Mr. Raymond sat at the ringside
as Weinert went through his stunts
and the mayor marvelled and dis
cussed the fistic display of clev-
erness of the young man as he boxed
with Johnny Saxon and Boer Rodel.
The chief executive declared Weinert
to be the cleverest boxer he has ever
seen, and on leaving he wished the
young man all the luck and success
in the world. Weinert was tickled to
know the mayor and to learn that
he was such a warm friend of box

C
Weinert is training hard and faith
fully for his bout with Dillon. He
takes long run on the road every
morning and he works out at TroX-
ler's in the afternoon. He is making
10 o'clock his hour for retiring to his
slumbering couch and those who are
close to him say he is taking things
more seriously for the Dillon match
than for any of his previous matches.
Yet withal, he is very confident. He
says he will win and that he will be
in shape to fight ten rounds at top
speed if he has to. He realizes that
Dillon is tough game and that he
must dispose of the "Bearcat" in at
least scientific way if he hopes to
receive attention from Frank Moran,
the big contender at present for Will
lard's title. Though Dillon beat him
on previous occasion, Weinert de-
clares it was a fluke and that he will
prove his superiority beyond doubt
next Monday night.

Betting on the outcome of the battle
favors Dillon, though Weinert has a
lot of followers. A few wagers at even
money have been made that Dillon
will knock Weinert out and other bets

Mayor Thomas L. Raymond is a
boxing enthusiast and he makes no
bones about it. He declared during
a conversation at Gus Troxler's gmy-
nasium yesterday afternoon that he
! was very much in favor of the sport
and that boxing bouts would be per-
mitted in this city if the matter was
up TO him.
"You know | like boxing and be-
lieve it is one of the most interesting
of sports" Mayor Raymond said, land
know of no good reason why we
shouldn't enjoy exhibitions of the art
of self-defense right here in Newark.
For my part | would like to see the
game flourish, and | promise you |
wouldn't miss many shows. But
it is not for me to say that boxing be
permitted. That seems to be up to
the prosecutor.

Charley Weinert go through his train
ing stunts in preparation for his bout
with Jack Dillon, the "Indianapolis
Bearcat," which is to be held in Mad
ison Square Garden next Monday
night. With the mayor was r. Erie
Moody, his secretary, who is a very
good golfer and who also likes boxing.
The mayor arrived early at Troxler's
and he remained until Weinert had
finished his labors. He enjoyed every
moment of his stay and he held a long
conversation with Weinert and gave
the young man with the penchant for
cabarets some good solid advice Mr..
Raymond has been an admirer of
Weinert for a long while, but it was
the first time that he had ever seen
the seeker of the championship in
action. Now he admires Weinert all
the more.
c
Weinert as the champion of the
world would be great thing for
Newark, and some day this ambition
may be realized. Mayor Raymond
thinks so, and he says SO. for. as
chief executive, he is naturally very
proud of his own city. And Weinert
may be the champion. He has every
thing in a boxing way a champion
should have, though he lacks just now

Road superintendent knight
Makes Reply.

Mr.. Beverly R. Codwise, Washington Grove,
Maryland.
Dear Sir Il have your letter of June
18th. We do not seem to be very wide
apart in our views as to this road, either
in respect to its past or what should be
done in the future. AS see it, our figures
are practically the same and divergence
chiefly in the application of them for COM
parison. As to the expenditure for repairs
on the first and second sections, the books
show no distribution as to sections, simply
lump them under the head of sections I, 2
and 3. This, however. is immaterial, and
! agree with you entirely in condemning
the original construction and in the advis-
ability of better and more permanent
form of construction.
think you misunderstood my attitude
towards this reconstruction. My estimate
was based on plain macadam with heavy
tar surface because | was informed it
would be impossible to obtain sufficient
funds for tar concrete. and purposely and
plainly stated it was. not as permanent nor
as durable form of construction as was
required by the traffic. although provided
for wider road and heavier construction
than the original. with heavy tar surface,
which, though more expensive. is more
durable than tarvia b.
1t would unquestiOnably have been best
to have had bond issue in 1918, and steps
were taken to that end. The advertise
ment required was made. but. II remem-
Der Alright. it was withdrawn at the in
stance of representatives of the First dis
trict, and Mr.. Hutton, the then Commits
sioner, was urged to spend the available
funds for a section of tar concrete, which,
If proven good. it was then stated, there
would be no doubt a sufficient bond issue
would carry for the construction of the
entire road in that manner.
The section that was built is showing its
good qualities and. as you state. is prov
ing its value" and. in my opinion, the
expenditure was proper application of
the funds and it would have been wasteful
to have spent any part of this money for
temporary repairs. Unquestionably the
work could have been done at less pro
rata cost if the entire road had been re-
constructed, though do not think at a
much lower cost, as you indicate.
do not think we could be in quite the
condition Col Sellers portrayed. as. if the
road is properly maintained. we would have
at least go per cent. of the value of its
original cost remaining when the bonds
have all been paid. That is, the grading,
drainage and base course.
In conclusion. il ought to be well under
stood that plans suggested or adopted are
largely controlled by the means that are
available and not because deemed best
only the best Obtainable.
am very respectfully,

macadam roads, it would yield about $40
per mile. This then would give for this
road $515 per mile for maintenance. But
these funds cannot be used for reconstruc-
ton of this road. as has been done. and
have them for maintenance also.
l deny there has been any misapplica-
ton of funds. and the facts have quoted
prove such statements unwaranted.
In addition to the incorrect statements
in your letter. it was stated am told,
that the defective tar was paid for. This
is untrue. The records show a deduction
of $354.38 on this account. and a deduc-
ton of $165.25. the cost of placing and
removing defective work.
There may have been other equally erro-
neous statements. all from lack of infor-
nation. but am at loss to understand
why, with every means to verify what you
state, you have so distorted the facts as
is evidenced in your letter.
am aware that the special tax to cover
the cost of reconstruction of this road
would be somewhat heavy on the large
taxpayers, being So for each thousand
they are assessed. and it would probably
cost you $l2 or SIS, but there are more
than a majority Of the taxpayers whom it
would cost much less, and who, | believe
