Hurley and Schwab Declare Every Efficient Yard Will Have All Work 1t Can
 Do Regardless of War

Washington, November l-Shipbuild- CTS in American wards who may fear that their efforts to provide an emerg- ency fleet are limited by the necesei- ties of war were assured that there would be plenty of work for them fer years to come in statements addressed to them by Chairman Hurley of the shipping board and Director General Schwab of the emergency fleet corpora tion.
 Every efficient yard will continue to have all the work it can do whether the war ends soon or not, Mir. Hur- ley said in his statement. while Mir Schwab warned shipworkers that if Germany were not sincere in its peace overtures, it could want nothing bet ter than & slackening of effort by American shipbuilders.
 The present programme calls for 15.000.00o tons of merchant ships,' said MT. Schwab in his statement. "To- day we have built only about 25o0, 900 tons, and we will not have completed our present programme until six times more work has been done"
 Mir. Hurley pointed out that the end ing of the war could not bring an end to the worlds need for ships ''nor prevent us from carrying out our pro- gramme to a successful conclusion" He declared the shipping board would continue to use all the facilities of shipping that business economy would permit.

YARDS TO KEEP GOING

T can say with frankness," said Mir. Hurley. that our shipyards will be kept going to their capacity and they must not let up. The inefficient plants which have been permitted to operate because of the war emergency and the immediate need of ships, will, as matter of business expediency, drop out when the emergency Is re- moved
 "Efficient yards will be encouraged and supported, because we can depond upon them to carry out their prom ises and produce ships economically. The work inefficient yards cannot do will fall to other plants. We will look to the west coast to continue the pace 1t has maintained and to the yards of the east and south and in the great '9kes region to increase their output Every technical expert and every
 rained executive in the yards owes t to the nation to remain at his post where his services will count most un- til our ship construction programme is completed. There is no ground for uneasiness of either labor of capital now efficiently employed in producing ships. For many years to kome ships, their construction and operation, are to be of absorbing national interest"

gains in end rushes, as did Houck,
these resulting in many first downs
for the Jrs., while J. Murray and E.
Coniston did most of the line plunging
for the Jrs. In the third quarter
Coniston threw a forward to Borrell
and he made a touchdown.
For the Crescents, Kirmyer had the
brunt of the work, especially the line
plunging and punting. Tiernan and
McCabe at guard made good tackles
and also interference for the Jrs.
while Glyn, the other end, made sever.
al good tackles. Wally Mcdonald was
the Crescents' star, making several
good tackles. He made the Crescents

eRANTwooD NOTES.
cIiffside Park Election.

The election of this year was about
the closest ever witnessed in this town.
Although the Democrats won, they did
so easily in the Cliffside section, but in
the Grantwood section Post and Mile
ham ran ahead of them. COhn was
left in the rear in both districts Of the
town.
In Cliffside the vets ran 5 to 1, the
count of that district being 250 to 46.
The drys ran closer in GrantwOOd, the
vote being lat to 1873 against them.
In both sections of the borough the
voters signified that the police de-
served more pay. The cost of po-
liceman's overcoat is $40, and that is
more than their raise for. a month.
In the lower end Of the borough the
vote for the library came out a tie,
each side having 127 votes, but in the
Grantwood section the yes for a Ii
brary had a majority of 81 votes,
therefore the borough will have its
own public library.

THE kELLYWHINE.

The most important election result
in Bergen county was the election in
Fort Lee. The biggest thing that hap
pened in that puny event was the
kellywhine's powerful Grafton on the
world war and the duty of Americans
to stand by the President. The kelly
whine fairly sizzled, and one could
hear it whine out it's beautiful periods
as from the dulcet tones of pipe or
gan in the White organ at Fort Lee.
1t is one of the joys of this. section to
hear kellywhine. A kellywhine is a
cross between the harmony of a B flat
bumblehum and the suction thud of a
COW drawing her hoof out of the mud.
The kellywhine sounded it's pellucid
notes in the Cliffside election also and
passed up it's swill to "that dirty rag
in Palisade" which, it wheeled, did
not support the ticket that got elected.
Also the kellywhine still remembers
the water decision and the e. B. /. A.
and the Palisade Red Cross election
when it took it's medicine like a suck
ing BOBBY baby.

PREMATURE WAR END.

