TO ASK SEITZ OF
TENURE OF MAYOR
Council Wants Legal Opinion
on Royal-Copelin Term
Tangle

City Council next Tuesday will like
ly ask City Solicitor d. S. Seitz for an
opinion on the question of whether or
not the terms of office of Mayor John
K. Royal and City Treasurer o. NJ
Copelin expire the first Monday OF
December or the first Monday in Janu-
airy. according to City Commissioners
w. H. Lynch to-day
The question has been botherine
municipal and legal circles for the
last few days in view of the curious
mix-up in the wording of the Clark act
relative to the election of mayor or city
treasurer, and the old 1899 act.
Commissioners Bowman will not be
here for Tuesdays meeting and | do
not know how the other members OF
Council feel about this matter, but |
think It Is quite likely. that we will ask
for Mr.. Seitz's opinion" said Mr.
Lynch. I'VE haven't got much time

missioenrs will prepare the 1915 city
budget This must be passed before
the present council goes out of office,
The fact that every effort will be made
W hoiu lHe tax rate 10 nine mills will
preclude the making of very little
change in the way of salary appropri-
ations, according TO Mr. Lynch. That
would indicate. he said, that nothing
could be provided for additional sal
aries.
Little credence is given in city cir
cles to the newspaper story of an ef
fort to reform the old park board to
conduct the city's park affairs. II
don't see how that can be DONE" de-
clared Mr.. Lynch to-day. THE law

to put William McIlhenny into the

With a record for expansion in tha

of any other year in the towns his
tory, Hershey, the town made famous
by NJ. S. Hershey, of chocolate fame,
is formulating a program of still
greater development for the coming

During the month of October the
big Hershey chocolate works turned
out its sweetened product at full
capacity. Four hundred and fourteen
full carloads and thousands of smaller
shipments of Hershey products left
the Reading freight yards there for
all parts of the world during October
alone. And this feverish activity in
business has been reflected in every
other branch of the towns life.
Within the present year the Hershey
Chocolate Company has added five
great stone and cement buildings
with more than ten acres of floor
space for factory purposes; it has
more than doubled its power equip
ment; it has placed many specially
constructed machines in it's factories

Mayor-elect Meals was asked
whether or not it was true that he
intended to create the position of su-

were true, was William S. Tunis to get

One of the papers last evening
quoted me to the effect that l had inti-

of police was to be provided. The
trouble about YOU fellows, sometimes,
is that you say only what you want to
say and don't say all you're told in an
interview for your papers. What l did
say went on the Mayor elect, "or at

National Defense Issue Boldly

Sbecial to The Telegraph

Washington, D. c., Nov. 6.-Wil-
liam Jennings Bryan's reply to Presi-
dent Wilson's speech on national de-
fense in New York Thursday night
has caused a break in Democratic
ranks which is unmendable. Bryan is
"squaring" himself for the attack
made on him by Wilson in 1908 and
the division in the party promises be
yond all doubt to keep the President
out of a second term.
This attack marks the beginning OF
a factional fight in the Democratic
party. President Wilson's advisers
had fully expected that Mr.. Bryan had
left the Cabinet with the specific in
tention of leading a pacific campaign
and would be found not only oppos-
ing the administrations preparedness
policy, but the candidacy of Mr. Will
son for a second term.
The attack vas directed against a
speech In which President Wilson had
planned to sound the keynote of the
coming campaign. The President had
timed his utterance to a month before
the opening of Congress, which gives
sufficient time for it to permeate
