New Jersey Ballots
Will Have No Blanks

Trenton. Y. J.. April 14.-Thoussnds
Of Republicans throughout New Jersey
who had planned to write the anne Of
Colonel Roosevelt upon their primary
ballots as their choice for Presi-
dent. as was done in the Illinois
elections. will find it impossible 70 do
so. Moreover. they will have no OPP
portunity 20 express their Preslden-
tial preferences IN any form.
The muzzlinC of portion OF me
voters OF the state is due TO a miXup
that was passed upon by Attorney Cen
eral John ". Westcctt. The trouble
is due 70 the fact that no petitions
were fled in Trenton, asking that
names be placed on the ballots under
"Choice for President" head.
Attorney General WestcOtt has ruled
that no blank spaces shall be left 70
hermit the voter 10 write in names.
Meanwhile. many ballots have been
printed with the supposedly illegal
blanks upon them Election officials
who either ignored the Attorney Gen
erals ruling. or failed 10 hear OF It
before the ballots were printed, are
credited with responsibility for the
oversight.
The result is that voters in some
districts will be given an opportunity
20 write in their Presidential prefer
ences. while others will not. Threats
of legal action have been made by the
followers o. some candidates. ne
primaries are 20 be held April %.

AMERICA THRILLS
HERAT EXPLORER
Cuchenof Afraid Wonderful
Land Is Only a Dream.

Tanchum Cucnenof, twenty-four-year
old explorer. has rediscovered America.
rounding out a more thrilling voyage
than that Of Columbus. The wonders
he has found on the western shores
are mos. astounding-the telephone,
telegraph. the subway. the Woolworth
Building and Broadway.
Cuchenof learned OF few OF the
marvels OF the present day world while
living in the town Of Herat. a portion
Of tiny principaity sandwiched in
between Afghanisian and Persia. An
American visitor named bernstein had
attempted 20 describe them 20 him, but
he failed mserably.
After many months % planning
Cuchenof escaped from Herat into the
wastes OF Persia early in January.
After spending a month on the backs
Of mules, several days on an apology
FOR boat and an unnamed horse
drawn vehicle. he arrived IN the city OF
krasnovitz. on the Caspian Sea.
/ mere ne lcoh pdNsdEt va AHN SN'"i''
ship Constantine. which encountered
storm that all but ended its career. IL.
floundered about for three days and
then struck reef. from which its pas
songers escaped in lifeboats to Persia.
There Cucherof saw locomotive fo-
the first time. After several days he
reached Petrograd. Finland. sweden
and finally Norway. where he boarded
the biggest ship he had yet seen, the
Frederick VIII. He arrived here on
Thursday.
When Cuchenof opened his eyes and
saw the Statue Of Liberty, fanked by
a ragged skyline Of tall buildings. he
stood too overawed to speak.
From that moment, through his
weary journey. which ended at the
Hebrew Shelter House, at 229 East
Broadway, New York passed before his
eyes in one wonderful review.
1t was when safely behind protecting
walls that Cuchenof freely confessed
his Jewish faith for the first time in
his life. He had been compelled by
the laws OF the Amir outwardly TO en-
brace the faith Of Mahomet.