The pent up enthusiasm that broke
loose on Thursday when the United
Press newspapers sent out a prema-
ture bomb that the war was over
touched off about the largest volume
of feeling that ever overcame a great
city. The people were literally wild
with joy, and, though the later news
said the first report was premature,
they were not to be denied, and they
went on celebrating the great event
whether it was true or not. 1t seemed
logical that it should end about Thurs
day noon, and the New York hordes
would believe nothing else. Such
scenes of joy were never before wit
messed anywhere and may never be re-
peated again. Doubtless such spon-
taneous outburst of nations heart
would be impossible again. Circum-
stances all favored just what took
place.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Passaic Scores 1s Points to Cliff
sides 6.

Passaic Scores 13 Points to Cliff
sides 6.
The local High School team, led by
their captain, Arthur Scullion, played
great game on Saturday, but never
theless Passaic carried home the ba-
con with them.
The reason for this was that the
Passaics have played quite a few
games this season, and during the re-
cent epidemic they had practice every
day, while the. Crimson and Black lads
had only week to get back into form
again.
Well, if all the team could play like
their captain the Cliffsiders would
have some team Archies line play
ing, tackling, end running and kick
ing, especially punting, reminds one of
the famous Brickly.
In the third quarter SculliOn threw
a neat forward that went close to 40
yards into the waiting arms of
Cineck, who scored Cliffside's touch
down. Madden was again in the back
field and made several good line
plunges, besides many tackles. Smith
played fine game at tackle. Mazzie
used good judgment, as did Stien, who
took his place when Madden was re-
placed by Mazzie.
AS whole, the team played fine
brand of football, and it is hoped that
they will win this afternoon, when
they play at the Fairgrounds.

LOCAL OPTION IN cLIFFsIDE.

The failure of local option to carry
in the Borough of Cliffside cannot be
explained except on the basis of
greater strength in votes on the side
of the saloons That this element,
backed by an unnamable element, has
a strangle hold on the community goes
with the mere statement of the fact.
Enough has been said on the desira
bility of local option to have forced it
to win in any event. But as long
as a bottle of liquor is a more potent
argument than any other known force
men appear to battle for its possession
whether or no. The whole thing comes
down to a question, not of personal
liberty, but of lacksOf righteousness.
OF the evils of drink we know enough.
The record of Cliffside Park is out
standing. Every voter who cast his
ballot last Tuesday piled it up on the
mountain of crime that already dis
graces the borough. If men would
drink moderately, if they would not
make hogs of themselves, If they could
resist temptation long enough to look
reason in the face, it would not prove
such an evil One drink does not kill.
1t is in the danger of forming the
must habit that harbors the evils of
alcohol AS long as man can lift
his foot to the fourth rail he can get
his gullet filled in any saloon any
where. His condition makes no differ
ence to the man who sells liquor. Sa-
looms do not prosper on sober men, or.
on the moderate drinking class.
At any rate there is yet another
chance, and the friends of order
should not despair.

NAPoLEoN's LACK OF VISION.

The Westminster Gazette recently
published statement alleged to have
come from Napoleon I. 1t had refer
ence to the reign of the Hohenzollerns
and is as follows:
II made the greatest mistake of my
career. when 1 had the opportunity
that 1 did not remove the HohenzOl-
-lerns from the throne of Prussia. As
long as this house reigns, and until
the red cap of liberty is erected in
Germany, there will be no peace for
Europe"
With all of Napoleon's great abili-
ties as soldier and philosopher he
did not possess sufficient vision to
foresee what he later said he re-
gretted.

CONGRESS REPUBLICAN.

1t win be disappointment to the
administration that the election re-
turned a Republican instead of a
Democratic Congress. While there
was a widespread feeling that the
President should have had a sustain
ing Congress, there was another ele-
ment that thought otherwise, and so
the two-party system of the country
merely evened things up. That's all.
1t is a habit this country has of play
ing seesaw in politics. Taking away
the rancor raised by Roosevelt and
there is nothing to regret over the re-
suits of the election. Mr.. Wilson is
still President and the country's ac-
knowledged leader. He belongs to all
the people and as such will be respect
ed and honored. His eminent abilities
are everywhere recognized, and he
comes out of the war with glory
enough to satisfy everybody but
Roosevelt, who has long awaited the
opportunity to hit him back for all the
snubbing he has received--a snubbing
that never really existed.
At any rate the election is over, and
so is the war virtually. Let us move
on to still higher ideals than those that
have made America the greatest and
most loved of all nations the world has
ever had The universal brotherhood
of man may never come, but this coun-
try has come more nearly making it a
living reality than any other influence

whose duties lead them to- want the
law not enforced, but who would be
forced to themselves obey the law
were it made operative. So far as law
goes, there are already enough
"Don'ts" on the books, and any more
interference with public rights would
be offensive. The automobile was
made to get around with, regardless
of all other considerations. Take, for
instance, our own town folks. How

