Mo Boost In Meat.

If the European wal has any immc-
date effect on meat prices 1t will have
a tendency to reduce rather than inc
crease prices, according to local meat
dealers. 1t is pointed out that be-
cause of the lack of shipping facilities,
it will be impossible to export much
meat to the countries now engaged in
war. If the United States had a mer-
chant marine, the dealers say, meats
and other provisions could be sold in
large quantities t. Europe, particular
ly if the war should continue for a
long period Of time.

Tax Complaint Boards.

Tax Complaint Boards. !
Reports to the State Tax Commis-
sion indicate that the work OF the new
county boards of complaint which;
have convened in every county seat
of the state, will be comparatively
light. Where there are no complaints
the complaint boards are directed to|
adjourn for a week or more and await
developments. Where protests against
appraisals have been made the board9
will fix dates for hearings at which
careful Investigations will be madeA
AS the boards are to be paid for the
time only when they are actually in,
session, it is not expected the county
complaint board positions will prove
attractive. Where district assessors
have not quite completed their work.
the state a commission suggests that
county budget commissions adjourn
for a few days. Until the complete
duplicates can be certified nothing can
be done toward fixing rates. However,
the commission adds, the delay iii cer4
flying the duplicates should not inter4
fere with the plan for holding pubNc|
meetings with the taxpayers under inv
structions previously formulated. +,

The old Union Street Methodist

in that section. Years ago, before the
population had changed so radically,
it was filled to overlooking with old

Hardly church in Newark but what
has some former Union street people,
who have migrated to the hill section
or the suburbs.
Some of the most prominent minis

as DR.. A. II. futile, of Summit. and
DR.. Glare Baldwin, of East Orange,
were formerly pastors of this old
church, which is still calamity hold

When asked what his particular
hobby was, Mr. Coon said: There
are several things in which 1
am intensely interested. Old-fash-
Toned evangelistic revivals come
first. Then there are national
constitutional prohibition, woman s

in Paterson two years ago, because
of his interest in prison reform. He
