
cember 10, 1868.
Dean Cody last night became the
recipient of jubilee gift OF purse
of $4,000. II was raised by his par
ishioners Dean Cody Immediately
announced that the money would not
be accepted as personal gift, but
would be used for church work.
Although the official document from
Rome elevating Dean Cody to the
rank of monsignor had been in the
hands of the bishop for the last two
weeks, the announcement came as a
bolt from the blue sky to the parish
ioners. Even the recipient of the
honor lost his composure for n min
ute. A number of his immediate
friends had heard the tidingS, but
Dean Cody was kept in utter ignor-
ance of his new honor.
The church was crowded to its ca
pacity at IL o'clock when the pro-
cession of priests, headed by acolytes,
left the rectory and marched into the
edifice.
In the procession there was more
than fifty priests. The line included
Monsignor Sheppard, vicar general of
the diocese: Monsignors Whelan,
Mooney and Mackel No sooner had
the bishop entered the sanctuary
than he formally made the announce
ment of the elevation OF Dean Cody.
He said:
"Your very reverend dean can look
back upon his fifty extraordinary and
golden years with. considerable pride.
The glory of this jubilee does not con-
sist merely Of the years he has served
Christ, but of the meritorious duty
he has done during that time, not
only to St James's Parish, but to the
diocese of Newark
"Your pastor can faithfully say, I
have fought a good fight and l have
won my cause Therefore, | am ex-
tremely thankful for the duty that
falls TO me today to pay tribute to

DEMOCRATS TO
CAUCUS ON PLAN
FOR GOVT WIRES
Agree to Consider Project in
January, Following Report
of Postmaster.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-Postmas-
ter-General Burleson's declaration
for the principle of government own
ership of telegraphs and telephones,
as outlined in his annual report just
made public, will be followed by a
Democratic caucus In the House in
January, which will decide how far
the project is to be made an adminis-
tration policy in Congress.
President Wilson has been giving
the project careful study and, admin
istration supporters say, has not
pressed it upon Congress at this time
because of the enormous expense in
volved. A preliminary move will be
congressional authorization to the
postmaster general to make re-
port on the feasibility of acquiring
the lines for a government monopoly.
Representative Lewis, who was
foremost among the congressional
leaders who worked out the parcel
post, had prepared a bill on the new
subject, but will give way to an ad-
ministration measure backed by
Chairman Moon, of the House post
office committee.
A sweeping declaration in favor or
government ownership of telephone
and telegraph lines and an assertion
that the postal service is now self
supporting for the first time since
1883, with surplus of $3,S41, ,906.75, are
the principal features of the import
ant annual report of Postmaster-Gen-
eral Burleson.
The postmaster general also sets
forth the phenomenal growth of the
parcel post, which i'm the hrst SIX
months carried 300, 900 of parcels
and is rapidly increasing; the growth
of the postal bank system which on
June 80 was in operation in 12,82o
offices and depoJitories, the number OF
depositors being 331 ,006 and having
$33, ,818,870 to their credit. An aerial
mail service is recommended for
mountainous sections of the country.
Increase of the postage from one cent
to two cents a pound is recommended
for newspapers so that letter postage
may be reduced to one cent. The
postmaster general asks for exclusive
iuridisction over the selection of sites
for postoffices.
Concerning the acquisition of tele-
phone and telegraph lines, Postmas-
ter General Burleson says that the
government has demonstrated It's ca
pacity to conduct public utilities, and,
recommends taking over by the POST
Office Department of the telegraph
lines and, also. of the telephone lines.
Discussing this the postmaster-gen
eral says:
THE monopolistic nature of the
telegraph business makes 1t OF vital
Importance to the people that it be
conducted by unselfish interests and
this can be accomplished only through
government ownership"
1t is shown in the report that every
other government but the United
States owns it's telegraph system In
connection with its postal system
The postmaster general says the