VILLAGE GOSSIP

MIR. Paul Brady, now at Princeton
taking an intensive course in aviation,
writes that he is getting into the thick
of the thing, and is liking the work
immensely. He hopes to get COM
mission before he gets his walking pa
pers into some other branch of the
service that is more active than mere
ly learning how to drive an airplane.
Paul wants some of the excitement of
chasing Huns across the lines and
bringing down a few of the enemy en-
gagged in similar work.
Little Lester Burdett thinks he is a
lieutenant in the army. He is now
six years old, and his folks are humor-
ing the little man by not disillusion-
ing him. The other day some one told
him his uncle, Paul Brady, was a pri-
vate in the aviation corps at Prince

RoosEvELTA SORRY SPECTACLE

Ever since the United States entered
the war Democratic as well as Repub-
lican members of the present Con-
gress have been entreated by, and in
some instances have yielded to, influ-
ences as selfish as those which have
made Mr. Roosevelt ONE OF THE
SORRIEST SPECTACLES of our pub
tic life, but the great majority have
stood fast and true That it will be
SO in the new Congress, irrespective OF
/. party, we are confident.
1t has pleased Mr.. Roosevelt to
adopt form of partisanship which
is PRUSSIAN THROUGH AND
THROUGH TO THE EXTREME OF
JUNKERISM. While autocracy in
Europe has been crumbling he has
been POSING IN AMERICA AS ONE
AMOUNTED WITH THE HOLY OILS
OF DIVINE RIGHT. In his attitude
toward the government Of the United
States and it's conduct of the war he
HAS BEEN STUDIOUSLY INSULT
ING AND MALICIOUS. He has Be
LITTLED TRIUMPHS which have
WON THE HOMAGE OF EVERY
FREE NATION and carried TERROR
TO THE HEART OF THE ENEMY.
From the beginning of the war to the
present hour of victory he has had no
word of commentator for anybody
but himself, NO PRAISE BUT HIS
OWN BRAGGART SELF PRAISE, no
appreciation except for the easily
moved throngs which have APPLAUD
ED HIS CONTEMPTIBLE AND ALL
BUT SEDITIOUS WORDS.
The new Congress will have to deal
with the questions of peace and recon-
structiOn. No doubt it will be assail-
ed on all sides by the forces of reac-
tiOn and greed, Of which MIR. ROOSE-
WELT is THE ADVANCE AGENT.
No doubt, withfa Presidential election
coming before'the end Of it's term, the
disposition to play politics will be pro-
nOunced But whatever it's nominal
political complexion may be, we be-
lieve that it's actual ruling majority
will be made up of Democrats and Re
publicans who are FIRST OF ALL
AMERICANS, and that on every great
issue involving the rights and security
of the people that majority, cO-operat-
ing with the President, will be as
much inclined to sink partisanship as
the brave soldiers and sailors who
under his leadership have helped
nightly in conquering a just and
glorious peace.
A Congress made up of Republican
and Democratic Roosevelts would be
a CALAMITOUS MIXTURE OF AU-
TOCRATIC PRUSSIANISM AND
TURBULENT RUSSIANISM. A Con-
gress made up largely of real Repub-
licans and real Democrats, no matter
what their relative strength, will OF
necessity be so overwhelmingly devot-
ed to the support of the United States
government that the comparatively
few TREACHEROUS ROOSEVELTS
will hardly figure on vital roll call.
Although Theodore Roosevelt may
DAMN HIMSELF FOREVER WITH
HIS SPLEEN, HIS ENVY, HIS JEAL-
OUSY AND HIS PERFIDY, we have
faith enough in the Republican party
to predict that, whatever its circum-
. stances may be, it WILL NOT FOL-
Low HIM TO POLITICAL PERDI-
TION--New York World.
